Stoner Kings is a stoner rock - band from the Central Finland university town of Jyväskylä . It was founded in 2000 by the Canadian singer Starbuck, who previously worked as a wrestler in England . The debut album Brimstone Blues was released in early 2002 on the band's own label Rebel Breed Recordings and was re-released in the summer of 2002 by Massacre Records . The music magazine Visions described the music as a "dirty bastard" from "stoner, metal and rock ".
On the second album Fuck the World from 2006, previously released exclusively on Rebel Breed Recordings, the band worked with a number of guest singers, including Pasi Rantanen from Thunderstone , Marco Hietala from Nightwish and former Lullacry singer Tanya Kemppainen.
