A Bern band that's been plugging away since 1990, with songs like 'Hopeless' and 'Ashes to Ashes' in their catalog.
If you want to get a feel for Shakra, 'Hopeless' and 'Ashes to Ashes' are good places to start. They're straightforward, no-fuss hard rock songs from different points in their run.
They've been a steady presence in Swiss hard rock for over thirty years, which is a pretty long run for any band. Songs like 'Hopeless' and 'Cardiophobia' show they know how to write a solid hard rock track. They've kept at it through lineup changes and different eras without chasing trends.
They formed in Bern in 1990 and put out their first album, Power Ride, in 1995. Guitarist Thomas Muster left in 1998, but they kept releasing albums through the 2000s and 2010s, including songs like 'Acheron's Way' and 'Ashes to Ashes.'
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
