The Young Gods are a Swiss industrial rock band formed in 1985 in Fribourg. Taking their name from one of Swans' early EPs, they have become known for their distinctive sound. The band utilizes a sampler to create the sound of electric and bass guitars, while still maintaining a live drummer and vocalist.

With their unique blend of industrial rock, The Young Gods have carved out a niche for themselves in the music world. Their innovative use of technology sets them apart from other bands in the genre. Fans can expect an electrifying live performance that showcases their talent and creativity.

If you enjoy the music of Revolting Cocks, Lard, Skinny Puppy, or Laibach, then you will definitely appreciate The Young Gods' sound. Other similar artists include Cabaret Voltaire, Einstürzende Neubauten, Download, and The Tear Garden. With such an impressive list of influences and peers, it's clear that The Young Gods are highly regarded within the industrial rock community.

switzerland's sampladelic rock trio the young gods first burst out in the late 80's, inspiring near religious fervour in fans and journalists alike. alas, back then the world wasn't ready for their hyperkinetic blend of riffing rock n roll, baroque-futurist samples and messianic vocals. following a flurry of activity the past couple of years - including the release of a very well received 'best of' compilation and a new album - 2008 sees the reissue of 5 of their classic albums at a budget price.
