ABOUT

System and Station have been crafting smart, angular indie-pop for a decade now. While most bands have a tough time reaching the 10-year mark without growing stale or going through the motions, S&S are busy writing albums that consistently move forward into a melodic and tighter whole without sacrificing the serrated edge of their live shows.

Their new EP, ‘I’m Here To Kill’, features guest appearances by Scott Hampton (Bear Proof, Acetalyne), Douglas Jenkins (The Portland Cello Project)m and Elizabeth Venable (Sad Horse), who sings the lead on the haunting track “I’m Here To Kill”.

This short-playing EP is lyrically based on the true story of a woman living in the Pacific Northwest, her struggle with abusive relationships and the loss of her child at the hands of her then husband. S&S leader Ryan Heise, explains, “The title I’m Here To Kill comes from her stories of revenge. Waking up next to her husband, watching him sleep and thinking “I love you but I’m going to kill you”.

Larry Crane, of famed Portland Studio Jackpot!, recorded and produced ‘I’m Here To Kill’.
