About Me

We're sadly announcing that our supposed deal with Harmonix/MTV to place one of our songs in the new RockBand game (Playstation/XBox, European/UK release) has passed away without suffering the night of March 21, 2008 due to licensing issues. Only to cheer us up a little we felt obliged to answer this by writing this newest song 'Ether Dome' (hear a very roughly recorded draw for a short period of time) in which we proclaim absolute halt of the universe - we think of it as MAGIC.
If you'd like to read more or to comment, please see our latest blog entry SCHNITZER'S ROCKBAND DEAL IS OFF.
SCHNITZER was formed in summer 2006. Still working on songs, faces and expressive finger moves, preparing for our upcoming shows. Eventually we took the decision to release a six to eight tracks EP. Recording and mixing takes place at our very own Schnitzerland.
And for those of you who'd like to share some of the lucky or discouraging moments in our bands life, we're going to write some blog entries a bit more frequently. But then again: Sometimes everything just stands still like in a hot, shimmering midsummer day.
