Biography
Default Facade is Roman Schnarrenberger and Kareem. The two formerly band members of the alternative rock band “Bloom” got together after 15 years to write music again «When we met accidentally at a party, we realized that we’re still musically and amicably associated with each other. Without intentions, we met again to write song. Our collaboration was very inspiring.» Primary ideas got worked out to demo tracks in style of alternative rock and grunge. The result was pretty exciting both of them, so they decided to release the tracks. For the drums, they hired their friend Christian Kyburz (Traufer, Fugo, etc.). «His drumming is perfect for this kind of music and adds punch to Default Facade.» «We put a lot of work into these songs on Greyscale but it was absolutely worth it.» Vocals, bass, guitars and keys were recorded individually at home or in vacant spaces, the drums at the SOS Basement Recording Studio in Oberentfelden by mixing engineer Sebastian Schiess, who had also mixed the tracks. «Default Facade is more than just music to us. It’s about friendship, doing the things you really want to do and about living in this part of the world.» For the moment, Default Facade remain as a studio project.
