REVIEW
“White Rock Experience”. Three simple words. Each one separately, as well as all together describe our artistic identity. White colour is always present in our scenic creation. Music that we play is most surely “rock”. Experience is the key-word defining our deep need of almost tangible contact between music and listener.
“White Rock Experience” is a manifesto of some sorts, a protest against depressing departure from ideals of music, that can be beautiful and moving. It’s a yearning for true, unrestricted rocking out. It’s also faith and hope, that we can lay a small brick in building the reincarnation of real global passion to music. Fifty minutes of music, that we ambitiously pigeon-holed as “white rock”.
ABOUT
State Urge is a band hailing from Gdynia, consisting of four musicians whose shared passion for creating unique music that is hard to classify. They’re performing white rock – an original genre. On one side it has roots deep in a classic rock sound, on the other hand it’s unpretensional, fresh and most importantly emotionally honest.
In 2011 they self-released their demo – “Underground Heart” EP. Enthusiastic opinions about the release allowed the band to be aired on Polish Radio Channel 3 thanks to kindness and by personal choice of redactor Piotr Kaczkowski. Interesting fact is, that the album consisted of almost only instrumental improvisations, with vocals and additional effects added later on.
In 2012 the band released another EP, “What Comes Next?“. The main point of this release was to find out the answer to the question stated in it’s title. What comes next? The group was pleasantly surprised with positive reviews, they served as motivation and driving force to dedicating even more work to creating music. During that time the band succesfully attended many festivals and competitions (winning the FAMA festival in Tricity region and getting honours in several regional competitions) and were aired on popular Polish radio stations (Radio Gdansk, Radio PiK, Radio Alfa, Radio MORS, Radio SAR, Radio MEGATON and others). They also shared the stage during their concerts with known bands such as Cochise, Dianoya, Votum and others.
The turn of the year 2012 emerged as the sought after answer. In co-operation with Lynx Music, a publisher from Krakow, the group began their work on the long awaited debut album. They recorded new material, but decided also to incorporate in the album some of the older work. The urge to create something unique, a new quality on the music market led them to conceiving the concept of “White Rock Experience”.
It’s worthy of note, that the band pays special attention to their concerts. Fields of interest connected to stage techniques, visual projections and theatre resulted in building an interesting show, which engulfs the viewer into an oneiric land of sound, views and lights.
