Album Description
Anthem for the Underdog will be 12 Stones' third album. It will be released on August 14, 2007. The first single will be "Lie to Me". The song World So Cold was used in a tribute video found on YouTube for the victims of the Virginia Tech massacre shooting. In a bulletin posted on the band's MySpace page, the band said that they were surprised the song surfaced because it had not been released. However, the band members said they were "touched and humbled" by the video.

12 Stones' third release, Anthem for the Underdog, finds the middling Louisiana-based quartet in good form. Although the record focuses too heavily on ballads and ballad-like pieces, the moments when the band steps out with thoroughly adequate rockers ("Anthem for the Underdog," "Adrenaline," "Games You Play") are memorable enough. The inspirational message at each tune's core comes across without painfully overt didacticism ("It Was You," "This Dark Day" and "World So Cold"). Many tracks are bound for rock radio glory and, doubtless, equal play in the cars, bedrooms and pricey portable listening devices of suburban American youth. 12 Stones doesn't reinvent pop music--it's still a cross between early Hootie and the Blowfish and a less inventive Jars Of Clay--but it does create memorable workaday compositions that are sure to satisfy the listener's desire to get in touch with the disparate emotions of hope and despair, and to feel more of the former despite the looming presence of the latter. --Jedd Beaudoin

Customer Reviews

They just get better!
I have liked 12 Stones since their very first release. I was so thrilled when I found out they had come back from their hiatus to create a new album. And...let me tell you- this album does not disappoint. It is by far my favorite album to date from them! Lyrically it shows how they have grown and matured. Musically it does not disappoint either. I feel that it shows growth and maturity not only lyrically and musically but also spiritually. Some of my favorite songs off the album are Lie To Me, Broken Road, Hey Love, and It Was You.

I highly recommend this album to all hard core Christian music lovers!

Great CD
This is a GREAT cd!! I love every song on it. I don't know why some people complain and says this cd isn't that good. But I think every song is wonderful.
