The late '90s and early 2000s were a booming era for stadium alt-rock bands a la Muse, the Killers and Coldplay. State to State, a rock & roll quartet from L.A., brings a similar guitar-driven, moody intensity to their music. They mix atmospheric arrangements with heavy, driving beats, and build their songs up from near gentle splashes of sound to epic, orchestral rock riffage. Singer Shea Stratton has the convulsive high-timber of Thom Yorke, which bounces of the lush guitar work magnificently. (Amulya Datla)
