Stone Vengeance

The long-running California heavy metal band STONE VENGEANCE today posted an interview in which they talk about the history of the band going back to the origins in the late 1970s, and their activities in 1980s and more. In the interview they talk about a bunch of old stories about the scene in the Bay Area in the 1980s when things were in the early days. Anyway, they cover quite a few topics, including some ridiculous stories, like shocking the unsuspecting audience at the Juneteenth Festival that had no idea what they were about to witness. Below you will find some information about the band and some tunes to hear.
The above mentioned interview itself is at the link at the bottom; it is the next-to-last link.

True metalheads may be surprised that we're talking up Stone Vengeance instead of one of those hip new post-black metal freaks like the mysterious Leviathan. Granted, Leviathan's underground drone is cool and all, but Stone Vengeance, three maverick black dudes from Bayview-Hunters Point, have been kicking ass under the radar for 27 years. So it's about time that the trio's raw, leather-clad speed metal attack (which fucks eardrums in the fine tradition of Venom, Raven, Celtic Frost, Manowar, and Iron Maiden) gets some well-deserved attention. Hell, just track down the vinyl reissue of the group's mid-'80s stuff, titled Here Lies Stone Vengeance 1987 , and you'll understand why the band's all-too-rare recordings are sought after by rabid collectors of speed metal and thrash. Better yet, check out a live concert — because Stone Vengeance shows no signs of slowing down.
