Polution - Beyond Control

Pollution was founded in 1997 and has been playing in today's music scene since 2005. The band are used to playing their music in various 'rock-cellars' right up to renowned clubs such as the Rohstofflager in Zurich, the Treibhaus in Lucerne or the Transylvania in Erstfeld. Pollution have acted as support for bands such as Krokus, Sideburn and John Coghlan (formerly of Status Quo). Being placed third at the Emergenza Band contest '06 in Zurich currently ranks among the band's greatest success story. While originally having focused on cover-versions of bands like AC/DC, Metallica and Motörhead, the band has started to continually include more and more of their own songs into their repertoire. They have developed a style based on supportive melodies and hard guitar riffs. This music style has gained large approval amongst listeners and has gained them a following beyond the local area for their outstanding instrumental communication on stage. In spring 2007, Pollution took the chance and ventured into producing a CD at the New Sound Studio. The debut CD "Overheated" (ESM172) by Pollution really made people listen with it's quirky approach to rock music. "Overheated" was full of great catchy songs with an energetic sound. It's now 2012 and Pollution are eager to unleash their new recording on us, and what a cracker it is. Razor edged riffs and aggressive hooks are abound, they certainly know how to hit the right notes, and with a more polished sound than before they smack of Nickelback in places. However, they still retain that hard edged sound that fans of Gotthard, Krokus and AC/DC will love. What we have here is 12 tracks of pure entertaining rock music and it can only attract more fans to their ever growing popularity.
