Everything about State Songs totally explained
State Songs is an
album released by
John Linnell (one-half of influential alternative rock band
They Might Be Giants) in
1999. It was Linnell's second full solo album, following 1996's . Four of the tracks on the album featured the
carousel organ. This
concept album features almost entirely tracks that are named after, and are at least partially inspired by, fifteen of the
50 U.S. states. The album is absurdist in nature, suggesting that there's another
West Virginia inside of the state, that one can drive a house to
Idaho, that
Montana is a leg,
Iowa is a witch, and
Arkansas has sunken and is to be replaced by a ship of its exact shape and size.
