Music: Breaking Free and Burning Bright: STONE's "Never Again" Roars Defiance

STONE is a Liverpool-based four-piece fronted by vocalist and guitarist Finlay Power, playing a charged fusion of punk, hardcore, and alternative rock. Emerging in 2020, they released their debut album "Fear For A Lifetime" in July 2024, produced with Rich Costey. Known for visceral energy and electrifying live shows, STONE has become a significant force in the UK's new wave of punk and alternative music.

Released in August 2025 as their first new music in a year, "Never Again" marks STONE's return following their departure from major label Polydor Records. The track is both a declaration of independence and a personal exploration of recovery and sobriety. Frontman Fin Power channels frustrations from feeling treated like a disposable commodity by the label, while drawing inspiration from Cyberpunk 2077's themes of resistance and rebellion. Recorded live with intentionally raw production, the song features distorted guitars, driving rhythms, and Power's urgent vocals exploding into fierce choruses. It's a fiery anthem about breaking free from toxic cycles and refusing to repeat past mistakes.
