Forged from the hardest Jura rock, their music surges like wild torrents from the speakers. Smokeheads is an
atypical group, caressing raw metal before hammering it out on the anvil.
SMOKEHEADS has perfected an Alternative Metal which is both enjoyable and original. The group consists of Philippe on drums,
Alain on bass, David C. on guitar and David Z. vocals and guitar. Each one has his own stage and musical past, trying out
moods along the way and accumulating ever more fruitful experiences that have brought them closer to their artistic voice.
Together they have forged a new, melodic and powerful alloy. Don’t try to find their formula. This type of alchemy mixes so
many influences (Toto, Gojira, Queen of the Stone Age, Mastodon, System of a Down, Tool, Porcupine Tree, Devin Townsend
and many more), that there is no need to explain further. Just listen.
Listening to songs wrapped around a mesmerizing rhythm, picked up along the way by the hoarse and staccato breath of the
guitars, the scene is set for the rich, deep-toned voice of the singer. Smokeheads’ music has a simplicity and truth which
compels the ear, rising through the ages yet wonderfully contemporary.
