Recorded at a place called 'Feedback Studios' in Bristol this is a collection of B Sides and otherwise unreleased material the titles of which are as follows:
oceans, standing stone, crystal shade, instrumental wish, distance, november mist, souring high, oceans 2.
This album comes out every autumn for me and it's what you might call 'rural psychadelia' (though'noisenik' is another term also used). Not a single lyric is discernable. 'Standing Stone' inparticular sounds like the pure white light bleeding through.

Attempting to fuse the irresistible force of white noise with the immovable object of mopey UK folk, FSA conjure spells that are rarely heard in such pure form- i.e. without silly affectation. Impossibly beautiful stuff covering a surprisingly rich and diverse territory.
