SixNationState - Where Are You Now?

Southampton based SixNationState make a tremendous return to form with their achingly dancey new single 'Where Are You Now?'. It's actually a hard task putting the song into words. It's a little like The Zutons on Pro-Plus, with a little of The Mighty Mighty Bosstones thrown in for good measure.

It's got more charm than a James Bond impersonator convention and more energy than a kid who just ate five bags of Skittles. Musically speaking, the up-strummed guitars, frenetic drums and passionate vocal stylings lend the song an infectious, toe-tappingly upbeat feeling - a facet rarely seen in many of today's production-line mainstream rock acts. The b-sides perfectly complement the a-side by showcasing the tremendous range of the band's versatility.

Do yourself a favour - pick this one up and welcome the summer in with style.
