Vinticious Versions

Description

Following the release of their third album I_Con which reached #2 in their homeland last year the Dutch alternative rock quintet De Staat return with their Vinticious Versions EP out on 24 November on Vinyl via Cool Green Recordings/Mascot Label Group.

Where I_CON combined instruments in such a way that you dont immediately recognize which instrument youre hearing, frontman Torre Florim described it as very much guitar driven but weirder, Vinictious Versions takes you on another journey altogether. Made up of re-worked versions of their own songs off of their previous three albums I_Con (2013), Machinery (2011) and Wait for Evolution (2009) the EP takes you on a trip down an alternative pathway with familiar surroundingssomething that is a little more dark and delicious according to Florim. The De Staat ethos is every record has to be different but recognisable as them The 4th album is another step for us and is going to be the best stuff yet. For us if we dont try to evolve were going to bleed dry eventually. Album available as CD Special Edition (deluxe digipack packaging) and LP in limited numbers De Staat won various awards including a 3FM award for Best Alternative Act and the prestigious Edision Award in Holland 8 tracks of older albums revisited and totally new and interesting arrangements.
