Snoutwarbler



Snoutwarbler or ‘The Snouts’ to their small collective of dedicated fans are a Hungarian Metal band from Prague. They are heavily influenced by Metallica and Iron Maiden, but incorporate Hungarian folk instruments into their songs. Their live performance utilises costume, masks and pyrotechnics and it is through their live shows that they have gained a solid fan base amongst the underground metal scene. The band have been together for 8 years with no changes to the line up. They all live together and seem to get along excellently. As secure as the band seem in themselves and their music, it is undeniable that they court controversy. There are rumours of drug use within the band that none of the members have sought to deny. They have visited England on three occasions to varied reception. At last year’s Reading Festival there were a number of objects thrown at the stage. The band have released four albums so far on a Hungarian true independent label. These albums have broken even despite a limited number of UK releases.
