The Swamp Terrorists are a Swiss electro-industrial music group that was started in the late 1980s by synthesizer programmer STR, (of Band Berne Crematoire, Nacht-Raum, and Strangler of the Swamp fame) and vocalist Ane Hebeisen (aka Ane H), (formerly of Tierstein), who met at a Strangler/Tierstein show. Their music is harsh pounding electro mixed with grinding metal guitar riffs (which are usually sampled from other heavy metal bands), and produces a sound similar to KMFDM and White Zombie.

  • The Swamp Terrorists are a Swiss electro-industrial music group that was started in the late 1980s by synthesizer programmer STR, (of Band Berne Crematoire, Nacht-Raum, and Strangler of the Swamp fame) and vocalist Ane Hebeisen (aka Ane H), (formerly of Tierstein), who met at a Strangler/Tierstein show. Their music is harsh pounding electro mixed with grinding metal guitar riffs (which are usually sampled from other heavy metal bands), and produces a sound similar to KMFDM and White Zombie. The original line-up consisted of STR, Ane H, and guitarist Francis H, who left after the release of their first EP, He is Guilty. Ane and STR recorded their first album, Grim-Stroke-Disease together, releasing it on the Machinery/Noise label in 1990. About a year later, it was followed by Grow-Speed Injection. Shortly after the 1994 album Combat Shock, Swamp Terrorists added several members for their live show: bassist Anrej A, guitarist Spring and drummer Piet Hertig. However, STR left the band immediately following the 1995 release Killer, and began to work with the guitar-heavy Hellsau. The other four members of the band, as well as STR's live replacement ND, have since released a live album, Five in Japan and 2 EPs: Wreck in 1997, and Rare & Unreleased in 1999, on Metropolis Records.
  • Swamp Terrorists sind eine in Bern ansässige Schweizer Electro-Industrial-Band die in den späten 1980er Jahren gegründet wurde. Die Band bestand zuerst aus STR (Programming), Ane H (Gesang) und Francis H (Gitarre), der die Band aber 1989 wieder verliess. Das Markenzeichen der Band sind harte Elektro-Beats gemixt mit (meistens gesampleten) Gitarrenriffs. Nach der Veröffentlichung des Albums „Combat Shock“ im Jahr 1994, wurde die Band, vor allem hinsichtlich der kommenden Liveauftritte, durch Bassist Andrej A, Gitarrist Spring und Schlagzeuger Piet Hertig ergänzt. 1995 verliess Gründungsmitglied STR die Band und wurde für die Liveauftritte durch ND ersetzt. Unter anderem konnte die Band erfolgreiche Auftritte in Japan verbuchen, daraus entstand die Live-EP "Five in Japan", welche 1997 veröffentlicht wurde. Nach einer abschliessenden „Rare & Unreleased“ Compilation wurde es gegen Ende des Jahrtausends ruhig um die Band und sie gilt seit 1999 offiziell als aufgelöst.
