BIOGRAPHY:



State of the Union emerges in 2001 in the alternative/electronic/industrial scene. Their unique blend of industrial dance and more accesible forms of EBM with contemporary electronic styles and very deep, thoughtful,inspiring lyrics ranging from hard-hitting electronic beats to haunting ballads and symphonic orchestrations.

State of the Union has earned incredible acclaim for their energetic live performances and gained a fanatical worldwide following.


State of the Union is:

» Johann Sebastian: Vocals, Lyrics and Programming
» Jimmy Nimra: Drums
» Edwyn Blade: Keys



State of the Union's name itself is an expression of Johann's outlooks, enveloping political overtones at the same time still resembling the rage and emotion that he was initially trying to portray in his music. They felt it was only fitting to follow their own aspirations in pursue of their own musical scope.

Their debut Album Black City Lights inspired by the loyalist to the EBM and Darkwave scene, fuses together expressions and elements of philosophy, politics, love and symbolism through the medium of hard hitting and addictive dance music.

Halloween
Seems that in this day my reality become in true
Ghosts,zombies,vampires become reality too.
It's the day of darkness and the day of satisafction
To hear some persons screaming and scared of all this actions.
Halloween is near,it's always in our souls
Even if we hide it always from some  persons.
If every day of your life is a Halloween
Than it's your day now,with a big ruine.
The pumpkins and sweets,all it can be fun
But look deep in this holiday and you'll see that there's no sun.
All our dead friends will come to our houses
And they will scream louder:"come with us!"
Maybe now it's cool,maybe now it's fine
But someday i'll have a zombie that will be mine.
I will be very bloody and scary
And i wouldn't wait for a fairy.
Halloween is good,it's for the soul
For the dark person that is fall.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey State of the Union,

Its me Michael again.

I can't wait to listen to "Dancing in the Dark."
I have been waiting forever to finally listen to the full-length. You should post it up so it can be heard, or at least put another sample up :]
