Bio:
SIDEBURN in 1997 were founded on the ashes of Swiss Heavy Metal band GENOCIDE (which were active between 1986-1997) by vocalist Roland Pierrehumbert and rhythm guitarist Fred Gudit.“Sell Your Soul (For Rock ‘n’ Roll)” (1997), the self-proclaimed "rebaptism" as SIDEBURN saw the band's redirected approach, which resulted in this bare-knuckled album. SIDEBURN seemingly made no apologies for the full-scale change from Heavy Metal to riff orientated Hard Rock. The name "Sideburn," in fact, is also admittedly rooted in rock tradition. Relentless gigging, including a pinnacle supporting slot for KISS at Hallenstadion in Zurich and a couple of line-up changes followed.Following a brief hiatus where the realigned band tightened the screws a few turns, Sideburn resurfaced in 2001 with “Crocodile” and later with “Gasoline” in 2004. Swiss production guru Juerg Naegeli also re-enlisted for both discs. These releases continued to exhibit the band's progressive dedication to the favored Aussie sound.Over this period, the band's reputation as a tight, dedicated outfit both in the studio and live led to an impressive list of supporting tour engagements. Sideburn opened for legends Def Leppard, Motorhead, Dio, Ted Nugent, Thin Lizzy, Krokus and Doro... and even Meat Loaf.2006 marked the 20th anniversary of the SIDEBURN/GENOCIDE project. The band celebrated the milestone with the career spanning anthology titled “Archives” before the most recent album “Cherry Red” was released in 2008. The song “Six Feet Under” was featured in the last season of the famous show “24” with Kiefer Sutherland. In 2010, SIDEBURN worked on their new release with multi-platinum producer Beau Hill (over 50 millions album sold Ratt, Gary Moore, Winger, Twisted Sister), as co-producer and mixer. Since September 2010, the fans can challenge themselves by playing the song “Cherry Red” on Xbox 360’s music game “Rockband 3”.The new album “Jail” will be released on the 25th of February 2011 by Metal Heaven in Europe (except Switzerland) & Japan.
Album:
Swiss hard rockers SIDEBURN are releasing ‘‘Loaded – The Best Of”, a double disc including their best hits, new songs, fresh re-recordings with guests, rarities, and live recordings.Sideburn has been rocking for more than quarter of a century, 28 years to be exact, always led by founding members frontman Roland Pierrehumbert and drummer Lionel Blanc delivery their brand of timeless riff-driven rock n’ roll. They toured and supported the likes of KISS, Dio, Motorhead, Def Leppard, Ted Nugent, Krokus, Gotthard, Thin Lizzy, just to name a few.The band’s desire to create a ‘best of’ album began to mature in late 2022. But not to just compile a selection of tracks or to fill the gap between albums: Sideburn has decided to do things in a big way, to please their fans. So there’s new music, rare tracks, and live stuff, where the band excels.These are kick ass, testosterone-fueled firebrands from Sideburn’s albums Sell Your Soul for Rock ‘n’ Roll, Crocodile, Gasoline, Cherry Red, Jail, Electrify, #Eight and Fired up. We have two guest stars with very well-known names and members of Gotthard: guitarist Leo Leoni who plays on ”Hell on Wheels” and singer Nic Maeder on the title “Gangster Lover 2023”.All their classics are present. Including Six Feet Under, which shimmered under the Hollywood stars on the soundtrack to the blockbuster Wolverine (starring Australian actor Hugh Jackman). There’s also the song Knockin’ at the Wrong Door (featured in the trailer for Hit and Run).Good time hard rockin’ stuff.
