Reviews On State Of Error
First off, I've got to say that I've become a fan of this band just after listening to them for this review! Seriously State Of Error have defined themselves as a "pop-punk" band, but I'd prefer to put them in the genre "pure class" because that's simply what they are, and this song jus highlights that. With really catchy tunes throughout the song, and a searing hot guitar solo which is like the icing on the cake. State Of Error are a diamond in the rough and I strongly recommend you give it a listenReview By Lucie Hudson from Beep! Magazine on the track "The Revolution"By far the best this week. I haven't seen them with this singer but this track shows that they have moved forward. Really nice structure and the singer has a good voice, lovely drumming - what more is there to say. I must check them out live again. Well done guys.Review of "Paperweight" by Scubadog from the YMCReally Good song here - great vocals from the singer for a start, which really gives you something. Some good, well written lyrics aswell and then there's the great, great guitarwork. Not quite metal, but good, solid guitars here really make it quite an infectious song overall to listen to, great stuff!!Review of "The Ballad Of Halloween" From a 4 star Slice The Pie reviewerFast paced pop punk lads from Halifax collectivly known as State Of Error are quite busy at the moment. Over the next few months they will be flying through Leeds, Halifax & Bradford venues making audiences of all ages get on there feet and dance!The bands been around since 2006 and have a number of CD's/EP's! To say they've acheived all what they have now with the musicians still being young.. it is pure brilliance!Now through going over there myspace profile, I've picked out a few tracks that really sum up this band.. and here we go!Love LightThis is genuinly a really catchy song - not always common within local bands of today! The fun guitar riffs and fleeting drum beats & fills, it all goes together to create a heart pumping song. Theres a few things the band could of done to improve this, like making the bass parts a bit more funky! Plus the ammount of repitition in this song can lead to some insanity, but im guessing every punk songs like that - rite? But overall this track is a TUNE!!!!DeosThe introduction to this song is intense, guitars going insane being backeded up by the drummer aswell as some group vocals - (or what ever that noise was haha?) . Anyway when the main song kicks in you start understand that this is a well thought out track. Richard the vocalist, giving all he's got and his bands comes in with singing with him in the chorus's - and they pull it off well! Anyway we come to a nice simple guitar solo with yet more backing vocals (Im begining to like these :D) One thing that did slightly dissapoint me was the ending, the sudden stops and final ending seems to have been a quick getaway finnish to a good song - and that really ruins it in my opinion.So there we have it, State Of Error! Make sure you catch them at one of there upcoming shows, there quite insane!Review by 'LEEDS MUSIC SCENE'State of Error - Paperweight.By far the best this week. I haven't seen them with this singer but this track shows that they have moved forward. Really nice structure and the singer has a good voice, lovely drumming - what more is there to say. I must check them out live again. Well done guys.State Of Error - Paperweight.I think this is the best featured artist this week. A nice full sound, some nice harmonies, a well structured song. I like the use of two singers in this song. I imagine this band is a live band. Yeh guys keep at it, you've got a good song here and im sure they will get even better.State Of Error - Paperweight.The only really strong song was "Paperweight" by State of Error. This band has "presence" and it comes through clearly in their work. I would book them for a show based on listening to this song, whereas I wouldn't consider the other two. My advice to Chalk Aeroplane and Silverlode is simple; work harder and don't release anything for public approval until it's ready. Neither of these songs were, unfortunately.Reviewed by 'YORKSHIRE MUSIC COLLECTIVE' -

Lyrics
Deos
Alarm clocks in our rooms
Stirring in the gloom
Wake me from my sleepy tomb
Sunlight creeping in
Warm glow on our skin
The summer days are wearing thin
When the day's are getting longer
Setting Goals for us to conquer
Times like these should last forever
Memories we spend together
But summer never lasts
And time moves on too fast
Soon it's just the pastMake our way outside
Roadtrip on our minds
Or anything to pass the time
Sit out in the street
Baking in the heat
The summer day's are such a treat
When the day's are getting longer
Setting Goals for us to conquer
Times like these should last forever
Memories we spend together
But summer never lasts
And time moves on too fast
Soon it's just the pastAfterburner
Life's an illusion we accept for free
It's built on false hope and anxiety
The foolish are the ones who dare to dream
But I wont let this shit hole get to me
Woah-oh-oh-oh x2We stick together throughout thick and thin
If we keep fighting then we'll surely win
But heaven's gates will never let you in
'Cos the're not sure of everywhere you've beenWoah-oh-oh-oh x2
Woah-oh-oh-oh x4
The Revolution
You think you're better than me?
Well i've got something to say!
I'm not your bitch to push around
I think you're losing control
You're falling faster
There's a fire in my heart
It's burning
It's tearing you appart
I see them laughing behind our back
I hear them plotting when to attack
I feel them lurking in the 'it crowd'
I will not follow, for that I am proudYou think that you're number one
I tell you your time is done
Your dreams will crash down to the ground
I think you're so immature
But no-one's listening
There's a fire in my heart
It's burning
It's tearing you appart
I see them laughing behind our back
I hear them plotting when to attack
I feel them lurking in the 'it crowd'
I will not follow, for that I am proud'YOU TRY SO HARD BUT YOU WILL FAIL!'
There's a fire in my heart
It's burning
It's tearing you appart
I see them laughing behind our back
I hear them plotting when to attack
I feel them lurking in the 'it crowd'
I will not follow, for that I am proudMy ear burning on the right side
Eyes on the inside, nowhere to hide
All of the bitching like we're not there
One thing they missed out 'as if we all care?'I see them laughing behind our back
I hear them plotting when to attackHow much is enough?
How much is enough?
When the world is crying
How much is too much?
Where do we draw the line?
When there's people dying
Where do we draw the line?
Cos all we see
Is poverty
What happened to the smiley faces
Tell me what you're seeing every day
The world is here and it is ours to save
Life is a challenege driving us insane
But all we have to do is act humane
Ooh-woah-ohHow many people will fall?
Just to buy your comfort
How many people will fall?
Who do you think will pay?
So that you don't get hurt
Who do you think will pay?
Cos all we see
Is poverty
What happened to the smiley faces
Tell me what you're seeing every day
The world is here and it is ours to save
Life is a challenege driving us insane
But all we have to do is act humane
Ooh-woah-ohHow much is enough?
When the world is crying
How much is too much?Antiseen
Another day
Another life
Gather like sheep
Towards the knife
You're not a reflection
Of what you've said and done
You try so hard
But fall so far
Why can't you be
Just what you are
Another grain of sand
When will you understand?
No one was born to fake it
I don't think i can take this
You're wearing out your life
By living someones lie
Why would you want to be this?
Created by surrealists
You think that they're your friends
But they want you to die
Impressing others
Just like you
You live a lie
And ignore truth
No one can set you free
To flee this fallacy
You all just look
And act the same
But you're all victims
Of a game
A corporate money scam
Well that's not what i am
No one was born to fake it
I don't think i can take this
You're wearing out your life
By living someones lie
Why would you want to be this
Created by surrealists
You think that they're your friends
But they want you to dieNo one was born to fake it
I don't think i can take this
You're wearing out your life
By living someones lie
Why would you want to be this
Created by surrealists
You think that they're your friends
But they want you to die
Paperweight
(W)After class I wait for you
You don't come I think its cruel
So I walk on to your home
I see you there, you're not alone
Come inside my little head
I can't forget the words you said
I know you want to complicate
But you're causing my heart to hate
I'm scared
I'm fucking frightened of you
Petrified
Of looking like a stupid foolI'd like to say I've had enough
But I haven't got the guts
So I'll go along with you
(W)Even though you're being untrueCome inside my little head
I can't forget the words you said
I know you want to complicate
But you're causing my heart to hate
I'm scared
I'm fucking frightened of you
Petrified
Of looking like a stupid foolCome inside my little head
I can't forget the words you said
I know you want to complicate
But you're causing my heart to hate
I'm scared
I'm fucking frightened of you
Petrified
Of looking like a stupid fool
Woah-oh-oh
Come inside my little head
I can't forget the words you said
I know you want to complicate
But you're causing my heart to hate
I'm scared
I'm fucking frightened of you
Petrified
Of looking like a stupid fool
Looking like a stupid fool
Looking like a stupid foolLove Light
Every time I look in your eyes
I can feel the love from inside
With the way I'm feeling tonight
I would say that you're my love light
I would say that you're my love light
Every time I look in your eyes
I can feel the love from inside
With the way I'm feeling tonight
I would say that you're my love light
Woo-oh-oh
Woo-oh-oh
I would say that you're my love light
Guide me through and let me know
That it's true love to me you show
Oh no
Pick me up and spin me round
You lead the way don't make a sound
When I wake up in the morning
I am glad a new day's dawning
Every beast and bird is calling
I would say that you're my love light
Woo-oh-oh
Woo-oh-oh
I would say that you're my love light

You lead the way don't make a soundMirror Theory
It's the space inbetween
The mirrors and your mind
That really intrests me tonight
Look back on old old songs
From girlfriends of the past
And wonder
Was it really love or just a laugh
Wake up wake up to a new day
Say goodbye goodbye to this heartache
Wake up wake up to a new day
Say goodbye goodbye to this heartache
Wake up wake up to a new day
Say goodbye goodbye to this heartache
Wake up wake up to a new day
Say goodbye goodbye to this heartacheI can't be with you all the time
To help you make the most of every single day
But i know if you really try
You can enjoy yourself in every single way
Chances are infinate
So make the most of your time here
And don't go living in fear
Depression isn't real
Just ignorance of happy feelings
That you really want to feel
Wake up wake up to a new day
Say goodbye goodbye to this heartache
Wake up wake up to a new day
Say goodbye goodbye to this heartache
Wake up wake up to a new day
Say goodbye goodbye to this heartache
Wake up wake up to a new day
Say goodbye goodbye to this heartache
I can't be with you all the time
To help you make the most of every single day
But i know if you really try
You can enjoy yourself in every single wayWake up wake up to a new day
Say goodbye goodbye to this heartache
Wake up wake up to a new day
Say goodbye goodbye to this heartache
Wake up wake up to a new day
Say goodbye goodbye to this heartache
Wake up wake up to a new day
Say goodbye goodbye to this heartacheFrontline
Ducking hiding running fast
How long is this war going to last
Shooting at the enemy
Hurts less than how you miss me
Still the air-raids cease to fail
Coming down like apocalyptic hail
And even in the middle of the night
The sullen armies carry on the fight
Whenever we're not together
Whenever time lasts forever
I fall away (fall away)
Fall away (fall)
Whenever we're not together
Whenever time lasts forever
I fall away (fall away)
Fall
Until I see your face again
Is this democracy
Putting you're life on the line for free
To settle debts for the government
It's just tax payers money getting spent
At home you're doing well
Waiting for me to get out of this hell
I hope it's not too long till I get back
I hate spending life under attackWhenever we're not together
Whenever time lasts forever
I fall away (fall away)
Fall away (fall)
Whenever we're not together
Whenever time lasts forever
I fall away (fall away)
Fall
Until I see your face againWhenever we're not together
Whenever time lasts forever
I fall away (fall away)
Fall away (fall)
Whenever we're not together
Whenever time lasts forever
I fall away (fall away)
Fall
Until I see your face again
