Stone reunited to play a final set of concerts in 2000, but parted ways again soon afterwards.

Despite their rather short career, Stone's legacy has provided inspiration for many of the countless metal bands who emerged during the popularity explosion of the genre during the 1990s.

The band's history and influence on the Finnish metal scene was detailed in the book Stone, published in January 2018.

[2] Children of Bodom lead guitarist Alexi Laiho credits former Stone member Roope Latvala as a major influence on his playing.

Latvala himself would later join Children of Bodom as a session player, and eventually as a permanent member, after the departure of Alexander Kuoppala, and also played alongside Laiho in the now defunct Sinergy.
