Barcelona hard pysch rockers Saturna are back, and that’s always good news. »The Reset« is the title of their fifth studio album and it’s coming out on December 1, with a first single »Your Whimsical Selfishness« and album pre-order out today.

Let’s be honest: when you receive a private listen to a yet-to-be-released album and you cannot stop listening to it over and over again, you know you’re looking at something very special. Well, something similar has been the feedback received to the email sent by Spinda Records a couple of weeks ago with Saturna’s new studio album. With the years, the band from Barcelona has earned a privileged situation in the Spanish hard and heavy rock scene (together with bands such as Cachemira, Bourbon, Electric Alley or Zålomon Grass) thanks to unbelievable albums and epic live shows.

»The Reset« is their new album and it will be out on December 1 via Spinda Records, in collaboration with Discos Macarras, although the advance single »Your Whimsical Selfishness« is available as from today, at the same time that pre-orders for the album in its physical and digital formats are up and running already) – and keep an eye on the digital edition as it includes live bonus tracks of »A National Acrobat« by Black Sabbath, »Come Together« by The Beatles, »Five To One« by The Doors and »Who knows« by Jimi Hendrix.

It is evident that the band formed in Barcelona back in 2010 had enought time to grow as musicians and to write these new songs – it is with no doubt their best album to date, and with a significant different in comparison to previous ones. Everything sounds more compact and more real.

“[…] We are very happy with the result achieved for this new album. In it you’ll find a mixof 70s hard rock and psychedelia, but also acoustic moments and killer riffs. We really think that this fifth album is our more eclectic one, and we cannot wait for you to give a go […]”

Saturna headed to Analog Drive-in Studios with around 25 demos writen since the release of »Atlantis« back in in 2019, and from there they came out with the 10 songs that were later on mixed by their usual collaborator Dani Pernas, mastered in Doctor Master, and which finally made up »The Reset«, an album whose artwork has been created by Jondix (a regular collaborator of Tool). And all this was happening at the same time that James Vieco released his studio album »Nimaya« in 2020, and his »Unplugged at RockSound« a few months later in 2021; the band participated with the single »Volver a empezar« (their first and only song in Spanish so far) in »Grados. Minutes. Segundos.« boxset by Spinda Records, in addition to publishing a split album with Electric Monolith for Ripple Music US label; and without forgetting Rod’s first solo album and his album with James Vieco and Isaiah Mitchell (Earthless) – both yet to be released.

»The Reset« is coming out on December 1 on digital, compact disc and in a double edition on vinyl, limited to 100 copies in black color and 200 copies in clear green color. Pre-order is available now through Spinda Records website and Bandcamp. Pre-order: spindarecords.com/product/saturna-the-reset
