"State Trooper is one of our favourite Springsteen songs, but our cover of it came about quite indirectly," explains WILDES. "We were listening to a lot of Suicide around the making of the EP, their drum machines and industrial synths heavily influencing both our work, and Springsteen’s simple, but raw production of State Trooper from 1982. We eventually decided to put our stamp on the song by leaning on Springsteen’s initial inspiration from Suicide, and we ended up with an even darker, grittier, electronic version of this already atmospheric song. It’s an important full stop on the EP, capturing the era we were inspired by and the great artists that have impacted us both as musicians."

The forthcoming EP, Kopfkino finds the two artists reuniting after St Francis Hotel produced WILDES' debut full length, Other Words Fail Me. Their Bruce Springsteen cover follows the previously released title track, "In The Floodlight", and "Are You Gonna Speak?".
