Bio:
The genesis of Cellar Stone sparked by a conversation between George Maroulees ( guitar, DIVINER/4Bitten) and Aris Pirris (vocals, Persona Non Grata).The two of them immediately started to work on an album around 2018. After a while Akis Rooster(Bass, 4Bitten) & George Karlis (Drums, The Slayerking) joined in and the line up finally completed. Influenced by the rock & metal giants of the ‘70’s, '80's and '90's such as Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Thin Lizzy, UFO, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Alice In Chains, as well as the bands of today like Black Stone Cherry, Shinedown, Mastodon and Alter Bridge , they are making their own statement in a characteristic way. Chorus’s that stick, a pandaemonium of guitar harmonies and riffs and a rhythm section that grabs at you, the band is setting the scene and they won’t go unnoticed. With live gigs already under their belt, they have begun to build their fan base. Their first full length album "One Fine Day" is ready and is a killer slice of heavy rock & metal, from players with heart, soul and spirit that shines through in the music."One Fine Day" recorded, mixed & mastered by Nick Papadopoulos @ Soundflakes Recording Studios in Athens, Greece. The final result is something fresh, heavy & intensely melodic. 10 tracks of pure heavy rock with excellent songwriting and an over the top production. If you love strong melodies, big choruses and guitar riffing Cellar Stone won't disappoint. Just dive in, the album is essential listening!
Album:
CELLAR STONE is the new band from Diviner guitarist George Maroulees and singer Aris Pirris, who headed the prog underground hero Persona Non Grata for a while, but the group's approach is more straightforward compared to those two acts and unfortunately also paler character.The quartet writes the influences of all possible big names from all decades of rock history to date, whereby the naming of Iron Maiden, Metallica or Alter Bridge can basically mean anything and nothing. In fact, after inserting "One Fine Day", it is confirmed too quickly that CELLAR STONE sound as arbitrary as one would expect from a mix of only these three bands.The spectrum of the Athenians ranges from programmatic melodic rockers such as the entry 'Lights Out' to semi-metallic uptempo numbers such as the title track, stereotypically sound-silent ('Breaking From Inside') and the classic power ballad ('Hands of Fate') up to wide-legged pathos grunge ('Breaking From Inside'), for which both Alice In Chains and Nickelback would be ashamed.The implementation of the whole is nevertheless blameless: fat (contourless) production, decent craftsmanship with a handful of reasonably remarkable guitar leads, a neatly grooving drummer and confidently but rarely credibly conveyed case emotions characterize the record.Until the end, however, it remains just a product, a service for fans of so-called modern rock, primarily of North American provenance, who cannot get enough of their favorites from the USA or Canada.CONCLUSION: CELLAR STONE from Greece are a fairly convincing copy of Stone Sour and similar combos - without depth and with a blurred profile, everyone wants to serve and ultimately achieve less than they actually could.
