The tandem of Stephen Burdick and Jeremiah Bertin, a.k.a. The Stone Eye, recently released a new EP Royal & Damned. Ferocious, fuzz-fueled, heavy grunge with deep, rippling rhythms and the crystallizing command of vocals are set ablaze by guitar riffs, which call to mind Alice in Chains. The acoustic “Colours In Vain” eases off the accelerator, offering a refreshing while still powerful sense of calm. The duo will be part of Fairly Local Fest this Saturday, May 13 at William Street Common.
