Founded in 2007 by Stefan Fehlmann (bass), Daniel Müller (drums) and Ramon Gonzalez (vocals, guitar), after Ramon moved back to Basel after 11 years in the wilderness.
All band members accumulated a good deal of gig experience in the past.
Essentially focussed on work in the rehersal room and studio, in order to make original music that is different from other stuff that is around. Live gigs are seen as happy and cherished opportunities to spread the chaos outside of the limited confines of the rehersal room
All material is self written, with end products sometimes diverging wildly from the original written song as they are worked and reworked over many months;
usually an effort is made to simplify, minimise and straighten all material
Studio sessions:
February 2011 ("In the Belly of the Whale"), engineered by Andre Champaloux, produced by Andre Champaloux and Bleak Fandango
Spring 2014 ("Strawberry Coloured Dystopia"), engineered by Alain Meyer at Wolf Studios, produced by Alain Meyer and Bleak Fandango
Summer 2016, vocals re-recorded November 2016, remix of tracks Winter 2016 ("Everything will be alright"), engineered by Alain Meyer at Wolf Studios, produced by Alain Meyer and Bleak Fandango
November 2017 ("Dark Corners and Hidden Places"), engineered by Alain Meyer at Wolf Studios, produced by Alain Meyer and Bleak Fandango
All songs are usually recorded live, but without the vocals, which are added later on. Overdubs are used sparingly and usually consist in doubling up the guitar tracks for additional umph and power.
