Swiss Pleasure, the Berlin-based trio has dropped their debut single, “Charcoal” and it’s a track that leaves a lasting impression. From the moment you hit play, you’re met with catchy female vocals that pull you in and refuse to let go. The production is beautifully done, giving the song a polished and professional feel while keeping the instrumentation creative and fun.
The song blends quick-paced drumming with amazing guitar and bass lines, creating a sound that is easy to listen to yet holds your attention. It’s the first song they ever wrote together, tells a tale of moving on after a broken fairytale, touching on themes of love and loss. It’s universal but also personal and the honesty in the lyrics makes it easy to connect with. You can take it as a reflection on a failed relationship or a broader look at life’s disappointments. Either way, the song leaves room for interpretation which is part of its charm.
We love how “Charcoal” strikes a balance between upbeat and reflective. The vocals are infectious and the overall vibe makes it a track you’ll want to have on repeat. It’s the kind of song that sneaks up on you and sticks in your mind long after it’s over. If this is just the beginning for Swiss Pleasure, we’re excited to see what they’ll bring next!
