We People Space with Phantoms is the second album recorded by the Chicago-based No wave band, The Scissor Girls. The album was recorded with the original Scissor Girls lineup, consisting of Azita Youssefi on bass guitar and vocal, SueAnne Zollinger on guitar, and Heather Melowic on drums. This was the final recording to include Zollinger, who left the band following the album's second recording session due to internal conflicts with band members. She was replaced by new member Kelly Kuvo, while the album sat unreleased for two years before the Scissor Girls were able to find a label willing to release the material. Finally, in 1996 the Atatvistic record label agreed to issue the album. Kurt Kellison of Atavistic then offered the Scissor Girls a chance to record two further albums for the indie label, an offer which Youssefi and Melowic accepted, but which Kuvo declined.[2]
