Pale Saints

Pale Saints is a Alternative group from United Kingdom, formed on January 1, 1987.

Pale Saints was a British shoegaze band formed by Ian Masters (bass/vocals), Graeme Naysmith (guitar), and Chris Cooper (drums). They began as a three-piece band based in Leeds, England, in 1987. The band was signed to 4AD records by 4AD chief Ivo after their first London show. They were amongst a number of groups in the nineties who were dubbed as shoegaze by the NME and Melody Maker. Early band interviews showed them to be a fun-loving bunch in contrast to their dark, lyrically pessimistic pop music. .
