The Satelliters [Darmstadt] / Half Humans [Limburg]

60s-garage-acid Digging bands like The Sonics, The Kinks, The Seeds, Remains, Shadows Of Knight, Blues Magoos, The Standells, Kenny & The Kasuals, The Byrds and tons more the band started rehearsing in March 1993 with all the well-known and beloved cover-versions. Half a year later they decided to call themselves THE SATELLITERS and started to develop their own interpretations from first trashy and then originated 60's influenced garage-rock to create their very own “60s-garage-acid”-style.

THE SATELLITERS always tried to give all their influences enough space in their song-writing, always keeping touch to the sound of original US-60s-garage-bands. From R'N'B to organ-driven garage tunes or psyched-out material: the mixture of all the beloved styles of the 60's is what they like and play!!!

First releases on international and german garage-labels followed soon, before they achieved a record-deal with California´s cult-garage-surf-exotica label DIONYSUS RECORDS. After 9 critically acclaimed LPs/ CDs (raving reviews in CREEM, ROLLING STONE, VISIONS, OX Fanzine, SHINDIG and many more) plus several compilation-tracks and nearly a dozen singles THE SATELLITERS cranked out another bunch of fuzz-loaded, farfisa- and blues-harp-driven 60s garage-punk-tunes which show that they definitely belong to the finest garage-bands around.

The latest recordings “NOTHING LEFT TO TELL” (2-track-45 on SOUNDFLAT RECORDS/ Germany) and “ZAHSTETHOMALEX” (LP/ CD on SOUNDFLAT RECORDS/ Germany) definitel
