“well constructed, superbly produced, killer riffs meld perfectly with hard hitting lyrics and well crafted songs. A must for the lover of classy, loud, explosive alternative rock.” –A1M, UK
“the stage was crammed & jammed as the crowd jostled to catch a glimpse of one of Perth’s most talked about live acts currently on the scene.” – The Rockpit
Boasting a ferocious blend of progressive grunge, punk attitude and groove-laden hard rock, Electric State are a riff-driven juggernaut out of Perth, WA and are one of the most talked about live rock acts in their genre right now.
The time has come to Stand Up. Grab a megaphone, join the ruckus and start climbing on some bars. As Electric State unleashes onto the world their first track fresh from signing with the amazing XMusic family.
‘Stand Up’ is a hard-hitting track that talks about standing up for what’s right, not letting people walk over you. The world and politics will always pull you in different directions but if you don’t ‘Stand Up’ for something you believe in you’re just a passenger in life!
The already sold out single launch ‘Stand Up’ on the Ship Happens boat cruise will light up the swan river this Saturday, March 7, where crowd participation will be rewarded and encouraged as they try to not rock out the boat too much and leave anyone in the wake.
The Ship Happens cruise for the single ‘Stand Up’ will be crazy, loud, high voltage and crowd participation is required!

A two-time WAM Award-winning outfit, Electric State have been blowing minds and doors off Perth venues since their first show in 2019, packing rooms such as The Amplifier Bar, The Sewing Room, Lynott’s Lounge and Badlands. Their sound is a melting pot of heavy rock influences, drawing comparisons to Alice In Chains, Soundgarden, Rival Sons, Gyroscope and even Killswitch Engage.
Their debut album Green Machine received global airplay and earned solid praise internationally, helping the band secure tours through Japan and the UK in 2023, alongside international support slots with US act, Skillet. Media have described Electric State’s live shows as “blaring sirens, deafening chants, bar climbing and megaphones,” confirming their reputation as a must see live act.
Recent highlights include closing two stages at Nannup Music Festival 2024, where their explosive performances turned Tigerville into a high voltage singalong, complete with crowd members joining the band onstage armed with megaphones. PLus their recent XMusic debut, “What Do You Want” was mixed by Anton Hagop (Silverchair, Missy Higgins, Birds of Tokyo)
