The Gotthard stands majestically at 3,192 meters above sea level, and the legacy of the band GOTTHARD is just as impressive. Their signature mix of hard rock power, passion, and emotion remains potent even after more than 30 years, making their new record *Stereo Crush* seemingly effortlessly one of their finest works yet. This achievement is significant for a band with 16 number-one albums and 3.5 million units sold! With renewed vigor after the pandemic's lengthy hiatus, and their fatefully titled record *13* released just before lockdown, *Stereo Crush* cements GOTTHARD's status as highly esteemed Swiss hard rock icons. On their 14th studio record, the band combines years of experience with the enthusiasm typical of highly motivated newcomers. Guitarist Leo Leoni believes this drive is crucial for maintaining relevance. "After all these years, we could take the easy road," he muses. "But that's not how we work." Guitarist Freddy Scherer adds, "We’re extremely self-critical, sometimes to excess, but that's just the way we are." A significant strength of the current lineup—founding members Leo Leoni and Marc Lynn, along with Freddy Scherer, Nic Maeder, and new drummer Flavio Mezzodi—is their cohesive bond: a group of extremely talented and like-minded musicians united by a common dream. With three primary songwriters, GOTTHARD ensures their creative well will never run dry. "Leo, Nic, and I each bring our unique vision to GOTTHARD," says Freddy. Leo adds, "After so many years in a band, it’s essential to keep the fire burning. This is the only way to carry the great legacy of the band with dignity into the future." Bass player Marc Lynn comments, "What I love about *Stereo Crush* is its versatility. It's fresh and punchy with aggressive sounds." Nic notes, "At the same time, it’s very musical and song-oriented—it's a very contemporary GOTTHARD album." This unwavering commitment to quality and their fans didn't develop overnight. Since releasing their legendary debut *GOTTHARD* in 1992, the band has played an astounding 2,000 concerts and achieved the remarkable feat of a quadruple platinum album—a real *Homerun* for the ambassadors of Swiss rock music. "The best part about our long career is that we’re still here, and we still have something to say," says Leo. *Stereo Crush* offers much to celebrate: life, loud music, and the invisible bond that connects us. *Thunder & Lightning* is a stadium song for the ages, embodying the power to lead a major sports team to victory. *Rusty Rose* is a sensitive, intense track that many bands would sell their soul for. *Burning Bridges* reveals another facet of their strength, venturing into modern rock while staying true to their GOTTHARD roots. A novelty on this album is the renewed collaboration with Chris von Rohr, their former co-producer and fellow songwriter. After more than 20 years, they composed a song together, resulting in *Liverpool*, a vibrant, uptempo rocker with catchy melodies that linger long after the music stops. In summary, *Stereo Crush* is an album for the ages, thanks also to the unofficial sixth member of the band, longtime co-producer Charlie Bauerfeind. "We wanted to bring a sound full of oomph into 2025, and Charlie was the perfect choice," explains Leo. He and the band share a mindset; as the guitarist and co-producer explains, "Charlie is a workaholic, just like we are. We've known each other for so long now that we understand each other perfectly."
