Saturn To Release New Album In Spring
Sweden's Saturn have announced the impending new studio effort "Beyond Spectra," which will be issued on March 31st via Rise Above Records.
Disciples of the heavy metal code don't just love the music, they need it: to maintain a cultural, personal and - perhaps most importantly - cosmic equilibrium. As a result, there is nothing more essential to our musical lives than bands that tap into our beloved genre's purest essence and re-imagine that primal magic in brand new and gloriously vivid hues. Saturn more than fits the bill.
Having already proved its worth and potential three years ago with the stunning debut album "Ascending," this young band has evolved into something truly extraordinary this time round. In stark contrast to many retro-minded records currently doing the rounds, "Beyond Spectra" offers much more than affectionate pastiche and Luddite petulance. Instead, this is the sound of red-blooded heavy metal with its eyes focused on the depths of outer space, as the rampaging grooves and analogue hiss of prime '70s proto-doom, the swaggering boogie braggadocio of UFO and the stately grandeur of Sad Wings-era Priest collide in a mesmerizing shower of irresistible riffs, unearthly melodies and moments of shimmering psychedelia.

Saturn To Release "Ascending (Live In Space)"
Saturn is due to release "Ascending (Live in Space)" this coming August 5th in North America on Rise Above Records. The label comments:
"Heavy metal isn't rocket science. The genre's fundamental values and sonic staples may have been continually refined and redefined over the last four decades, but its core components remain the same as ever: volume, power, passion and imagination. And that's where Saturn come in. While metal's diversity has never been greater, there will always be something exhilarating about hearing a young band channeling the effervescent spirit of heavy music's founding fathers; adding enough of their own identity to side-step dead-eyed repetition, but always exhibiting a profound love for and understanding of what makes the best music engage, endure and enlighten. Saturn's debut album Ascending encapsulates that idea with exquisitely naturalistic fervor. This is sound of the past, present and future colliding in a shower of riffs, melodies and otherworldly magic.
"Drawn from a steady diet of Sabbath, UFO, Budgie, Deep Purple, Rainbow and, perhaps most importantly, the Judas Priest of Sad Wings Of Destiny and Sin After Sin, the Saturn sound is one that declares a sincere and unapologetic debt to the greats of a bygone era, but this is no lazy exercise in retro posturing. Instead, Ascending conjures its own distinctive world of epic grandeur and gritty oomph via the dexterous weaving of ageless, hallowed ingredients and a jolting injection of contemporary exuberance and verve. Songs like 'Rokktori' and 'Tower Of Terror' exude both a deep affinity with the blues and an intuitive grasp of what occurred when metal's original blueprint mutated into the tougher tirades of NWOBHM."
