Pale Saints began their existence as a three-piece ethereal pop band based in Leeds, England. Forming in 1987, the band was signed to 4AD records after their first London show by 4AD chief Ivo. Early band interviews showed them to be a fun-loving bunch in contrast to their dark, lyrically pessimistic pop music. They described themselves as enthusiastic football fans and were perpetually excited about touring. Lead vocalist Ian Masters was often wont to gratuitously lie in interviews, helping the group to successfully build up a certain party reputation.
