you couldn't rockstar anyone
Saturna, whose ...All Night EP I reviewed in November, are a Portland-based band who are on the make. Their first full-length album, Some Delicious Enemy, will be released in June and is already attracting a bit of buzz in the music blog universe.
Saturna's sound is a mixture of Catherine Wheel and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, both big favorites of this blog. The album opener, "Roll Down", with its slow start and explosion into a wall of sound could easily fit in on a CW album, while "Pop Rocks" with its gangly sound and plenty of cowbell, wouldn't be out of place on the first BRMC album. However, the boys put their own twist on the psychadelic, dreamy, shoegazey type-rock on Some Delicious Enemy, and the whole album is excellent.
Check out these tracks from the upcoming album Some Delicious Enemy and look out for Saturna.

I REALLY like the tired and epic sound of "Roll Down." And the new banner is damn sweet too!
me too. Roll Down is amazing, and yeah, that picture is really beautiful.
