With
their album 'Death Of A Rockstar', Lancashire rockers Exit State showed
there
still is some venom left in the British rock scene. Now the band have
signed to Rocksector Records for the release of the latest album
‘Black Veins’ and frontman and guitarist Roy Bright and the rest of the
band, bring forth another slab of that same hit 'em hard, hit 'em fast, rock once more. As
the album kicks off with the rampaging ‘Enough Already’, it's clear the
band really mean business. I was lucky enough to catch the band
performing live at this years S.O.S.
Festival and they really showed everyone just why they deserved that second top billing of
the first day, as they lifted the roof off Radcliffe Civic. Their
set containing highlights from both albums that day. The
album keeps its ferocious pace and angst coming thick and fast with ‘In That Place',
the
thumping ‘Tonight Be Free’ and the angst filled ‘Check Out The
Crazy’. Although
the band can produce high octane venomous rock n' roll in tsunami waves,
with this album they are
also are able to show that they aren’t just one trick ponies, as they bring
something different to the table with the fantastically dark vibed
‘Circles’. As if that wasn't enough of a shock they continue
to really bring the pace down with a real change of
pace on the bluesy ‘Ten Year Later’. A real tour de force, as
is the the
modern rocker ‘Stay’. It's
pedal to the metal once more with the title track ‘Black Veins’, with
it’s massive heady bass lines. The big groove filled rock continues
its way with the excellent ‘Wasted’ and the equally impressive ‘Out In The
Rain’ |
