Unhold

The Swiss formation Unhold has been an active band for over 25 years, fusing together a unique mix of sludge, doom, post metal and noise rock, and in the process cementing themselves as a staple in the scene. Unhold is an experimental chunk of heaviness, relentlessly exploring new paths.
Unhold thrives on dynamics, the alternation of emotions and the variety in their artistic choices of instrumentation. They represent five musicians putting a wealth of thought, energy and work into making emotionally complex creations, which only start to reveal themselves after several listens. Hope, conception, anger and agony generate a space and a sonic architecture which bears witness to a conscious existence and vigorous force. Unhold early on coined the term “Alpine Distortion”, accounting for their provenance and their conglomerate of heavy music.
