Erupting from Switzerland’s fertile music scene, Coilguns is a four piece whose sonorous alchemy of punk and noise-rock has blazed through Europe's underground. With Jona Nido on guitar, Louis Jucker's visceral vocals, Kevin Galland’s moog and bass and Luc Hess' thunderous drums, they've carved a niche that resonates with fans of IDLES, The Mars Volta and Converge. Their sonic assault, often captured in blistering live sessions, reverberates in their most streamed singles, where relentless energy meets melodic ferocity. The impact of their most-listened-to album echoes the ethos of a band unafraid to push boundaries while delivering raw, unfiltered experiences.
Coilguns' reputation for incendiary live performances has landed them on stages alongside heavyweights like Baroness and Mastodon, leaving an indelible mark on festivals such as Hellfest and Paléo Festival. Their shows at Greenfield and on the main stage of Motocultor Festivals showcased their explosive stage presence and established them as torchbearers of modern punk.
Behind the scenes, they're a force of nature. Nido's Humus Records champions the Swiss music landscape, fostering a vibrant community that looks to Coilguns as pioneers.
Filed under Punk, Noise-Rock, Hardcore, Coilguns is a juggernaut of sound and fury.
