Stone Angels are an amazing band from Brighton who will rock your socks off with this album. Every track is an absolute banger and everyone needs to listen to it!!
Where The Crows fly
What a track to start the album with, OMG, love it! Straight away you have this slow, moody guitar from James that is then joined by the singer, Niall, that then leads onto a short drums solo from Loz to take you into the rest of the song. It’s not a big up-tempo number but it has a good punch to it. It’s like the band are saying “are you ready for this?”
Gambler
What I love about this song is that there is a bit of to and frow between the singer and guitarist in the verses. Niall sings and then James plays, like they answer each other, gives the song a great vibe because they then come together for the chorus and the songs tempo goes up. Nice bass parts from Sam as well in this song.
Hold On
I got some real Queen’s Of The Stone Age vibes from this song, especially with the drums and guitar parts, this song has a better guitar solo though lol. This one really got me moving around.
Up In Smoke
A very slow, moody and sad song, it's a very emotional sounding song. I love whatever effect was used on the guitar in the solo, it made it stand out so much compared to the rest of the song.
Halfway To Nowhere
Thought this was going to be another moody one but then the chorus kicked in and upped the rock vibe to be really meaty. OMG the squeal on the guitar solo is amazing! I could almost imagine James standing at the front of the stang, one foot on a floor speaker (the legendary rock pose) and bending the strings to get that squeal. I need to see this song played live.
Over The Edge
Talk about changing the pace! This one is fast and lous from start to finish. It had me out of my seat and up doing my best air guitar impression (with a big duck pout) within seconds of it starting! I don't know if it's an effect or if Niall is doing something to his voice but I got some awesome Ozzy vibes from him. His voice, the music, it all just merged perfectly in this song. I know I keep going on about the guitar solos but I promise you, this one is frigging amazing!!! This is most definitely my favourite track on the album.
Ghost Of New York
This is another sad song but beautifully put together. Loving the subtle use of a symthasiser, it added that extra layer that makes such a difference to the song. The music is dramatic without taking any attention away from the lyrics, you can really feel the emotion through the music.
Supercharged
Raunchy is a good enough word for this song! My butt was wiggling in my seat the second the drums came in. "I'm surcharged!" Hell yeah I am, especially listening to this song. I dare you to sit down while listening to this track, it's not possible!
Western Dreams
In the same way that Where The Crows Fly was the perfect start to the album, Western Dreams is the perfect finishing track. It gets you up on your feet one last time to sway your arms in the air and leaves you wanting to start the album all over again.
