Internationally recognized as torchbearers in the contemporary space rock scene, Farflung have been altering people's minds with their hugely psychedelic yet fuel-driven space-rock for over twenty years now. Their aptly-titled debut 25,000 Feet Per Second (1995) 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 (former Queens Of The Stone Age & Eagles Of Death Metal), and to share the stage alongside The Melvins, Voivod, Fu Manchu, Nebula, Amon Duul and many others. 5 features the likes of Nik Turner, Jensen Bell, David Catching, Gene Trautmann. It was recorded at Saturn Moon studio, Tarantula Ranch and Rancho de la Luna, conferring the record this recognizable desert-like sound. "Farflung are one of the heaviest - especially adjusted for Earth gravity - bands in Los Angeles and have learned well from the explorations of ancient astronauts like Hawkwind and Chrome." - L.A.
