Pascagoula (band)

Pascagoula are a four piece doom band based in Brighton UK. There is a lot of mystery surrounding the band regarding it's inception. The members insist that they struggled finding a name and "that one was as good as any" "we got a map of the US and pointed to a location this was what came up. Other sources say that the name refers to a possible alien abduction experience that the members had while on a camping trip to the lake district in 2006. Pascagoula, Jackson County, Mississippi is where on the evening of October 11, 1973, 42-year-old Charles Hickson and 19-year-old Calvin Parker — co-workers at a shipyard — were fishing off a pier on the west bank of the Pascagoula River in Mississippi. They heard a whirring/whizzing sound, saw two flashing blue lights, and reported that an oval shaped "craft", some 8 feet across and 8 or more feet high, suddenly appeared near them.[1] The ship seemed to levitate about 2 feet above the ground.
