Seven Stone Lighter

The slew of exciting bands from Scotland is showing no signs of slowing. Melodic rockers 7 Stone Lighter are the latest to create a buzz. The group's wide influence range (Interpol to Glassjaw) shines through, and the care and thought put into each track is immediately clear. The group has built up a great and supportive fan base in their native Scotland, which has brought them invites onto regional dates on national tours from the likes of Funeral For A Friend, thisGIRL, Million Dead, Shouting Myke and Firstborn. 7 Stone Lighter have just released their much anticipated EP 'Hope Against Hope'. The EP really does throw different songs into the equation, rather than four carbon copies. What's also great is that there's no sense of A-side's, each song is strong enough to take the lead, something which is rare for rising British bands. With an early offering of this caliber, and a continuous writing schedule, there’s no doubt you'll be forced to sit up and pay attention shortly, but why wait? 7 Stone Lighter have truly set the ball rolling with this debut offering.
