Estoner - Biography


Biography

Estoner was founded in the long, cold winter of 2009 by the strings trio Kristian, Ralf and Jaanus. The band added drummer Anton in 2010 and singer Corey in early 2011, and with this core crew of five, they were ready to unleash their dark sound onto the unsuspecting world. Estoner perfected their art on the stage, playing live regularly in 2011, most notably with French doom-metal band Herscher in Tartu. The band released a demo cd of three songs, which sold out. Estoner's sound is a mixture of stoner rock, doom metal and psychedelia: they quote Down, Electric Wizard and Black Sabbath as influences, but their sound is all their own.

In October 2012, Estoner released their debut full length album, titled The Stump Will Rise.
