Hot on the heels of their Jade Tree debut album, Anaesthetic, (which the New York Times named as one of its top underground releases of 2001) MILEMARKER are back with a six-song mini album/maxi EP showing that high-velocity progress is the MILEMARKER steez. Half of Satanic Versus was recorded in Chicago with Steve Albini (NIRVANA, PIXIES, PJ HARVEY) at monolithic Electrical Audio - three songs deliver on the promise of the live shows -- bombastic heaviness, drone epics, flailing anthems and polemics aplenty. The flipside is the three songs the band self-recorded -- three various and sundry electro-jams, alternately recalling the precision and coldness of KRAFTWERK and the crunktastic party-vibe of "Around the World in a Day"-era PRINCE AND THE REVOLUTION.
