  • Description

    Stone was formed in 1985. Janne Joutsenniemi and Roope Latvala, who were the two masterminds of Stone, had been playing together with varying line-ups and band names for a few years before that, said to have earlier played under the name Cross of Iron.

    They became Stone when Pekka Kasari and Jiri Jalkanen joined the group. They originally played a more traditional heavy metal style, but gained more popularity as they went for a more aggressive speed/thrash sound.

    They became the crowd favorite of the Metal Massacre underground show, and were noticed by Finnish rock magazine Rumba in 1987.

    The same year they released their first single and their s/t debut album in 1988 where they played a Bay-area style of speed/thrash.

    With their second release, "No Anaesthesia" in 1989, their style became more technical/neo-classical thrash.

    Other two releases followed: "Colours" in 1990 and "Emotional Playground" (1992), year when they splitted up.

    Stone reunited for a few very successful festival shows in 2000, 2008 and 2009. Currently they are active, but there are no news about them.
