Have you ever asked yourself what life would be like if you were an armless… Read Full Bio ↴Have you ever asked yourself what life would be like if you were an armless skater? Do you consider yourself a weekend warrior?
Then State of Mine's fast and melodic skatepunk might be a perfect fit for you. Mostly influenced by the nineties Swedish skatepunk sound, and more established bands as Belvedere, Lagwagon and Man(d)y M(o)ore, State of Mine effectuated more than 75 shows on local and not-so-local stages in Belgium and abroad since November 2007. These shows included support slots for bands as SNFU (Can), Smoke or Fire (USA), Rentokill (Au), Mute (Can), High Five Drive (Can), Pendleton (UK), The Living Daylights (UK), Jet Market (It) and other massively talented, yet less known bands.
A first release followed after nearly a year of constant rehearsing and performing. The DIY "Geargrinder" EP sold out within the first months after it's release in October 2008. After a major change in the SoM line up (one guitar less, a replacement behind the drums and a new lead vocal), plans were made for a split CD with The Octopussy's, to be released under Kickass Records (the band’s own D.I.Y. record label) by the end of April 2009.
After a rushy 2009 filled with playing shows and promoting the split CD in Belgium, the band scheduled to start writing their debut full album “Accelerate!” around the end of the year. It quickly got clear that the only feasible option was to do the whole thing in a D.I.Y. fashion.
Slowly, but steadily, the recording sessions for “Accelerate!” started off in April 2010.
And now, at the start of 2011, the band is extremely proud to be able to present the finished album.
Next to that the need for a second guitar player became quite acute going through the recording process.
Victor Navarro (ex-Struggling for reason) happily filled the vacant spot.
As a fivepiece, State of Mine guarantees an energetic live show, spiced up with old and new skatepunk covers.

White socks prevail!

STATE OF MINE
God's Country
State Of Mine Lyrics
Right outside of this one church town
There's a gold dirt road to a whole lotta nothin'
Got a deed to the land, but it ain't my ground
This is God's country
We pray for rain, and thank Him when it's falling
'Cause it brings a grain and a little bit of money
We put it back in the plate
I guess that's why they call it God's country
I saw the light in the sunrise
Sittin' back in a 40 on the muddy riverside
Gettin' baptized in holy water and 'shine
With the dogs runnin'
Saved by the sound of the been found
Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound
The Devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around
This is God's country
We turn the dirt and work until the week's done
We take a break and break bread on Sunday
Then do it all again
'Cause we're proud to be from God's country (yeah)
I saw the light in the sunrise
Sittin' back in a 40 on the muddy riverside
Gettin' baptized in holy water and 'shine
With the dogs runnin'
Saved by the sound of the been found
Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound
The Devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around
This is God's country
(This is God's country)
I don't care what my headstone reads
Or what kind of pinewood box I end up in
When it's my time, lay me six feet deep
In God's country (yeah)
I saw the light in the sunrise
Sittin' back in a 40 on the muddy riverside
Gettin' baptized in holy water and 'shine
With the dogs runnin' (dogs runnin')
Saved by the sound of the been found
Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound
The Devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around
This is God's country (God's country)
Yeah, I saw the light in the sunrise
Sittin' back in a 40 on the muddy riverside
Gettin' baptized in holy water and 'shine
With the dogs runnin' (dogs runnin')
Saved by the sound of the been found
Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound
The Devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around
This is God's country (God's country)

It's official: country and metal go VERY WELL together
@joelsaylor4777
I 100% agree 🤘
@joelsaylor4777
I completely agree 🤘
@banecker1
Sometimes, you just crank it up to ten and let music in. Put it on repeat and refill you soul, because damn boys. Nailed it.
@josephmiller3276
To all of our farmers, truck drivers, nurses, doctors, oil workers, construction & tradesmen and women... all the folks who work in the shadows that make our world turn and run ... we see you. Keep fighting the good fight. This world would fail with out you. We need you. Thank you for the sacrifices you continue to make. God bless.
@anangrycustomer2913
The metal sound definitely does this song justice. Would love to hear Blake Shelton sing this with y'all with the metal sound
