"Call This A Reality"
anchorlanemusic.com
Glasgow rock trio Anchor Lane have been hard at work over the last few years, the release of their debut album, ‘Casino’, back in 2020 gave them a new wave of dedicated fans. Conor, Lawrence, and Graeme have gone on to play live shows up and down the UK, including huge festivals like Download, Isle of Wight, Stone Free, and Belladrum, as well as guest spots with Cheap Trick and Eagles of Death Metal. Despite their extremely busy schedule, Anchor Lane hasn’t let that stop them from putting pen to paper and plectrum to string to write their second album, ‘Call This A Reality?’.
The album is twelve tracks of gloriously heavy rock played with passion and an energy that is kind of contagious. Pick any of the tracks on this album and you will not be left wanting, each would stand alone as a single in its own right. That said, the highlights for me include the album’s namesake, ‘Call This A Reality?’, ‘Nitroglycerin’ and ‘The Mischievous Song’ which really stood out.

There is something for everyone, ‘I’ve Been Waiting’ is ideal for those seeking a more modern, clean sounding rock track, while ‘Choke’ is there for those looking for something fast and heavy.
Anchor Lane have come a long way in a short time, and their journey continues this year with a UK headline tour starting in Glasgow on the 28th of January. The album, ‘Call This A Reality?’, is available from 27th of January. Visit anchorlanemusic.com for details.
