Watch: Flying Saucer Attack “Instrumental No 7”

Flying Saucer Attack will return this year to release Instrumentals 2015 on July 17th via Domino. This will be David Pearce‘s first album in fifteen years, and his first long player for Domino since 1997’s New Lands. The upcoming work will find the devout home recordist presenting fifteen new tracks of solo guitar, organized to present a nuanced emotional arc that promises an “impressionistic narrative” thru “excoriating dronescapes”, “rueful introspection”, and “redemptive cadences”. Writer/director Peter Strickland is responsible for the visuals here, and using grainy, filmic stills captured in the rural country-side of Hungary, he focuses on opaque details from these photos to sketch his elusive and mysterious story. Strickland explains:

“My first ever music video for a band that I’m very glad to see the return of. Within the Great Plains of Hungary, one can almost hear this music resonating far away in the endless expanse. Three of us in the flatfield for three days with Flying Saucer Attack on our headphones and trying to remember how to use light meters whilst observing a world that mankind is gradually departing from.”
