Mates of State - My Solo Project | Polyvinyl Record Co.

My Solo Project

Release Date: April 15, 2003

My Solo Project is Mates of State's critically acclaimed debut album.

Originally released in 2000 on Omnibus, the record was sold primarily by the band on tour. As the Mates of States fan base began to build quickly, the record gained cult-like status as the band literally sold thousands of copies at shows.

In 2003, Polyvinyl re-released the then hard-to-find album with bonus, revamped artwork.

Reviews

A tremendous debut full-length... Matesof State have built a freshness all their own, rejuvenating indie pop withunbelievable vigor.

- All Music Guide
Impressive and refreshing. I was not getting the typical: bass, drums,guitar sound that we are so accustomed to. This is an ingenious duo, one that Ihave never come across.

- Stylus
Made me grin from ear to ear.

- TinyMixTapes
Consistently high in quality within its tight 34-minute length. It'sunique, fun, and worth your time.
