Recovering the Satellites

A heavier, more restless follow up to their debut. Swirling organ and dual guitars anchor a raw exploration of fame, isolation, and the search for home.

October 14, 1996 · Geffen Records

A restless and vulnerable exploration of displacement, balancing aggressive rock energy with fragile, piano-led introspection.

Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive transition from the delicate piano intro to the crashing wall of guitars in the opening track
The way the vocals fray and crack during the desperate refrain of Have You Seen Me Lately
The sudden, hushed intimacy of the final acoustic track that ends the album on a fragile note
