Flying Saucer Attack Return With Instrumentals 2015, First Album in Fifteen Years

Pioneering British space rock outfit Flying Saucer Attack have announced Instrumentals 2015, their first album in fifteen years. It’ll be out July 17 via Drag City and Domino. It follows 2000′s Mirror, and features fifteen instrumentals written solely by guitarist David Pearce. There’s also a video for album cut “Instrumental 7″, which you can watch below.

The video was directed by Peter Strickland (Berberian Sound Studio, The Duke of Burgundy), and is composed of black-and-white photography. “My first ever music video for a band that I’m very glad to see the return of,” Strickland said in a press release. “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.”

The cover art, which you can see below, was designed by Pearce’s sisters, Erin and Tamsin.
