Let It Go - Frozen Movie Inspired T-Shirt for Kids & Adults | Disney Song Merchandise | Perfect for Birthdays, Halloween & Cosplay

There are some albums that take time for you to grow into, others that you hate from the first listen, and a select few that, from the very first play, you know are something special.This is one of those records.State Radio's debut is still in my rotation, some two years after I purchased it. State Radio fused Bob Marley style grooves with Rage Against the Machine intensity along with a splash of punk rock and folk to create a fresh, unique sound that was unlike pretty much anything I had heard. Year of the Crow was louder and sounded a good bit different; it wasn't necessarily worse, just an evolution. Let It Go continues this growth; shades of both of State Radio's albums are audible, but this time the band mixes in more styles, most noticeably on the Dropkick Murphys-esque "Knights of Bostonia," one of the best cuts on the record. Another great song is "Doctor Ron the Actor," which starts with a spoken intro (similar to "Mr. Larkin" off of Us Against the Crown), building up softly before breaking it a quick, ska/reggae type of groove. The best track on the album is the untitled bonus track (track 12), which is a remix (of sorts) of the song "Indian Moon." The quiet intensity and the great lyrics are a nice cap to the album.If you stumbled upon this album by accident, consider yourself lucky and click the buy button immediately. It's really a shame these guys aren't more popular, but as long as they keep making great music, I'll be happy., but play this for almost anyone and they will probably dig it. Oh, and one more thing -- this CD reminded me of why I continue to buy physical copies of stuff. The "liner notes" (of sorts) on the inside of the digipak are excellent, and to me, really sum up what State Radio is: a tight, no BS band that loves music and writes great songs.
