Stone Fury was a US American rock band active from 1984 - 1986.[2]

History

Lenny Wolf and Bruce Gowdy met in 1983 to found Stone Fury. Their debut album Burns Like a Star was released the following year, "to strong critical reaction but, surprisingly, precious few sales,"[2] although it has even invited comparisons to Led Zeppelin since.[3] Their only single Break Down the Wall, taken from the album, peaked at #47 in the US rock charts in 1984.[4] Their sophomore effort Let Them Talk also saw only limited success.

Consequently, the band split up: Wolf went back to his native Germany to return to the US with his new band Kingdom Come in 1987. Gowdy went on to work with World Trade.
