Black Reuss is the river of life of a man who describes the changes and chapters he has experienced through music. Life is like a river, always in motion, mostly downhill. The name comes from the Reuss, a Swiss river that rises in the Gotthard massif in the middle of Switzerland, where Black Reuss lived during the writing of Metamorphosis.

Stylistically, Black Reuss is at home in doomy, gothic heavy metal with a touch of melancholy and a certain heaviness, the heaviness that has accompanied Black Reuss in some chapters of his life. And as in the river that carries more and more water, the experiences and knowledge that Black Reuss gathers on his way become more and more, until one day the light goes out and disappears in the eternal sea.

Black Reuss will take the audience on this journey on the raven waters of the river of life in 4 chapters, Metamorphosis, Journey, Arrival and Death.

On 1st of December 2023, released the album “Arrival”. In this album is included the single “Loner”.

“The first stage of life is about the transformation, the transformation of a man who is between worlds and nowhere really at home. Struggles with himself and with the world. Will Black Reuss make the journey? What will he encounter in his transformation, what will he take with him and what not?”

There is one person behind Black Reuss. Music, compositions, production, lyrics everything is from one pen and as close to the person behind Black Reuss as it can be. “All is one, all seems to be in balance, all is one, the journey can begin now”
