about

The Higher State return with their long-awaited third album, Freakout at the Gallery! While still employing their bedrock signature sound of fuzzy 60's-style garage psychedelia meshed with jangly folk-punk, the group expands their musical horizons through a broader mix of instrumentation. On these 12 new songs, sitar, piano, and even a lush string arrangement add a lot of color to this affair. Mix all of these vibrations with quite possibly some of their most infectious vocal harmonies and spot-on, thought-provocative lyrics to date, and you will bear witness to the Freakout at the Gallery. Quite possibly, becoming an active participant as well, as the sounds excite your ears, move your feet, and paint the colors of your mind!

“The Higher State are far more than a pudding bowl re-creation. They're a valid voice for the New Bohemia; time bandits who have shared cokes n' smokes with Gene Clark and Roky! And let's cut the flowery superlatives (words mean little when you are talking about music) and let me just say that the Higher State are the only current U.S.-1960s-styled garage band that you need to hear”. - Jon “Mojo” Mills, Shindig! Magazine.

“Featuring ex-members of two great but now-deceased combos, the Mystreated and the Embrooks, the Higher State channel American garage and psych circa 1966-68, and do it exceptionally well.” - Mike Stax, Ugly Things Magazine.

....National or Portrait? Neither.

The one with the black and white Op-Art floor!

With nothing more dangerous to the free-thinking human spirit than the threat of a secure future, all you gotta do is know where your head is at.

Everything is part of everything else,

Or so it seems....

Recorded at Sandgate Sounds Studios

A "State" Production

All songs written by Marty Ratcliffe except for You Had It Coming and Turn Into Fall, which were written by Mole Lambert.

The Higher State on this recording: Marty Ratcliffe, Mole Lambert, Daniel Shaw, and Ben Jones
