Brand: FREESTATE

Located in: music4me, Rock, Rock

With integrity and musical abilities akin to The Butterfly Effect and Karnivool and riffs that would make any Wolfmother proud, Melbourne’s Freestate bring a presence which bridges the gap and pushes the boundaries of rock music genres. Feestate’s debut album “Surrender” is as solid a debut as you are likely to see from an Australian act. With strength in tracks like “Twice Alive”, hooks galore in tracks like “Man Who Couldn't Lie” and experimental sounds in “Necessary” and “Phoenix”, Freestate show themselves to be a band assured of both where they are and where they are headed.

Comments about FREESTATE SURRENDER:

I find it hard to really get into local bands because I find it all ends up sounding the same, but this album is yet to leave my car! The only thing better than this album is hearing them live. Highly recommend you buy a copy of Surrender, especially if you're a fan of Butterfly Effect, Karnivool, Breaking Benjamin, etc

Comments about FREESTATE SURRENDER:

Freestate came to Ballarat 2/8/07 and they have really restored my faith in heavy rock. The lyrics are understandable and i luv the guitar riffs! We had never heard of them before and instantly loved what we heard. Thanks for the music guys. We are definately fans. I love Tool and I just want you to know that I think you have a bit of a Tool flava in your tunes. That is a compliment.
Luv Christine and Carrie

Comments about FREESTATE SURRENDER:

After first experiencing Freestate,from the Big Waves and Wipe-outs promo,Phoenix and Mystery man were awesome teasers.......I have eagerly awaited the arrival of their first collation of tracks and with much relief, the CD hasn't let me down. I found the Surrender CD top shelf stuff and each track from number 1, builds to better and better songs !! Wicked. I eagerly await the live gig in Brisbane. Well done.

Awesome Album !!!

Comments about FREESTATE SURRENDER:

This album is awesome as the headline implies. They are a great rock band, and more people should be listening to this great band. This album was a pleasant suprise. I'll be listening to this album over and over, for some time to come...well until their second album comes out.

Highly recommended.

Love this band!
