Dirty Sound Magnet was founded in Switzerland in 2010 and combines psychedelic rock, blues, and garage influences. Members Francesco Calabrese and Alex Morger honed their craft through jazz and blues instruction before incorporating experimental soundscapes. Early EPs such as Balkan Psycho (2011) established their distinct signature. Their gritty, antique tones and gear immediately drew underground notice, paving the way for larger tours and festival performances throughout Europe.
The band's 2013 debut album, Too Old to Die Young, launched them onto the European rock scene. They performed at prominent festivals such as Montreux Jazz and Rock am Ring, earning accolades for their analog-heavy sound. Songs like "Stuck in a Rut" charted regionally. Collaborations with blues and rock veterans strengthened their name and drew rising international audiences, earning them Swiss Music Awards recognition in 2015.
Dirty Sound Magnet's 2024 album, How Can a Man Be Tougher Than the World?, pushes psychedelic bounds further. They are known for their intense live performances, which include fan favourites like "Stuck in a Rut" as well as deep cuts with extended jams. Fans remark about the immersive, nostalgic vibe.
