Scotland's Serotone have been together since 2003 and have been making
a name for themselves by touring across Scotland and the UK ever since
they formed. The band have been busy in the studio working on their debut
album 'Moment Of Transparency' which they have produced themselves and
will release on Re-Action Records shortly. In the meantime the band are
releasing their debut single 'Shine Alone' and to be honest the production
seems a bit dodgy but the song itself is outstanding.
The band are influenced by Tool, Glassjaw and the Deftones which you certainly
notice when listening to 'Shine Alone', but at the same time they sound
like their own band as well. 'Shine Alone' is such a good song that has
so much going on at once, yet it all seems to fit together perfectly,
the song starts off quietly with Dale's mellow vocals which builds up
in passion and power along with the bands music. During the chorus, Dale's
vocals are strong and stand out well, the double dosage of crunching guitars
add variety to the song, the crashing drumming and the bass lines add
further depth to the bands sound.
If the rest of Serotone's album is as good as 'Shine Alone', and their
live show is as hard hitting and energetic as this then Serotone could
definitely be a band worth looking out for throughout the year.
4/5
