"I have a REALLY vivid imagination when it comes to the art of writing music, and I like to have some good laughs while doing it…" – Leifur Nielsen
Brewed on composer/chief architect - Leifur Nielsens, high ambitions and a life-long worship of weird old movie-soundtracks, rock, metal and classical music, this is the outcome, getting his ideas of music as it should be, down on the tracks.
In 2009 he began the writing process, and to sought out the right line-up of musicians for the first release under the banner of The World State.
This resulted in the highly acclaimed debut Ep "FLIER", released by the band itself in June 2013. The work and progress for their first full-length album “Traced through Dust and Time” is now well on the way
HOW TO EXPLAIN THE WORLD STATE WITH JUST A FEW PHRASES?
Well… if you can picture the immaculate voice of Monika Pedersen standing as a lighthouse to guide you through the dynamic and truly melancholic soundscapes that without a care in the world skips from the heaviest rock´n´roll drumbeats to the fastest death-metal blastbeats, only for the next part to be led by an organ/piano or the most beautiful chorus and string-sections that would make even Ennio Morricone weep, then you might have an idea!
Faith, Hope and The End of The World...
