Six Finger Satellite Discography of CDs

Six Finger Satellite music CDs Continuing without John (aka Juan) MacLean, J. Ryan and Rick Pelletier reunited in 2009 with new recruits for the re-recording and release of 2001's shelved LP, HALF CONTROL. Actually, the noisy, Moog-driven post-punk on display here represents a logical continuation of the sound Six Finger Satellite aborted after 1998's LAW OF RUINS. (The movement they were a part of ultimately splintered into purely ...

Six Finger Satellite discography Six Finger Satellite's final opus (and it is an opus) sees them taking their willfully abrasive terrorism to its logical end by extending their short jabs of no-holds-barred noise rock into space rock territory. Along the way, the band further hones some of the riff-based guitar skronk featured on Severe Exposure and Paranormalized, trying their hands at guitar-less sci-fi creepiness, picking up flashes ...

Six Finger Satellite songs Just when you thought Six Finger Satellite's noise mongering had crested on 1995's Severe Exposure, they returned the following year with more ugliness, more abrasion and more skull-shaking absurdity filtered through a dark sense of humor that couldn't be any more black. There's less reliance on guitars, placed in favor of more of the confrontational keyboards used to lesser extents on the band's ...

Six Finger Satellite CD discography Sub Pop aficionados must have been caught more than a little off-guard to not hear something akin to Screaming Trees or Mudhoney after initially plopping The Pigeon Is the Most Popular Bird on their turntables.

Although there isn't much sonic variety -- and some of their attempts at humor are downright ...

Six Finger Satellite CD discography It is a bit of a cliché now to speak of a Load label sound -- especially since there's always been plenty of variety within that outfit and noise rock as a whole, and because some bands, like Houston's Rusted Shut, have been going for ages and ages well before the label got going in the first place. Dead proves both descriptions to ...

Six Finger Satellite albums For his second solo album, Just Fred, Fred Schneider abandoned the dance-influenced pop/rock of his debut and hired indie-rock star Steve Albini as producer, who brought in such edgy guitar rock bands as Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet, Six Finger Satellite, and Deadly Cupcake -- which features Russell Simins from the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Rick Sims of the Didjits and the Supersuckers, and Tom Zaluckyj of Tar -- as support. Schneider and Albini recorded the album in two weeks, which meant nearly every song was a first take. The result is a surprisingly enjoyable fusion of Schneider's bizarre charm and lean, loud alternative rock that proudly illustrates ...
