Head Of State

Independent Newcastle rock band Head of State have had their song ‘Pointless' added to Neil Young's list of protest songs.

The band are the second Australian band to have a protest song added to Neil Young's page at http://www.neilyoung.com/lwwtoday/lwwsongspage.html, the first being Perth's Eurogliders.

The chorus of the song sums up the feelings of the artists on the page; “It seems so pointless/why don't you agree?”

Head of State were sent a handwritten note of praise from none other than Tom Waits after he heard their debut EP back in 1994.
