AmRep Revisited – Gnomes Of Zurich

Gnomes of Zurich was a short-lived band that was formed out of ashes of Janitor Joe (who also recorded for Amphetamine Reptile). GoZ produced few seven-inches and one full-length entitled “33rd Degree Burns” in 1996.
Fun Facts:

  • Scott Hull in this band is not the same as Scott Hull of Agoraphobic Nosebleed/AC/Pig Destroyer fame
  • Gnomes of Zürich is a disparaging term for Swiss bankers. Swiss bankers are popularly associated with extremely secretive policies, while gnomes in fairy tales live underground, in secret, counting their riches. (Wikipedia)

–  Gnomes of Zurich is also the name of psychedelic rock band from the 60s
