Firestone
Firestone is a hidden gem of the H8000 scene. They played metal influenced Hardcore with a style all of their own. Firestone was a band that went through a lot of line-up changes, had several singers and released two LP records, one for Sober Mind and one for Genet Records but also a demo. The founder of the band Lennart went on to form Oathbreaker and also played in AmenRa.
