The Swedish punkrock legend SATOR is releasing a split EP with the high (rock'n) rollers and punk rockers THE HEADLINES: a long-overdue matter of the heart and friendship! After all, it was Sator band founder Chips Kiesbye who recognized the musical potential and the wild, unbridled power of The Headlines more than 15 years ago. This was followed by support shows, and to this day, Chips produces and supports the band in the studio. SATOR will always be role models and idols for THE HEADLINES. The two xclusive songs from each band on the limited 10-inch vinyl span the range from hard rock, sleaze, glam to straight forward punk rock. These two tracks from The Headlines are to be seen as the essence of the band, on one side you have the rough rocking hint to the past in "Fucked up" and then there's the American sounding Melodic Punk "True Grit". Elsewhere SATOR presents "Thanks (For nothing for all)", a long-ago written angry steamroller that somehow got forgotten as a demo in the band archives. While recording the last album, the band stumbled upon this gem and re-recorded it. "We can't really remember what we were angry about during the writing, but there's always something that annoys you. Anger is never out of fashion." (Chips Kiesbye) "I only want a date" was also recorded during the same studio sessions and is a cover of the US band "The Embarrassment", which released the sought-after song on tape only in 1984. The 10-inch vinyl will be available as classic black or blue colored vinyl, best Alternative Rock from Sweden one gets!
