City-State

DC's City-State is releasing a new album this month. On May 10, they will have a release party for Monument at Black Cat. Philly's A Study In Her contributed a remix to the CD and will be opening the show.

So how is the new material? Well, they took the ideas that they had on their debut EP and expanded on them. There is a lot of layering and they even threw in a string section. They still haven't met their full potential, but they're getting closer. In the end, this is a solid release from a promising band.

We wouldn't be IA, if we didn't have a contest. We will be giving away a grand prize that includes two tickets to the release party and a CD. Two runner ups will receive copies of the CD. To win, all you have to do is send an e-mail with your first name and location. Good luck and enjoy a couple of tracks from the CD. If you like what you hear, pre-order here.
