East Lancashire UK rock band Exit State (who have been likened to such greats as Foo Fighters, Nickelback & Therapy) demonstrate a sound that combines the melodic qualities of indie with the innovation of rock and the power of metal.

Such a high-octane rock cocktail has seen the band described as: “Satisfyingly heavy, unexpectedly catchy, unashamedly experimental and curiously engaging. Impressive” - Rocksound Magazine

"All 9 songs here are of the highest quality, they're full of meaty riffs yet always seem to be melodically driven and the album is very highly recommended." 10/10 – Glitzine

"The album is a convincing combination of melodic new rock and charging post punk – but there is still that 90’s alternative-Britrock sensibility that rings true. Between the stadium bound material, they could find themselves exploring the same territories as FFAF and Lost Prophets and all the success that comes with it, could be theirs" – Manchester Music

"Am I impressed, very much so actually. When you throw hard edge meaty riffs into a blender with dirty rock n roll megalomania, and come out with Exit State, well, I'm not about to complain." – Komodo Rock

“The bottom line is a good, handmade sound, rockin’ songs, and a young band which is heading for a great future – absolutely up-and-coming - Side-Line Music Magazine

“Death of a Rockstar offers nuances of metal, indie, grunge and rock that would fit easily on let’s say Kerrang Radio’s playlist - Midlands Rocks

Following signing to King Prawn Records in 2009 the band launched onto the world music stage with a breathtaking debut EP including the huge live favourite ‘Bad Days’ as their debut single.

Working tirelessly in 2009 they also took their music out of the UK and into the arms of other cultures by playing an incredibly successful tour of Finland including a highlight show in front of 1600 screaming Scandinavian fans at the stylish Fontana Club in Vaasa during March 09.

They didn’t stop there either as UK show included supporting ex-Iron Maiden frontman Blaze Bayley and NWOBHM stalwart's Witchfynde. Brand new dedicated fans flooded in proving Exit State were one of the hottest bands of 2009.

2010 dates are hotting up including a support slot on the Dave Evans tour (co-founder/original singer of AC/DC) and a slot on the much coveted SOS Festival.

And now the band has their debut album "Death Of A Rockstar" (release date 31st May 2010) & in the same month join Rocksector Records for management of their career. This is one breakthrough album that is set to catapult the band into success. Come along for the ride!
