Release Notes:
Upstate New York's pop-rock scene has struck again with State Champs. This time
hailing from the Albany area, 5 teenagers look to bring back the genre of
Pop-Punk to a mainly Hardcore/Metal scene. The young friends share similar
tastes in leisure activities ranging from no-name useless sports, to staying up
late playing video games while violently verbally assulting each other. The
positive, adventurous friendship built up between the 5 and their peers fuels
their in-your-face, energetic live set. When it comes to writing music, each
member brings a wide variety of ideas to the table to set the exact mood with
the sounds they create. When combining influences like New Found Glory and
Simple Plan, along with Every Time I Die and Trapped Under Ice, State Champs
hopes to bring "simple" pop-punk to a new level with a melodic, edgy, feel-good
kick added to it. All of this is, of course, will be attempted while making as
many new friends as possible, making complete fools out of themselves, not
having too much fun and overall staying completely positive.
