Travel 'Southeast Of Saturn' With 90s Detroit Space-Rock & Shoegaze Sounds

Third Man Records has released Southeast of Saturn, a collection of music from Detroit’s Space-Rock/Shoegaze/Dream pop scene of the ‘90s. You ca stream the album or purchase standard black vinyl. Exclusive limited edition copies of Southeast Of Saturn on Deep Space Dark/Aqua Wave colored vinyl are available in select independent record stores across the US and in UK/EU, as well as in both Nashville and Detroit storefronts. The music of Southeast Of Saturn did not arise organically from metro Detroit’s fertile soil, Third Man explains. Locally, garage-rock, goth-rock, neo-hippie groups, and the bar bands dominated the landscape. Thirsty Forest Animals guitarist Andrew Peters summarizes the prevalent attitude among the Motor City’s Space-Rock contingent: “I don’t think we really noticed the local Detroit scene earlier on. We were more into the bands you would see in the NME / Melody Maker, zines, and records - mostly from the UK - on the walls at Play It Again”. Even the best-known artists on Southeast Of Saturn, Windy & Carl, Majesty Crush, Füxa, never achieved mainstream success, but within the rock underground, they inspired a cultish devotion that still lives. If you missed their output the first time around, this compilation will get you up to speed over its 19 tracks.
