SCHAMMASCH - Contradiction (Splatter)

REISSUE - SPLATTER VINYL SCHAMMASCH met in Basel in 2009. From the very beginning, the band never gave a thought to which genre they would fit into, but rather considered their current creative work to be more far-reaching and, first and foremost, more artistically significant than narrow genre boundaries. Moreover, the band's roots can be seen in future-oriented Black Metal, to which the band adds a razor-sharp mixture of dark atmospheric doom and hermetic mysticism. After a year of carefully honing their work, SCHAMMASCH released their debut album "Sic Lvceat Lvx" on a Swiss Black Metal underground label and presented their live shows alongside international extreme metal acts like JEX THOTH, TEMPLE OF BAAL, VORKREIST, EVOKEN and FORGOTTEN TOMB. Their ambitious debut collected much praise from many corners of the extreme metal music world. Legacy magazine in Germany wrote at the time " With a work of art like this, there is only one recommendation: Go and buy it, because you won't regret it.14/15" As the first Swiss band to be signed to Prosthetic, SCHAMMASCH now release their second work "Contradiction" as a double album. The album was recorded and produced by none other than V. Santura (ex-CELTIC FROST and TRIPKYTON guitarist). An extensive, epic work over 85 minutes long, with majestic artwork by the artist Valnoir of the Metastazis Studio in Paris. "Contradiction" is a truly impressive work of great importance, both for extreme music in 2014 and for the rich heritage of forward-looking Swiss metal in general.
