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

12 Stones were formed in the small New Orleans suburb of Mandeville, LA. The<br />
group was mostly still in their teens when they formed the lineup of vocalist<br />
Paul McCoy, bassist Kevin Dorr, guitarist Eric Weaver, and drummer Aaron Gainer.<br />
After performing no more than 12 live performances, they took their demo to New<br />
York City and performed at an industry showcase. The band ended up signing to<br />
Wind Up Records to record their debut album with producer Jay Baumgardner. The<br />
album saw a release in 2002, less than two years after the formation of the<br />
group. More success came to the band in 2003, when McCoy duetted on "Bring Me to<br />
Life" with Evanescence, which became a smash hit and was included on the<br />
Daredevil soundtrack as well as Evanescence's debut album, Fallen. 12 Stones<br />
released their second album, Potter's Field, which featured a heavier, more<br />
guitar-driven sound than their debut. After taking a break from music to spend<br />
time with their families, the band reconvened to make their third album.<br />
Inspired by the effects of Hurricane Katrina on their hometown, 12 Stones<br />
recorded Anthem for the Underdog in Memphis, TN, with Justin Rimer and Skidd<br />
Mills during the better part of 2006, and the album was released in 2007.<br />
