History
SITD was founded by Jacek and Lau in the Ruhr Area of Germany. In the next three years they self produced and released their first two albums, mourning country (1996) and Atomic (1999). In 1999, Lau left the band to be replaced by Thomas Lesczenski. In 2001, Andrè Sorge joined the band and they toured with VNV Nation and XPQ-21 on the Futureperfect tour. In 2001, SITD also released their largest hit single to-date, Snuff Machinery, which made liberal use of sampled dialogue from the German dub of the film 8mm, a 1999 US thriller dealing with snuff films. Sorge left the band by the end of the year.

Area 51
by: Sitdon highway 375
mysterious activities
on all frequencies
extraterrestrial
higher energy
deviate from the human science
let's read between the lines
take care the truth is out there
under the rising sun
in area 51
beware of human blunder
time of thunder has begun
in area 51
e.s.p. in the sky
why s.e.t.i.?
substantiate the static fact
watch the secrets of the black
vorsprung durch die technologie
determinate the evidence
check out the consequences
take care the truth is out there
under the rising sun
in area 51
beware of human blunder
time of thunder has begun
in area 51
