Air Formation are an English Shoegazing/Space rock band that debuted with their first 7" in the summer of 1998. Highly inspired by bands like Flying Saucer Attack, Spacemen 3, and The Jesus and Mary Chain, their music incorporates heavily delayed guitar and feedback, droning keyboards, and soft, almost whispered vocals. Over the past seven years they have released three albums, two EPs, and three 7" singles. In September 2008 they will release a new 7" single through Distant Noise Records. The band continue to work on their next highly anticipated album. . . .
