Earthling Society

Earthling Society were an English space rock band formed in Fleetwood, England in January 2004 by vocalist/guitarist Fred Laird and drummer Jon Blacow with bassist, David Fyall. The band's debut album Albion was self-recorded by the band on its own 8 track studio and Santiago, Chile's Mylodon Records, were set to release the album in March 2005 before pulling out. When the band was seeking a deal for their next album, Berlin-based Nasoni Records heard Albion and released it on CD and vinyl formats. In August 2005 it was album of the month on Julian Cope's Head Heritage website, Cope stating that "Earthling Society is a 21st century guitar/bass/drums trio from Blackpool, in the north-west of England, that multi-tracks itself in such a manner that its debut album ALBION comes on more like your typical Krautrock commune ensemble than the Blue Cheer, Grand Funk and High Rise heart attack that the power trio line-up would suggest." The band added keyboard player Joe Orban to its line up and released a follow-up on Nasoni Plastic Jesus And The Third Eye Blind after supporting Cope on his 2006 "Dark Orgasm" tour. Subsequently, Irish keyboard player Kevy Canavan replaced Orban.
