Nikolaj Bass
Started as a kid with classical guitar and switched to bass in his first band because there were already two guitarists. Did not regret it. Musical influences ranging from Devin Townsend to Muse to Carpenter Brut.

SCHWERMETALL is an ambitious Cologne-based underground metal band formed in May 2016. Musically, their self-composed songs, with their catchy melodies and subtle time signature changes, can be categorized as somewhere between heavy and thrash metal. Among their recent milestones is the EP "Nur Dunkelheit" (Only Darkness), recorded at the end of 2024. The EP's lyrics are in German, but this isn't a hard and fast rule: one recent song, for example, is in French. SCHWERMETALL is looking forward to performing live in 2025 with renewed energy and a fresh setlist.

I am playing drums since 2009. I spend my first money on the black album from Metallica. When I was a kid I was listening to bands such as Queen, EAV, ABBA, Steve Miller Band, Pet Shop Boys, Genesis, Tom Petty, Metallica, Dio, Megadeth, Guns n' Roses.

Schwermetall to me, is a place where I can let off steam. Where I can try out something. When I notices it works out fine then I am starting something new straight away. I became a singer by accident. My guitar teacher asked me to sing while playing the guitar. That's how it turned out back then. Today I sing in a band, but I can't play more than 3 chords on the guitar.

Tim - Bass: 03/2017 - 11/2020

"Hey Tim, you're fancy playing in a metal band?" "No sorry. I don't play with pick." "Then play with your fingers. That's ok." "Yo, but I ain't playing constantly the E string like an idiot." "No you don't have to do so." "But it's quite fast and stressful, isn't it." "Just play by your stile and feel comfortable." - Well, that's how you wanted it. No pounding, hammering playing but Heavy Metal with a lot of groove and funk. Sorry, not sorry.
