I've been looking for info on Stone Dozer

I like their music and I want to know more about the band. Unfortunately, there's not much out there other than a repeat of the information they have given on their YouTube channel. At least not in English.

The band has changed their name from "Hellswrath" to "Stone Dözer" and it seems to be a rather recent change. When searching for "Hellswrath" I find more information, but not in English. On this page you'll find photos of the band as well as information about the band in Spanish. (Obvious since they are Argentinian.) The post is two years old and they have changed drummer since then.

The band was formed in 2005 by Silvio "The Wizard" Laiz (guitar) and Juan Manuel "The Scorpion" Shaw (vocals). Sherman "Cobra" (bass) and Ezequiel (drums) joins the band in 2007. (I can't figure out when Ezequiel was replaced by Alejandro Gugliotti.)

Between 2005 and 2007 they recorded several songs and in 2007 they played at the music festival EPSAM to 600. Later in 2007 Shaw left the band because of the birth of his daughter and the band ended up on ice from 2007 to 2009 when he joined again.

Then there is a blank spot in the information that I can find, from 2009 and up to late 2010, when the band announces the coming album "Long Live the Kïng". Now with the new band name Stone Dözer. This page, has links to the videos, photos of the new band line up and links to the band's different web pages.

It seems as if the planned album release in January 2011 has been postponed. I can't find it for sale anywhere online. It's a shame because I really like their music.
