Internationally
recognized as torchbearers in the contemporary space rock scene,
championed by the likes of Helios Creed of Chrome, Henry Rollins or
Voivod - who
curated them at Roadburn 2012 - FARFLUNG have been altering people's minds with their psychedelic brew of fuel-driven space rock for over twenty years now.
Their 1995 aptly-titled debut 25,000 Feet Per Second immediately
placed them at the forefront of the rock underground,
leading them to collaborate with numerous iconic musicians such as
Nik Turner (Hawkwind),
Dave Catching and Gene Trautmann (Queens Of The Stone Age & Eagles
Of Death Metal),
Damo Suzuki (Can),
or Andy Colquhoun (The Pink Faries, Deviants, Warsaw Pakt). Throughout
the years, they have shared the stage with The Melvins, Voivod, Fu
Manchu, Nebula, Amon Duul, Hawkwind, Silver Apples and many others...
FARFLUNG's last full-length A Wound In Eternity
came out in 2008, after what the five-piece put out a serie of quality
split records with White Hills (2012), Black Rainbows (2013) and
California's brothers-in-sound Fatso Jetson (2015). This year will see
the return of one of the most substantial songwriting teams in today's
rock world, with the release of upcoming new album 5 on European rock powerhouse Heavy Psych Sounds.
This new album 5
will feature guest appearances by the likes of Nik Turner (Hawkwind),
David Catching (QOTSA, EODM) and Gene Trautmann (QOTSA, EODM). It was
recorded at Saturn Moon Studio, Tarantula Ranch and Rancho de la Luna,
conferring upon the record a recognizable desert sound.
