Wolvennest (Psychedelic/Ambient/Dark/Rock // Belgium)
The best word to describe Wolvennest’s music: occult. Each live show is a transcending experience for their audience as well as their members. Far from the modern world, Wolvennest developed a following the ancient way, with strong trippy albums and solid live experiences evoking chaos, light and darkness. Their latest full-length album, “The Dark Path To The Light” (2023), makes no exception and presents a band floating between various universes, where Occult Rock, Doom and Black Metal swirl into oblivion driven by Psychedelic and Ambient manifestations. While the collective already performed at mythic festivals (Desertfest, Roadburn, Hellfest) and the very best of the occult locations (House Of The Holy, Chaos Descend, Ascension), its appetite for trippy performances is stronger than ever.
Mohama Saz (Psych Rock // Spain)
Mohama Saz is a mediterranean Psych Rock band formed by members of Melange, RIP KC, Novak and Groovin’ Santa. On their second album, “Negro es el Poder” (Humo, 2017), Mohama Saz have invented a string of songs traveling an inverted “L” geographically and musically; the “L” that goes from sub-Saharan Africa to the north, making stops in the Maghreb, in the Spain of the gypsies, turning east, towards the Mediterranean stopping in Serbia, dancing with the gypsies until reaching the lands of the Turks and from there you can see Greece, you can see Armenia, you can see Iran and if you go up higher, you can see India.
Splinter (Heavy Rock // The Netherlands)
Splinter question everything musically and throw their preferences and influences together. Danceable, sleazy, full of pop and yet still a fierce Heavy Rock album. Much is reminiscent of the late 80s, when rock flew apart in all directions, disoriented but full of ideas. Punk was over, wave was over, Metal was coming, Alternative Rock was knocking on the door… Splinter have a bit of everything. “Heavy rock ‘n’ roll” is pretty accurate. Sometimes I also refer to the punk foundations of the band, because it’s cheeky, defiant and unorthodox,” says singer Douwe Truijens.
Leber (Punk // Austria)
The liver (“Leber”) is an organ with many functions. If it no longer works properly, it can have serious consequences for the entire body. The cause of liver disease is the lack of a moral compass, which is replaced by selfishness. Typical symptoms are therefore xenophobia, traditional roles, sexism, corruption and manipulative speech. A healthy mindset and Punk can prevent liver damage. Our liver values are the result of a feminist reckoning with patriarchy and distorted power relations.
Salamirecorder (Garage Punk // Austria)
Gripping lo-fi Garage Punk from Salamirecorder with a sure knack for danceable rhythms and catchy beat melodies. If you have to describe the music, its probably like a weird slightly annoyed outsider but with a melting heart for love songs. A perfect shake between 60s Back From The Grave Garage Punk and a little breeze of early trash mixtape powerpop. Or something… Weird, loud, Rock’n’Roll noise!!!
Triptonus (Experimental Heavy Psychedelic Rock // Austria)
Two guitars, bass, drums, djembe, didgeridoo, wavedrum, darbuka and sampler. Furthermore six musicians who utilize their instruments not only to make music, but to create the soundtrack for your journey through life. That is what generally became known as Triptonus. The Vienna-based six-piece collective is known for their intense live performances and their unique combination of Psychedelic Rock, percussion grooves and Experimental Electronica.
Tired. (Hardcore Punk/Stoner Sludge/Black Metal // Austria)
A Hardcore Punk with Black Metal and Stoner Rock elements from Austria. Worn down by the relentless pressures of modern society and the intricate challenges of navigating human values, we channeled our frustrations into the creation of our Hardcore project, Tired. Drawing inspiration from a myriad of influences, both musical and personal, their sound is a raw, unfiltered reflection of the struggles and resilience that define their lives. We are all tired at some point.
Mother’s Cake (Psych Rock // Austria)
Disorder makes us feel comfortable. Lunacy is our fuel. Psychedelia is our ecstasy. We invite you to join us on an edgy journey off the beaten tracks. Six years of constant touring, writing, using – and abusing, made us who we are today. Yet we don’t like to tell our story through dull band biographies. Yes, we played a shitload of live shows all over the globe, won a couple of fancy sounding awards and shared the stage with artists we looked up to since first picking up our instruments. But this is not the story we’d like you to know. The chapters of our book are written on stage. This is the place where we absorb and release energy. Drenched in sweat and booze the border between stage and crowd becomes liquid. This is why we see ourselves as more than just any live band. People join our shows to plunge into musical rage. And there’s nowhere to hide. This is our promise to you. Come and see for yourself.
