Avalon Stone showcases her powerhouse vocals with her debut single “Forget You.” The singer edges on the spirit of ’90s icons like Alice In Chains, The Cranberries, and The Smashing Pumpkins witch which she creates her art.
Stone’s voice, thick, deep, and almost intimidating, finds its perfect home in the metal genre. From the first note, there’s a contagious energy in her furious gnarl, a growl that emanates from the depths of her throat. What stands out is the versatility of Stone’s voice. While it carries an inherent strength, there’s a sensitivity and touch that adds layers to the music. She effortlessly navigates an epic vocal range, with her notes rising in the air with her core undone.
The music doesn’t relent, either. “Forget You” has the guitar gnarling and driving grittily and grungeyly against pounding drums. The instrumental arrangement showcases the best of metal with an atmosphere of controlled chaos in conjunction with the intimidating vocals.
The lyrics of “Forget You” delve into the post-breakup sensations. Stone expresses the dichotomy of feeling hurt and the burning desire to forget they who was once cherished. Coming from her own story, we see the emotions real and raw, manifesting in us the authenticity prevailing in her voice. The chorus pierces through like a powerful mantra, pushing her to learn and try to forget.
Avalon Stone is coming live soon to give you a touch of her grit in real-time in Ontario, Canada this November and December and next year as well. So mark your calendars and stay tuned with this rising star.
