The band's latest release, a 6 track EP, "Reset", received a positive feedback from both fans and press and nowadays Stone Kings is ready to unleash its brand new full-length record which is entitled "From Creation To Devastation".
After the solid instrumental "Creation" comes the real thing; "Far Out" is the opener tune. A 'punchy' rocker that includes a nice riffing, powerful vocals and a raw sound that reminded me a bit of the early 90's Seattle scene. "Headshot" and "Outcast" are both some killer guitar driven powerful hard rock songs with a big groove in it and attitude. The acoustic "Time Out" is a true highlight!! Slower and 'darker' with a haunting melody this track grabbed me at once. "Lovelace" grooves hard while the Alice In Chains-esque "In My Place" is one of my personal favorites here.
To be honest here, Stone Kings is a band that rocks hard, there is no doubt 'bout that! The late 80's hard rock elements along with some alternative pinches are givin' to the final result a 'strange' and beautiful approach and at the end achieve to make this record a pleasant ride all the way. This UK act has plenty of talent and its music is tight and solid. I like the guitar parts a lot and the big groove in each song is givin' the extra flavor to the final result. Do a favor to yourself and check out this band!
