Greetings Jawbreakers!
Amethyst is the new underground sensation taking the world by storm. With 500 tapes completely sold out in record time and being booked for legendary festivals such as Muskelrock, Keep It True Rising and Chaos Descends, Amethyst seems to be the band every heavy rocker out there is listening to. Therefore we are extremely happy to finally be able to present the vinyl edition of their debut EP Rock Knights, as well as a third batch of tapes!
|
The band hails from Switzerland and was formed in 2020 out of the ashes of the previous band Midas Touch. Their goal is to play Heavy Metal, as it was intended by the noble elders, straight from the hearts of the band members to pierce those of the listeners. The musical inspiration comes not from a specific band in particular, but rather from the sound in general of the era between 1979 and 1981, and the spirit of said time.

|
Rock Knights is Amethyst‘s debut 4-song EP, out on vinyl and cassette through Jawbreaker Records.
