While we were producing issue 10 of State, we asked the bands featured to give us an MP3 to us so we could put our money where our mouths are. So here for your enjoyment is a 13 track compilation from some of the best new Irish bands and artists (as single listening or in a ZIP) which we expect to be making a good noise in 2009.

The issue is embedded below (click to enlarge) so you can read and listen at the same time. Hah – the magic of multimedia!
