Initially lurching from the UK noise underground in 2003 like a bedraggled audial creature rendered from toxic waste in a VHS horror movie, the musical growth rate of Hey Colossus has been quite a spectacle to observe. Yet from the nightmarish murk of early driller-killer works such as 2004's debut 'Hates You' and 2008's 'Happy Birthday' to more recent nuggets of perversity like 2013's 'Cuckoo Live Life Like Cuckoo', this beast has mutated and evolved into something uncommonly alluring. 

'Radio Static High' is the sound of a confident outfit honing their attack to become a veritable force of nature.With the band citing - tongue presumably firmly lodged in cheek - inspirations as diverse as Jane's Addiction, Fleetwood Mac (Tango In The Night era) and Cypress Hill, songs were constructed at a fierce rate of knots, yet with a focus and intensity partly instilled by band members living hundreds of miles apart, and partly by the relentless passage of time. "We have noticed a small wave of incredible goodwill towards us. We want to give as we receive." notes guitarist Jonathan Richards, whose chiming lead guitar plays a notable role in the album's Paris,Texas-esque midday ambience.."Maybe the knowledge of our 12 years together makes us aware of our mortality. Time is limited. A band's purpose is to create"
