Release Date: 20th February 2026
Some of that good old working class punk with a bit of post-Arctic Monkeys social commentary.
Ever since their rapid rise in the depths of lockdown, Liverpool's STONE have tended to thrive best when leaning into the chaos.
Having further sealed themselves as a vital force on the global punk scene with their 2024 debut album 'Fear Life For A Lifetime', the band are back with a follow-up that's loaded with their most reflective and bruising work to date. 'AUTONOMY' comes as a fierce testament to the band's resilience, fighting spirit and togetherness.
Having publicly come to an end of their major label agreement earlier in the year, this is the sound of friends settling old scores while learning to have fun again. Discussing that sense of freedom behind the material, frontman Fin Power says the band were determined to finally put the industry bullshit to one side and make the album they wanted That sense of togetherness and cohesion is writ-large across 'AUTONOMY' - an album that sees Power at his most introspective and vulnerable, while sonically maintaining the scuzzy powerhouse sound that's seen the band hold down mainstage status across Europe.
