about

The Higher State return with their fifth full-length album! In a similar vein to their recent (Consider It) A Debt Repaid single, Volume 27 presents twelve new songs meshing 60's-style garage with jangly folk-punk that timelessly reflect upon the ho-hum world we all face without sounding cliched and trivial. Forever questioning why, so continues the quest for The Higher State!

“On Volume 27, they deliver what may be their strongest, most cohesive statement to date: fuzz, Farfisa, snot, snarl, reverb and harmony combine on twelve incisive broadsides against insincerity and mediocrity. The album plays like a treasured compilation of mysterious 60's obscuritites, all killer, no filler” - Mike Stax, Ugly Things Magazine

“These guys can do no wrong as far as I'm concerned.” - Nathan Ford, The Active Listener
