They subsequently released two cover songs paying tribute to Type O Negative, which charted on metal radio.The band recently concluded writing and recording their sophomore record, Aftermath, mixed by veteran producer Ben Grosse (Marilyn Manson, Filter, Breaking Benjamin).
Release date to be announced. Their single “Void” is the first taste of the brand new album. Knotfest commenting on the track: “the first single offers a glimpse into the bold, stylishly dark sound that has made the duo of Larissa Vale and Kyle Hawken such a promising prospect.
In 2021, they released a cover of Rammstein’s “Sonne” to critical acclaim with Revolver
Magazine describing the track as “a masterclass in metal covers.”
Black Satellite completed back-to-back tours as direct support for John 5, Fozzy, and Nita Strauss in Fall/Winter 2021/2022, with additional appearances at Metal In The Mountains Fest and Blue Ridge Rock Fest.
