Mayhem

Fri 6 Feb
Black metal
The Norwegian black metal band Mayhem celebrated their long and, to say the least, eventful career last year with the '40 years of Mayhem' tour.

Fri 6 Feb
Electro, Post punk
+ Morwan + Raderkraft
The Serfs, with roots among the silos of southwestern Ohio, are a dark and industrial band of dancefloor artists. They're a band of deranged troubadours whose sound and musical ideology seem to be a logical extension of their immediate surroundings: hard-wired and hypnotic synthesized melodies propelled by a churning, scraping percussion with metallic tones.

Punk, Rockabilly
LIVE: THE FIENDS OF DOPE ISLAND
n a chemical-soaked city below sea level, something nasty’s bubbling to the surface. Teenage werewolves can’t hardly stand it. Every heartbeat turns the crowd into a swarm of human flies. From the graveyard of rock ’n’ roll, rising with a snarl and a wiggle, come The Fiends of Dope Island — howling the mutant gospel of The Cramps. A toxic brew of punk and rockabilly, born for the freaks, creeps, and creatures who never fit in.

Bass Drum of Death
Paradiso
Mon 9 Feb
Garage-punk
Bass Drum of Death returns to basics. Their sixth album, "SIX," sounds like an ode to the early years: raw, rattling, and straight out of the garage. Frontman John Barrett wrote and recorded the music with guitarist Jim Barrett and drummer Ian Kirkpatrick in his Nashville home studio, with Jeremy Ferguson (Cage the Elephant, White Reaper) at the controls, the icing on the musical cake. The result is a powerful mix of fuzz, energy, and southern swagger.

Sat 14 Feb
Shoegaze, Lo-fi
+ Bragolin, Roscoe Roscoe
The British four-piece band bdrmm (pronounced 'bedroom') released their debut album 'Bedroom' in 2020 which is reminiscent of shoegaze from the nineties and lo-fi noise bands. After releasing their debut it went fast and it was not long before the band signed with Sonic Cathedral, a label known as a music paradise for noise. On the newest album 'Microtonic' it is immediately clear that the band has taken new directions, that this is the most mature and complete work of the band so far.
