Schammasch is a black metal band hailing from Basel, Switzerland. Known for their intense and atmospheric sound, they have become a prominent figure in the genre.

With influences ranging from Akhlys to Kriegsmaschine, Schammasch has carved out their own distinct style within the black metal scene.

Each album tells a story and takes listeners on a journey through different emotions and themes.

Their dedication to pushing boundaries and creating thought-provoking art sets them apart from their peers. Whether you are a fan of black metal or simply appreciate innovative music, Schammasch is an artist that should not be missed.

Irreverent and antagonistic, beautifully metaphysical yet bristling with menace, the music of Schammasch denies categorization in a way that only the most creative Black Metal can do. A contradiction in more than name alone, it combines unstable forces and unpredictable elements in strange, new ways, using the energy of opposition to feed a constant process of creation and destruction. There’s a fine line between genius and insanity. This is an album that tests the very fabric of that line.
