Switch Opens - Express Death

 

Switch Opens from Stockholm, Sweden started out in 2000 as Fingerspitzengefühl. They made two albums for Kooljunk Communications, “Fingerspitzengefühl” in 2004 and “Happy Doomsday” in 2006, and decided to continue as Switch Opens in 2008. The band has done extensive gigging on their own, but also supported bands such as Neurosis, Scars On Broadway and Entombed. The band has earned a reputation as an adrenalized live act, crushing everything in their way. Switch Opens signed to GMR Music Group in October 2008 and the self-titled record was released in Scandinavia in September 2009 and in the rest of Europe in the end of October. In January 2010, the album won P3 Guld, the Swedish national radio music awards, in the Rock/Metal category. In May 2011, the band changed label once again. A new album is scheduled for release early 2012 on Transubstans Records.

Switch Opens will play at Strand in Stockholm on October 4th (Today). They will be joined by In Solitude and it is a release party for the film about the history of Swedish heavy metal, called Så jävla metal (So Fucking Metal). Since Micke is going to Sicily to study the occult at the Aleister Crowley Abbey, Tobias Alpadie from Gordon Fights will fill in for him.

Todays tune "Express Death" is taken from Switch Opens self titled album.
