About this product
Switzerland has always been a fertile breeding ground for Extreme Metal. Messiah were formed in 1984 and issued two truly ground breaking records on Chainsaw Murder Records, »Hymn To Abramelin« in 1986 and »Extreme Cold Weather« a year later. In the early 1990s Messiah signed to Karl Walterbach's Noise Records tag and issued three more full-length albums »Choir Of Horrors« (1991), »Rotten Perish« (1992) and »Underground« (1994) before going their separate ways. In 2018, Messiah decided to reform in the original line-up of their Noise Records albums with Andy Kaina on vocals, Steve Karrer on drums, Patrick Hersche on bass and band founder R. B. Brögi on guitar. Lavish re-issues of »Hymn To Abramelin« and »Extreme Cold Weather« came out on High Roller Records before a new studio album entitled »Fracmont« was released in 2020. This is now followed by »Christus Hypercubus«, Messiah's opus magnus. On November 4th 2022, fate struck as former Messiah vocalist Andy Kaina died after a heart attack at the age of only 53. It was a huge shock for everybody involved. Andy's last live performance with Messiah took place at the Old Capitol in Langenthal, Switzerland, on the 20th of November 2021.

With acts such as Hellhammer/Celtic Frost and Coroner but also more obscure outfits such as Fear Of God, Excruciation or Infected Switzerland has always been a fertile breeding ground for Extreme Metal. Messiah were formed in 1984 and issued two truly ground breaking records on Chainsaw Murder Records, InchHymn To AbramelinInch in 1986 and InchExtreme Cold WeatherInch a year later. In the early 1990s Messiah signed to Karl Walterbach's Noise Records tag and issued three more full-length albums InchChoir Of HorrorsInch (1991), InchRotten PerishInch (1992) and InchUndergroundInch (1994). The songwriting for the new album after 26 years in 2020 called InchFracmontInch (the ancient name of mount Pilatus near Luzern in Switzerland) was according to guitarist Brögi a very open process InchWe had no master plan about the musical direction of the album whatsoever. But this is the usual approach of Messiah. We just play what we like and have no preconceptions about which way to go musically. We all have changed over the years. This may sound too simple but InchFracmontInch represents Messiah in the here and now. Regarding style, I can only speak for myself, but I still love the bands of my youth. I just play what I like, I don't copy any current trends. On the other hand, I don't want to become a parody of my younger self also.Inch Album Tracks 1. Sacrosanctus Primitivus 2. Fracmont 3.

Formed in 1984, Messiah played a major role in the development of thrash and death metal in Switzerland. They released two groundbreaking albums on Chainsaw Murder Records Hymn To Abramelin in 1986 and Extreme Cold Weather in 1987. In the early nineties, Messiah signed a contract with Karl Walterbach's tag Noise Records, on which three more albums were released Choir Of Horrors (1991), Rotten Perish (1992), and Underground (1994).
