Stone were a thrash metal band who formed in Helsinki, Finland in the mid-80s. They released four albums during the late 80s and early 90s, before disbanding in 1991 to pursue different musical directions. Stone reunited to play a final set of concerts in 2000, but parted ways again soon afterwards.

Despite their rather short career, Stone's legacy has provided inspiration for many of the countless metal bands who emerged during the popularity explosion of the genre during the 90s. Perhaps the most notable of these bands is Children of Bodom, whose lead guitarist Alexi Laiho credits former Stone member and current Sinergy bandmate Roope Latvala as a major influence on his playing.
