Celtic Frost are the only other Swiss metal band I can name, so that makes sense. I listened to all 5 albums last night, and I thought each one was better than the one before it. I'd seen the name before but for some reason the name "Coroner" made me assume they were doom metal, which I'm not that big on. I'm glad I gave them a shot.
I haven't, but I did just listen to the Saint Vitus album Born Too Late. I can definitely appreciate it, but I can't see myself adding it to my playlist any time soon.
I never heard them before, lovin' that first song. According to Wikipedia, they were a big influence on Ghost, which is not surprising considering the similarities between The Night of the Witch and Ghost's Stand By Him, mainly the drum opening and the chorus.
You should. I feel like if I heard them 10 years ago I probably would have thought they were too poppy, but I think I have matured a bit since then. Their music is beautiful. I think they may be my favorite new metal band.
