  • Bio

    .. .... I edited my profile with ..Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6..! .... Tony James wanting to create the group of his dreams. A vision of this supreme electro Rock n Roll using 2 drummers like a machine. A combination of, The Cramps, Suicide, New York Dolls and Bowie. The ultimate group for the Future, Sci Fi dub with movies and computers. Elvis in the yr 2050. A group that could live the life, that John Walters could only dream of. SIGUE SIGUE SPUTNIK are born. The Ultimate Kings of Electronic Rock n Roll. Sputnik sign to EMI, press reports that the band have signed for 4 million pounds, the 6 million dollar band Steve Austin should be proud. Front covers of NME, Time out, Melody maker, before a song has been recorded.40 sold out live shows in the UK. The monster is growing, Sputnik The bastard Sons of Ziggy. Watch out world Love Missile f1-11 the bands first single took the world by storm going to No1 in most of Europe, Sold out Live shows everywhere and a mass media frenzy with the Band on a least 100 Front Covers worldwide. Follow up Single 21st Century Boy Top 10 Throughout Europe. Flaunt it, The debut Album going Double Platinum, again a mass media frenzy due to the fact that band sold advertising space in between the tracks. Genius. European tour to promote the album with the ultimate show at the Royal Albert Hall. Sputnik play a live show and interact with live TV (yes you guessed it how did U2 come up with Idea for Zoo TV SSS do it 1986) Shows in USA ,taking the Sci- Fi rollercoaster to Madison Sq Gardens. 2nd album Dress for Excess. Singles Success, Dancerama, Rio Rocks. Sputnik tour Brazil playing in huge sold out venues. X and TJ start to work on new ideas. The Ultimate 12’” inch collection is released on sputniks own label Sputnikworld records. TJ launches www.sputnikworld.com and slowly but surely the Avatars are born, Fans from all over the world communicating via the web, and refueling the Sputnik lifeline. Sputnik start to play live shows again, sold out in London, sold out in Germany. The band release Piratespace and EMI decide to release 21st Century Boys The singles CD. Momentum is growing more shows, more new recordings. Ultra Real is released. The follow up to Flaunt it a release that every Sputnik fan had wanted. Degville leaves the band, and X takes over on Vocals it’s an all new good vibe Sputnik. TJ, X and Jenny Z. A New life again a new feeling of determination. Grooving with Mr Pervert released as a single and goes top 10 in the Germany. UK tour with X on vocals to promote Ultra Real. New material is written for the next album.

More shows then follow in Brazil, Russia, Portugal and Italy.. 6 albums, 8 singles, 100’s of live shows, 100 front covers . Sputnik continue to play live worldwide, and an albums worth of already written material will be recorded for the bands latest album. The SSS monster is still breathing. Sigue Sigue Sputnik. a futuristic rock and roll band. A group where television was just as relevant as a guitar solo .there's still no one else like it. Be Afraid be very Afraid. Keep the Faith. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..
