4.0 out of 5 stars Open minded german "metal"?, June 13, 2000

With Heiland, Schweissers fourth album, the band takes a big step outside their metal-hardcore image. Most of the tracks show a wider range of styles, taking the very intense lyrics to an even higher level. All of the songs have a very good live feeling, always with an eye on the right groove (and who wants to bang his head to the same rhytm for a two hour show?) Knowing their new work "..bitte warten" (please wait) this was the needed link in between. Highlights are: Heiland, Meine Liebe ist ein Monster (featuring Apocalyptica), Friss Scheisse and Nachrechnen.

Schweisser is a German rock band who's sound changes with every album. There first one was punk then they started to play metal on Eisenkopf and Willkommen im Club, which is an absolute must for all metal fans, then they made this album which has more of a hard rock sound and finally they made Bitte Warten which is a soft album.

Anyways back to this this album, most of the songs aren't that fast but they all have a certain heavyness to them that is very easy to rock out to. One of the songs sounds a little like Led Zeppelin's Kashmir but without the violins and without that stoner feeling. Another song features Apokolyptica, which is a group of metal cello players, the cello's on the song have a nice creepy feeling to it which is pretty cool. The track Indien starts with people talking in the streets then the music comes in for about 20 seconds then it's over which is too bad because it sounded good and should've been made into a song. The vocals aren't as yelled out as much as on their earlier albums but it still sounds good.

I would recommend this cd to both fans of metal and hard rock. I would also reccomed their earlier metal cd's Eisenkopf and Willkommen im Club for all those metal heads out there.

Schweisser is originally a heavy band with hard guitars and screaming. In this cd though they seem to take a brake from all of it and have more mellow songs. I recommend the other three Schweisser cd's over this one. "Willkommen Im Club" is their hardest I think, I recommend that one first. It has really heavy guitars and heavy vocals also, I'm sure death metal fans and even hard rock fans will enjoy it. Just dont get this album, haha.
