STATES – PARADIGM (SILVER VINYL)

After an impressive debut release, indie supergroup States return with their beautiful and lush second installment – Paradigm. Delving into more experimental territory, Paradigm is a lesson in dynamics — rich atmospherics are grounded by propulsive rhythms, delicate layers are juxtaposed by driving guitars, and heady lyrics are masterfully delivered by an arresting voice. With foundational roots in such beloved bands (Copeland, Lydia), expectations have always been high for States. Paradigm not only secures the bands independence as a stand alone force, it also serves as a statement of what’s to come. Second full-length album from members of Copeland and Lydia. Copeland – Lifetime Sales of over 280,000 albums in the US, Lydia – Lifetime Sales of over 40,000 albums in the US. Limited to 500 on Silver vinyl.
