Brief Description
Stone 588's sound combines atmospheric, swirling guitar gothic with tribal rhythms and emotive female vocals ranging from operatic to banshee-like. Songs range from melodic ethereal melodies to heavy death rock, and lyrics are drawn from celtic mythology, literature, supernatural themes and mystical folklore.
History/Biography
Formed in 1992 by vocalist Terri Kennedy and guitarist Dave Rhine, the band's 80's punk-influenced death rock sound matured with the addition of keyboards and darkwave elements. CD releases include 1995's "Door in the Dragon's Throat" and "Midnight Claret" plus over 21 compilation appearances worldwide. Stone 588 has performed live with gothic notables Rozz Williams, Eva O., Shadow Project, Dave Vanian, Human Drama, The Last Dance, Cinema Strange and others. |
