Ever stumble on a track that punches harder than your morning coffee? That’s Standoff, the latest from Maryland’s Carbonstone, and it's got a hell of a twist: Jonny Santos of Spineshank and Silent Civilian fame jumps in to light the fuse.
This isn't just another feature. It's a collision of eras. Santos' unmistakable grit meets Carbonstone's signature industrial thump, and the result is something both nostalgic and brand new: Like 2000s aggression reengineered for post-pandemic chaos.
Captured in a raw, unfiltered video you can catch here, the track doesn’t just slap, it stings. Guitars growl, synths swirl like smoke in a burning room, and that chorus? It’s got claws.
Carbonstone have been on a tear lately. After the haunting “Echoes”, they’re gearing up for a full-length album, The Absence of Self, co-produced with Santos. If these singles are any indication, the record won’t just revisit nu-metal roots: It’ll pull them out of the ground and rewire them.
Live, they’ve already shared stages with heavyweights like Cold, Drowning Pool, and Nita Strauss. And yep, they’re up for Best Metal Band at the 2024 Maryland Music Awards. Not bad for a band that sounds like a steel factory possessed by ghosts.
Bottom line? “Standoff” doesn’t ask for attention, it demands it. Crank it loud. Your neighbors will understand.
