Stone Gods - Don't Drink The WaterStone Gods - Don't Drink The Water

At the moment the UK alternative music scene has some really outstanding up and coming bands that are slowly becoming pretty big, the main two that I can think of are the stunning Slaves To Gravity who play every live show like it's their last which helped them win a few awards at this years Kerrang awards and secondly Stone Gods, the band feature 3 of the 4 members from The Darkness but sound nothing like The Darkness whatsoever, instead what we have here is a true rock and roll band with a bit of a punk rock edge, they have played the major rock festivals across the summer, they have also supported Velvet Revolver this year and have also been nominated for some Classic Rock Magazine Awards, as you can see times are very good for the Stone Gods.

The first single the Stone Gods ever released was 'Burn The Witch', the song was the lead track from the EP of the same name, the band then went on to release their debut album 'Silver Spoons And Broken Bones' and soon after released the first single from the album 'Knight Of The Living Dead' which happens to be one of the best songs from the album, The Stone Gods are heading out for a mammoth tour across the UK throughout the whole of November with Aussie rockers Airbourne and to coincide with the tour they are releasing 'Don't Drink The Water' as a single.

'Don't Drink The Water' is a blast of a song, it's as rocking as the best rock songs that have ever been released, it's as fast and furious as any punk songs you have ever heard, it's got the cross over feel that will please listeners on the radio due to its radio friendly nature and at the same time it will please fans who like things fast and heavy as the song has the whole big mixture. 'Don't Drink The Water' is with out a doubt the fastest song that the Stone Gods have ever recorded, the song is really easy to get into and once it has finished you will find yourself pressing the play button again for another listen or two. Richie Edwards has a great set of vocals and this is the perfect song to get you into the Stone Gods, seriously, things don't get much better than this.

Stone Gods deserve all the success that they have been getting, in fact I believe that the band should be more successful than what they are, but I am sure in time they will become bigger and bigger, the band are on tour with Airbourne and the tour promises to be an outstanding tour as both bands are so much fun to listen to.

5/5
