EP "IT CAME TO ME" Release-date: OUT NOW!! Distribution: Brokensilence/ GER Our long friendship with Traxman ("Gaunermaschge") and sure his good taste finally led to this first release on his fabulous label SOUNDFLAT RECORDS. THE SATELLITERS present four exclusive and non-LP-tracks on this brandnew EP called "IT CAME TO ME". They laid down 3 original songs (Nice, Everydays´s Mourning and Cry, Cry, Cry) plus a smashing cover of the Q65`s "It came to me" which final mix and the fact that the Q65 are one of their fave bands lead them to put it up as the title-track of the EP. This EP has it all: Pounding beats, driving harp, cheesy organs and gunloads of FUZZ. Cover-art: T.Eschweiler!

Geschrieben von Tor Loewenherz, Samstag, 04 März 2006: Und dann der Act, wegen dem ich die 200 Meter auf mich genommen hatte: "The Satelliters". Ein kompletter Umbau verwandelte die Bühne vom Equipement her in einen Sixties Beatkeller. Und genauso ging es ab. Die Darmstädter zogen gnadenlos authentisch ihre fulminante Show ab: kurz, schnell und hart jagte ein Song den nächsten. Innerhalb kürzester Zeit verwandelte sich der Platz vor der Bühne in einen Hexenkessel, wo selbst eingeschworene Fans der anderen Bands wild pogten. Schweisstreibender Beat vom Feinsten. Begeisterte Schreie brachten noch die ein oder andere Zugabe zustande, bis ich glücklich die Musikhalle verließ. Rock'n'Roll is not dead!
REVIEW of "WHERE DO WE GO", January 2009 LA Vinyl Records Examiner "Take a psychedelic trip with the Satelliters, Germany's high priests of fuzz" by Jason Gelt, LA Vinyl Records Examiner The Satelliters have endured lineup changes and one major image adjustment but through it all their status as a kick-ass German garage rock outfit has stayed constant as the circling of the planets. Since their first seven-inch in 1994, their distinctive pop hooks and fuzz-laden guitar riffs have grown richer and sweeter. Taking a cue from theatrical Bay Area budget rockers like the Mummies, the Ripoffs and the Trashwomen, the Satelliters started their career clad in matching black leather fetish masks and noir outfits. But their songs were always more polished and evolved than their San Francisco brethren, even when they pounded out crude punk rock whoppers like "I Hate You," on their 1995 Pinup Records 10," a split with the surf-rockin' Astronauts. Fourteen years later the Satelliters have shed the masks, but their music has remained constant in its quality, as evidenced by the band's ninth album, available for a limited time in a chocolate-swirled vinyl re-pressing from Burbank's own Dionysus Records. The album gets off to a rousing start with "Abba," (watch the thrilling YouTube video below) and continues apace with a slew of atmospheric, psychedelic-infused stompers, including the triumphant title song, the diamond-sharp "You Cannot See," and the churning, keyboard-punctuated "Hey." Known for audiophile-friendly mastering and a genuine affection for the colorful tradition of vinyl records, Dionysus is -- now that Sympathy for the Record Industry has left the building -- one of LA's final remaining high-class independent record labels. Check out their catalog of stellar releases -- including early L.A. punk like the Controllers and the Rotters, sinuous Exotica like Chaino and current garage rock luminaries like the Satelliters HERE	THE SATELLITERS "WHY DO THEY KNOW" from our LP/CD "WHERE DO WE GO?", a film by TIMOTHY GASSEN of Purple Cactus/ Marshmallow Overcoat!!
