Define your genre in five words or less:
Doom/stoner rock.
So, someone is walking past as you guys are playing, they then go get a beer and tell their friend about you… what do they say?
“Whoa, Stone Grave are kind of like a more attractive version of Black Sabbath, but I really thinking that balding bassist should just cut his losses and shave his head.”
How long have you been gigging and writing?
As a band we started writing about a year ago, just as a side project for a few of us. It then kind of took control over our other bands after we got some songs together and we played our first gig in March.
What inspires or has influenced your music the most?
Our Lord and savior, Satan.
What do you think a band has to do these days to succeed?
Write open string breakdowns and use cuss words.
Do you have any record releases to date? What? Where can I get it?
We put out a 2-track EP earlier in the year, which can be downloaded for free off our Bandcamp, or physicals can be picked up at a show.
Why should everyone come and see your band?
Our guitarists’ name is Darren, our bassist is going bald, our other guitarist has pretty fucked nipples from piercings gone wrong and our drummer is about three foot four with a hairy arse. Couple that with bone crushing riffs and we will melt your face off.
STONE GRAVE play at the Brunswick Hotel on Friday July 17 with Wolfpack, The Approach, The Wrecks and Groundswell.
