Artist Biography For De Staat

De Staat Is A Dutch Alternative Rock Band From Nijmegen The Netherlands Formed In 2006. The Band Fronted By Songwriter Singer Guitarist And Producer Torre Florim Released Four Albums Waiting For Evolution 2009 Machinery 2011 I_Con 2013 And O 2016 . De Staat Have Been Described By SonicAbuse As "genre-Hopping Gremlins Of The First Order Who Take In The Eclectic Grand Slamming Funk Of Beck The Dance Grooves Of Kelis’ Milkshake The Horny Soul Of QOTSA ... And The Lost Gothic Romanticism Of Nick Cave Often Within The Same Song." The Band's Sound Gradually Evolved From Rather Heavy Riff-Based 'desert Rock' In The Vein Of Queens Of The Stone Age And Kyuss To A More Eclectic 'heavy Disco' Sound With Funky Synthesizers And Bouncing Melodies. Typical For This Shift In Sound Is 2014's Vinticious Versions EP On Which - If You Wish - The 'new De Staat' Interprets Songs Of The 'old De Staat'. November 2021 Saw The First Release Of A Possible Series Of EP's Based Around The Three Colors Red Yellow And Blue. Each Color Represents The Main Vibe Of A Track. Red Stands For Dark And Hard Yellow Stands For Light-Footed And Blue Stands For Melancholic. De Staat Frontman Torre Florim Explained That Future Song Releases Would Fit These Vibes And Possibly Become A Series Of EP's Instead Of An Album. Line-Up Torre Florim - Vocals Guitar
