DEMONS TRACK LISTING: “Your Pain Up My Veins“ “Drowning In The Void“ “How Do You Dare“ “A Promise In The Air“ “Where Does Your Mind Go” “Kater” “Storm” “Head In A Hole” “What A Lie” “Flying With The Crows” “2048” NONEXISTER thrive on the interplay of electronic energy and hard catharsis. The band’s very first single Your Pain Up My Veins was released in March 2023, with a spectacularly dark video starring actress Carol Schuler. Second single Drowning In The Void followed in June, with an equally cinematic and highly sophisticated video. Sonic whirlwind ‘How Do You Dare‘ came next in September 2024, its video featuring rising British theatre/TV star Selina Jones (Kaos, Raised By Wolves), who won “Best Female Actor in a Play” at the 2022 Black British Theatre Awards. As if they were blasting an after-hours club in the middle of nowhere, the group, consisting of Marco Neeser (electronics, songwriting, production), Nik Leuthold (vocals, songwriting, production), Reto “Fu” Gaffuri (bass), Siro Müller (drums, backing vocals) and Silvan Gerhard (guitar, backing vocals), swing like a pendulum between moments of industrial ecstasy and moshpit-worthy outbursts. ABOUT NONEXISTER “The first album I bought was Computer World by Kraftwerk, and the second was No Sleep ‘Til Hammersmith by Motörhead – which pretty much describes where I come from,” laughs Marco. “For me, creating music is about creating atmospheres. I like to conjure soundscapes. I try to bring beauty into noise. Nik has a different approach. He’s a songwriter, and he aims to tell stories. The lyrics are very important – and he’s an amazing singer. So, it’s a thrilling match.” Co-founders Marco and Nik drew on dynamic and distinct backgrounds at the onset of the project. Marco, the electronic maverick, honed his creativity and stage presence in the likes of Swandive, Division Kent, me.man.machine., and Glitter Wasteland, gracing the stages of major festivals and cities across Europe. Meanwhile, Nik powered the punk upstarts Catchpole, and he voices one of the robots of the ground-breaking robot band Compressorhead, for which John Wright, frontman of the Hanson Brothers and drummer for the legendary No Means No, writes the music and is the voice of the robot singer. Simultaneously, Nik has entrenched himself in Switzerland’s dynamic subculture scene including the legendary Wohlgroth and fostering the launch of initiatives such as independent cultural and political force Radio Stadtfilter. Given the intimate nature of their hometown’s music community, Nik and Marco crossed paths many times through the years. After grabbing a drink one evening, they decided to collaborate in the studio, giving rise to NONEXISTER. The two artists went into Marco’s home studio and began creating songs for the first NONEXISTER album, eventually teaming up at New Sound Studio with producer Tommy Vetterli – the mastermind of Coroner and a member of legendary thrashers Kreator – who added another dimension to their production efforts. It was also Vetterli who brought the two together with guitarist Jonas Wolf, who played most of the guitars on the forthcoming album, but has since handed over on NONEXISTER to his friend Silvan Gerhard to focus on his role within Eluveitie. NONEXISTER are Marco Neeser [electronics, songwriting, production], Nik Leuthold [vocals, songwriting, production], Reto “Fu” Gaffuri [bass], Siro Müller [drums, backing vocals], and Silvan Gerhard [guitar, backing vocals]. |
