The Aliens, EMI ~ Band Website Redesign

satiworks was commissioned to come up with design and concept for the new website of Scottish band, the Aliens.

The Aliens, who include former Beta Band members Robin Jones and John Maclean and 'Lone Pigeon' Gordon Anderson, wanted a no-fuss, simple, user-friendly and content-driven site rather than the standard flash-bonanza band-sites currently out there.

Working together with EMI programmers, satiworks came up with a simple and sleek design and content which would reflect the bands character as opposed to the usual PR blurb.
 The Top European Web Activities are:
  • web searches
  • instant messaging
  • music downloads
  • listening to the radio

Here's what happy Alien, John Maclean, had to say: "At last we have a site which suits us – no flash, user friendly and easy to read and up-date. Great stuff! The feedback has been fantastic and it has been refreshing to work with designers who listen and understands the band’s needs and ‘look’."

In the process, we also became great fans of the band and wish them all the best with the new album 'Astronomy for Dogs' out 19th March 2007 - check them out!
