Beginning to decide I might sell off the three albums I got...WiC, Heiland and Eisenkopf...just can't get into them at all really.

Am I missing something?
The only songs I thought were any good were Der Spinner and Es h?rt nie auf...the rest just seem rather boring. Might trade them (along with Das Ich - Anti'Christ and Nile - Annihilation of the Wicked) for some Opeth or the first Dornenreich album.

Oh that's interesting. Ah well I guess atleast you gave them a go..

I never really got into Heiland either, but Willkommen im Club and Eisenkopf are still very good albums.

I had downloaded the albums many years ago and really loved Schweisser, but then over the years I slowly lost interest, but I bought 4 of their albums anyway hoping that one day I will like them some more again. Plus it's nice to support the music that I listened to, even if I don't listen to it a lot now.

i almost don't dare to say it, but last time i listened to megaherz and weissglut is a veeeery long time ago :oops:

you just need a brake some times, and in fact of music, this needs more time than only a few weeks.

after you listened to a lot of this modern fancy crap, you will gladly come back to Schweisser someday and say:
"hey man, that's some kick ass genius metal!" :wink:

Jrgen didn't get into Heiland, hmm. i understand why. it's very text-oriented and maybe on the lyrical side the strongest Schweisser Album ever. but as you said "Willkommen im Club" and "Eisenkopf" are just unbelievable!

Listen to "immer im Kreis" at 4:05 and pump up the volume, CRANK it up! all the way, BANG your head, now that is powerfull GERMAN METAL :wink:
(combined with the text this song is brilliant. it's about life beeing always the same and no sense in it as you might know (so from there comes the repetetive structure of the music)
"ich schlage meine F?uste blutig an der chromverputzten Wand" is maybe the coolest expression that i ever heard from Schweisser :twisted

that's the coolest thing about Schweisser, they have nearly in every secound song time for an extensive e-guitar solo 8)

Yes, I need some time away from certain music also. My interests come in phases, so I will love a band for a few months and then I need a break so I listen to something else. One day I'm sure I will come back and love Schweisser, but the question is when.

I remember I was really into Schweisser in 2002 when I met Gary from Stahlhammer, because we talked about Schweisser and he likes them too.

Right now I'm a little away from German music and I'm listening to some smaller independent bands in New York City.

Flesh Field is another band I'm really into right now, they have amazing music! Their "Strain" album is really great and I recommend it for all of you. You can hear some samples here:

OK, enough rambling now... I'll be back later
