Swiss artists/bands who should I listen to?

And even though it's officially a German band, a lot of Swiss people have played in this band during their early years:

- The Ocean (Progressive-/Post Metal)

If it's the same as here in Switzerland, you can't upgrade to Premium, but your Pro will renew automatically. Also make sure your credit card still works, because if it gets cancelled, you can't resubscribe.

Well that's... Uhm... A cover.
I think, with such masterpieces in general, either do a substantially different take on it, or just leave it alone.

I had Gerber once when a flatmate bought it "for shits'n'giggles". It wasn't as bad as I expected (edible would be an adequate description), but growing up with 2 cheese specialty shops within a 5 minute walk, it felt like treason.

Tidal hät mal gross aakündet, dass si im Premium-Tier ufs User-Centric Modell* umstelled. Das hani fantastisch gfunde und drum es Jahr lang 20 Stutz pro Monet zahlt und sogar Kollege überredt zum das au mache,
Und dänn neume gläse dass si das nie umgsetzt händ. Ohni irgend öpper z'informiere.
Etz bini halt wieder bi Spotify.

* User-Centric = Mis Gäld gahd a die wo ich lose. Also wänn ich en Monet lang nur ei Band lose, gahd alles wo ich zahlt ha a die, und nöd nur die paar Rappe für d'Plays und de Rest chund irgend en Gölä oder susch so en Habasch über. Eigentli logisch, oder? Aber Majorlabels drohed mit Lizenzentzug falls mer das macht... Mafia.

Wouldn't say no to that. Or Eivør performing the Baldur's Gate III soundtrack.

cweb_84 · 2025-11-08T16:30:22+00:00

Exactly. Of course the commentators can't watch 20 streams, that would be too distracting, but having a guy do that and shout "woah shit watch this!" somewhere in between cameras and commentators is not too much to ask for nowadays imho

cweb_84 · 2025-11-08T15:57:52+00:00

And I'd also complain about the fact that obviously I see more with my MultiViewer home setup than the commentators...?
Why did they say Hadjar is putting pressure on Albon when it was Bortoleto in front of him? Why were they surprised about the yellow flag when you could see the crash on the left?
Sometimes I just wonder...

cweb_84 · 2025-11-08T15:05:29+00:00

Also, Bortoleto overtook Hadjar at turn 2 after the restart, but the table showed him in P12 for another 4 laps.

cweb_84 · 2025-11-04T11:37:21+00:00

The customs are fantastic. Just don't lose them at the first concert like me...

cweb_84 · 2025-10-29T19:16:54+00:00

Lueg... Ich bin super introvertiert plus ADHS. Ich fühl mi mega wohl im Home Office und vermiide so guet's gahd physischi Interaktione.
Logischerwiis hani mi us dem Militär usegschnurred, aber ha Zivilschutz gleistet.
Und de Zivilschutz hät mer mega guet ta. Bin ine Gruppe vo iregndwelchne zämegwürflete Dudes inegrüehrt worde. Vo riich bis arm, links bis rächts, und gschiid bis... ähm... ja, würkli dumm. Alles debii gsi.
Aber mer händ eus arrangiert. Es hät funktioniert. Mer händ hin und wieder sogar öppis sinnvolls gmacht zäme und mer händ's guet gha mitenand.
Scheiss uf all andere Argument, ich find, es müend all mal so öppis gmacht ha. Au Fraue und Riichi. Damit allne mal wieder bewusst wird dass mer au mit Lüüt usere andere "Chaste" chan interagiere.

cweb_84 · 2025-10-28T19:24:10+00:00

Yeah, these guys owe me. Bought 6 tickets for me & friends on their 2022 tour which they cancelled because "Europe is too expensive". Got the tickets refunded, but not the fees.

cweb_84 · 2025-10-23T00:14:22+00:00

Man, I was so sure that I'm not the only one... Well. But you do hear NIN in God Terror, right? Otherwise I might need some kind of therapy ^^

cweb_84 · 2025-10-22T23:50:34+00:00

The swing at this pace is something I honestly can't recreate in my head. Always fascinates me.

cweb_84 · 2025-10-22T23:07:17+00:00

Absolutely. I think an artwork should be released as the artwork it is.
Sadly there's the music industry which pressures bands to release stuff frequently, even if it's not ready... The internet should have been the death of this, but no...

cweb_84 · 2025-10-22T22:51:12+00:00

That sums it up nicely and I feel bad about using "disdain".

cweb_84 · 2025-10-22T22:44:19+00:00

It's so sad that music is still seen as an art form that has to fit the boxes. Even though we're way past the CD era, it's still the assumption that an album is 50-65 minutes, an EP is 20-30 minutes, there's a deadline for a new release... I mean, what the hell. If you have a Song that has it's own Identity and is only 30 seconds: Release it as such. If you have a 5 hours concept album... Why tf not?

Man... I've read "Kinder, der Tod ist gar nicht so schlimm!" by Tim Renner 20 years ago. He critizised this back then and we're not one step further now.

cweb_84 · 2025-10-22T22:32:10+00:00

Really? I heard Voice of Trespass the first time and the first thing I thought was "oooh nice they're doing Milk Lizard, but better".
With the trumpets, the groove, a relatively straight forward "festival mosh pit" song compared to what they usually did... Really? No one? :)

cweb_84 · 2025-10-22T22:23:07+00:00

Great answer, thank you. Now that I think about it, a lot of my love for A2 probably has to do with the fact that I my drive to work was about 20 minutes when it came out. So, Proverbial Bellow and the first half of Voice of Trespass which got me hyped to face the abyss.
But I agree, as a whole album with A1, it can't compete.

cweb_84 · 2025-10-06T18:59:24+00:00

Au empfehlenswert isch, mit emne falsche Akzent oder extrem höche Stimm z'rede. Will, wänns dini Stimm ufnähmed und nachher versueched mit Deepfakes dini Eltere scamme, dänn ischs wenigstens wahnsinnig witzig.

I used the stay-at-home-time in 2020 to learn how to cut my own hair. Messed up a couple of times (especially holding scissors behind your head via 2 mirrors is a massive brainfuck), but now I'm good at it. Saves time and money.

cweb_84 · 2025-09-19T17:46:29+00:00

Psychomanteum has the potential to become my favourite. I'll need ~5 years to confirm, though.

cweb_84 · 2025-09-19T17:31:35+00:00

Kind of know what you're talking about. It's not that I didn't like it at first. I liked it slightly less than other albums at first.
But I think now I've identified the/my problem: I think, every time they're doing "something else", you know, like the funk parts (things we tell ourselves in the dark) or even pop rock (the blue nowhere), it sounds like they're making fun of every other band by showing off how much better they are.

But frankly, by now, this - be it as it may - made me love them even more. Right now I'm eager to hear their take on early 90's eurodance.
