The Kills - Satellite

Transatlantic rock band, The Kills are back on the scene and are setting the sights on their upcoming fourth studio-album Blood Pressures – due April 4 ROW and one day later in the U.S. via Domino. The band offers the LP’s first single “Satellite” as a stream and add some information to it. Read and listen below.

For the sessions that became Blood Pressures, Jamie and Alison returned to Key Club Studios, Michigan where they reunited with Midnight Boom engineers Bill Skibbe and Jessica Ruffins. Produced by Jamie Hince, the album was mixed in London by Tom Elmhirst.

For fans of the street hassle swagger and sass that has come to be associated with The Kills, it’s all still alive and well in their new material, but with an added depth and thoughtfulness which is undoubtedly reflected in the, at times, frankly heartbreaking lyrics. The Kills haven’t disposed of their edgy rock identity, they’ve merely built upon it and created something even more special.
