View The Article

The Attika State are back, and have a nice update for everyone (including a new song "The Horton Shuffle" up on their MySpace page now:

"Hey everybody,

We know its been an awful long wait for anything to happen but things are finally starting to spring into action in camp Attika.

There have been some exciting goings on over the last however long its been so best to get started!

New Music!

In the blistery winter months of last year we went up to North wales to record an album with the mighty Dave Eringa. It was a lot of fun and we couldn’t be prouder of how things turned out.

The album is entitled "Measures" and is set to see the light of day in Sept/October of this year. We are really excited for you to all hear it! There will be a single preceding the album release entitled "Celebration?" out on the 24th July.

BSM ’10 Compilation

Those lovely fellows at the Big Scary Monsters Recording Company have kindly invited us to release a brand new song as the 22nd addition to their ’10 collection. The ’10 collection is a subscription based compilation where you, the listener hands over 1700 of your hard earned pennies and in return you get access to 52 excellent tracks (1 a week) from the cream of the next wave of bands ready to blow your face off, along with a couple of gems from the back catalogue. We are honoured to be a part of this collection, and we hope you will be too.

As a little treat we have put the song "The Horton Shuffle" from said compilation up on the myspace player for y’all to listen to so please go and lend your ears!.
