The Satelliters "Sexplosive!" 2001

"...a real joyride and a half, with its incredibly snappy songs that make you want todance, sing and shout with excitement."..
...Although The Satelliters are a contemporary band, you would swear they were born andbred in 1966. Sticking to the basics, this live wire German combo doles out mean andlean garage rock--the sort of fare "Teenage Shutdown" characters like The Syndicate, The Burgundy Runn, The Preachers, The Human Beings, The Jackson Investment Company, and Ognir and The Nite People which never fail to tickle our fancies. The most recent album from The Satelliters, "Sexplosive!" stands to be a real joyride and a half, with its incredibly snappy songs that make you want to dance, sing and shout with excitement. Original tunes such as "When I Arrive," "Your Lies," "Now You Want Me Girl," and "Sorrow Minus One" prove the band knows their stuff from front to back, back to front. They've been tutored by the best of the bunch, yet they don't sound as if they're just pale imitations of their idols because they manage to translate their own colorful personality into the performance.
Routed by sneering vocals that decidedly cop an attitude from Sky Saxon of The Seeds, "Sexplosive!" offers everything great there is about pure as snow garage rock, from the screaming harmonies to the bouncy organ washes. Lots of heated guitar work also fuels the disc, be it buzzing fuzztone licks or the twelve-string jangle of a Rickenbacker. As well, the hooks are nailed in all the right places. "Sexplosive!" is indeed sexy and explosive! - Beverly Patton, The Lance Monthly, USA
