Blessed State's latest, the SLIPSTREAM EP, is a 4-song effort recorded this past May by Kevin Gebo at Disappearing Mountain in Easthampton MA. The band enjoyed the recording process so much that Gebo has since joined the band as their second guitar player!
These four songs continue the band's melodic punk trajectory, incorporating more harmonies and hooks wherever possible. The Exploding In Sound blog referred to it as "thoughtful and efficient, comfortable with the pathways that lead into and around the heart".

lyrics
Never thought that I would have the chance to see all this come through
It’s so inviting, deciding what we know by heart
Don’t fall by the wayside
And still here we are making the most of everything that we can
Don’t go changing your mind this time
Cause I need it
Thank you for all that you’ve done
God damn me, I just can’t sit still
And there are those days, can’t help but feel like I’m on some borrowed time
Avoid telling you this song would be the very last I wrote
They call it competition, I can’t say they’re wrong
But it’s never simple, we knew that all along
And there’s nothing better, to share this with you
It’s awe-inspiring, in all that you do
