Rude
Rude's first live act occured in October 97. In his hometown of Lausanne ( Switzerland
) the band first developed a rather
heavy metal sound backed by sampler machines.The arrival of a new drummer in
February 98 triggered a radical reorientation
of the band towards a music with more clout and power.Sampler machines were
left behind and a new repertoire took shape.
The still young band acquired a second guitarist in April 98 in order to reinforce
the cohesion of its sound.
After having completed their line-up, Rude's musicians began a recording session
during the summer of 98.
A four tracks CD presenting the results of Rude's studio work comes out in November
98 on Division Records.
Rude is determined to produce a tough and square sound in the like of actual
hardcore/metal scene.
Sharpe edged riffs, percussive rythms and roaring lyrics are the embodiment
od Rude's sound.
Texts are written and flung at people in English. They speak about themes dear
to Rude : questionnings,
life experiences, emotions or tormented and violent feeling which can haunt
anybody's mind.
Today, Rude has split up but they leave a masterpiece of their golden age !
