Stone Blind State – have just released thier grunge punk Single ‘Electric Lady’ ahead of new album, you can read our single review here

Irish rock outfit Stone Blind State tap into their rawest instincts on their new single “Electric Lady,” a track that confidently leans into the band’s grunge and punk foundations while sharpening their modern edge. From the opening bars, the song crackles with energy, driven by thick, distorted guitars and a rhythm section that feels both urgent and tightly controlled.

The track thrives on contrast. The verses simmer with a gritty restraint before bursting into a chorus that’s loud, hook heavy and unapologetically bold. There’s a clear nod to 90s grunge in the fuzzy guitar tones and sneering attitude, but the punk influence is just as present in the song’s punchy pacing and no nonsense structure. Stone Blind State don’t overstay their welcome here, instead they hit hard, make their point, and get out.

The performance strikes a compelling balance between swagger and grit, delivering lyrics that feel charged with tension and attitude without tipping into cliché. The band’s chemistry is evident throughout, with each element serving the song rather than competing for attention. The production keeps things raw enough to preserve the track’s edge, while still sounding polished and intentional.

“Electric Lady” is a reminder of Stone Blind State’s ability to channel classic rock influences through a contemporary lens. It’s a snarling, energetic single that showcases the band at their most confident and suggests there’s plenty more fire left to come.

“Electric Lady” scores a nice 7 out of 10

Rating: 7 out of 10.
