Black Diamonds – Once Upon A Time (2017)


out: 24.03.2017

Black Diamonds, formed in 2004, are a hard rock band based in the Rhine Valley in
eastern Switzerland. Musically and stylistically orientates on 80s rock music, which they
pack into an energetic stage performance.
In 2008 the group released their first, self-produced album «First Strike». It contained ten
original songs plus a cover version of Chuck Berry's classic «Rock n’ Roll Music». “First
Strike” today is out of print. A couple of songs however were completely repolished and re-
recorded and found their way to the latest album «Once Upon A Time».
Black Diamonds were asked to compose a club anthem for the local Black Thunder MC in
2011. This song is available as digital single.
2013 saw the recording and release of the second long player «Perfect Sin». It was
followed up by the extended «Perfect Swiss» tour, which brought the band through their
home country and the adjacent countries. The two videos for «We Want To Party» and
«I’ll Be OK» were shot and released during the tour. In addition another digital single, a
cover version of the Rolling Stones' classic «Jumpin’ Jack Flash», was released.
The quartet took part in the official TV spot for the Swiss railway company (SBB) in 2013.
On the set they made acquaintance with the producer of the Swiss TV serial «Pimp it or
kick it», who offered them to appear in a complete episode. The show was broadcasted in
the same year.


The new album «Once Upon A Time» was recorded in the band-owned studio and mixed
by Tobias Lindell. Dragan Tanaskovic from the Bohus Sound Studios in Gothenburg
Sweden (ABBA, Europe, In Flames, H.E.A.T., and many more) took care of the mastering.
The only exception is an additional piano version of «Vampires Of The Night», which was
completely produced by Andreas Frei (Fäaschtbänkler)
