Their uncompromising attitude is even apparent before you hear a note of their music -- it's right there in that deliberate tongue-twister of a name. On X, their Cuneiform Records debut, Schnellertollermeier boldly emerge from their key position in Switzerland’s underground rock scene with sharpened sonic knives, dialed up intensity, and laser-edged tunes to carve out a spot for themselves on the international stage. X is the young trio’s third recording, and in it they don't merely redefine their sound, they reinvent it. The tunes the band came up with -- after cloistering themselves away in a house in the Swiss mountains that served as their musical mad-scientist's laboratory -- recast the traditional function of the guitar-bass-drums lineup, expanding it into new territory and combining the brute force of Schnellertollermeier's 2008 debut with the conceptualism of their second album for something that's ultimately beyond the scope of either one. The Alps had given the trio space to let their imaginations soar. Against the sublime mountain backdrop, they perfected stark, powerful compositions and expanded their ideas.

  • Sophie Hunger Grew up in Switzerland, Britain and Germany
    Sophie Hunger grew up in Switzerland, Britain and Germany. In 2006 she recorded her first album “Sketches on Sea“ in her own front room and sold several thousand copies through direct sales. As a result of this album and its success she started working with musicians like Erik Truffaz, The Youngs Gods and Stephan Eicher. Soon her work attracted attention outside Switzerland: The Guardian described her as “Laura Marling, Beth Orton and Björk in one folk-rocking package”, Le Monde as “excellent” and the German Deutsche Musikexpress as “breath-taking”. Her first studio album “Monday’s Ghost” came out 2008 and reached Number 1 in the Swiss Album Charts, as did her next album “1983” in 2010. But Sophie Hunger’s success has gone far beyond the borders of her home country: she became the first Swiss act ever to play the prestigious Glastonbury Festival. In spring 2011 Sophie Hunger won the Swiss Award and the Prix de la Création Musicale de France. Also in 2011 she toured North America together with Madeleine Peyroux and the band Tinariwen. In Germany Hunger also won acclaim for her fictional columns in the quality newspaper die Zeit. In spring 2012 she produced and staged the one-man show “Bob Dylan - Be Part of My Dream“ (in the framework of the Grammy Museum Exhibition) at Le Cité de la Musique, Paris, which will be reprised at the Montréal Jazz Festival this summer. In addition, this summer will see her contribution to the play „Jakob Michael Reinhold Lenz” by Director Cornelia Rainer at the Salzburger Festspiele.
