Satellite State – Satellite State — Independent, 2008

Four-song EP from this U.K. band that will be sure to make waves across the globe. Imagine yourself driving down the highway, maybe a bit too fast. This would be a perfect companion on a moonlit night. Not that the band condones breaking the law at all! "One Small Step" is a top notch rocker, but all the songs here are solid. Fans of Trashcan Sinatras and Aztec Camera would be thrilled to add this into their collection. Expect more great things from this outfit in the future.
