2009 In April, the band broke up with bass-player Heiko Muuss (Psyko) after almost 10 years. Marcel did not turn out to be the right choice for the vocal job. In August/September, the torso of the band, which, after all these years, turned out to actually constitute BRUTAL GOD (Patrick Lange, Stephan Barandun, Michael Lattmann) seem to have found the man who does match the band perfectly on bass: Michael Messerli (Ex-Drifter). He cuts like a knife! After a period of almost 10 years, BRUTAL GOD has moved from Winterthur to Dietikon, where they discovered the perfect rehearsal room for all of their needs: playing and production, and a huge fridge for an endless stream of beer! 2008 In March, Gun appeared suddenly in a legendary rehearsal session and spontaneously banged the whole HELL-live-set with the two guitar-players, although there havn't been any rehearsal sessions for a long time. This made everything clear! This line-up brought back that Brutal Roll finally! Gun joined BRUTAL GOD again. For a concert in Saas Fe in April, Wild Zero drummer Marcel Langensand was consulted as vocalist. 2007 HELL was unleashed in summer. Gun was obliged to quit the band due to family reasons. Andreas Walt, vocalist on HELL and most of the preceding demo-recordings also quitted the band. During that year, BRUTAL GOD was requested by a fan to play at the Wacken Festival (Metal Hammer 10/2007)! Hopefully this will happen one day! Thank you Philipp!  2006 Recordings for HELL (BRUTAL GOD's first full length record) during summer and autumn. Producers of the album were Ralph Beier (Assburn Studio) and Stephan Barandun.   2005 BRUTAL GOD performed many shows during that year. A perfect prearrangement for the first album so called HELL. 2004 Studio work for " Days of Terror" , the 4th and last demo (recorded with Jean-Claude Brunner on drums), which appeared in autumn. In December Gun joined the band. The band began to find their groove. The line up seemed to be right to play the sound of BRUTAL GOD.  2003 Release of "Painful damned trip", another demo. Mitch joined the band at the end of that year.  2002 Release of "For all the death", a second demo. At the end of that year, the name of the band was changed into BRUTAL GOD.  2000 A year in the rehearsal room. The band began to develop. 1999 Patrick Lange founded the band "Brutal God Jahwe". The first demo, called "Masters of fire" was recorded by Patrick nearly alone.  |
