Marathon
Marathon is a band forged from the raw intensity of the Amsterdam underground
scene. The band creates a world where sound and emotion collide. With a sound that blends the sharpness of post-punk, the atmosphere of shoegaze, and the introspection of indie, Marathon is making waves in the post-punk revival scene.
Equal Idiots
Equal Idiots is a Belgian garage rock duo consisting of Thibault Christiaensen and Pieter Bruurs. Together, the two create razor-sharp punk tracks that can head in any direction. The band guarantees high-tempo garage punk and a massive dose of untamed energy. Ready for a mosh pit XL?
KEG
KEG is a chaotic seven-piece band from Brighton that is slowly conquering the UK and Europe with their danceable post-punk and indie. These rockers are obsessed with writing great yet efficient songs. While they primarily draw influences from the world of post-punk, you can also hear hints of jazz, hardcore, hip-hop, and new wave. Their long-awaited debut, 'Fun's Over', is set for release in early 2025. Seeing KEG live is total mayhem.
Cucamaras
Indie/post-punk quartet Cucamaras from Nottingham are ready for the next step with their EP 'Soft Soap'. They draw inspiration from acts like Fontaines D.C., Shame, Parquet Courts, and Car Seat Headrest.
According to Dork Magazine, Cucamaras are "a band stamping their authority on the next wave of alternative guitar music". They have already appeared at various European festivals and played at ESNS last year.
Indoor stage in the concert hall
Badminton 2:15 PM - 3:00 PM
BARBEE 4:00 PM - 4:45 PM
Wax Head 5:45 PM - 6:30 PM
Knives 7:30 PM - 8:15 PM
Magnetic Spacemen 9:15 PM - 10:00 PM
Magnetic Spacemen
An authentic mix of gritty garage rock, surfy post-punk, and rock ‘n’ roll, wrapped in catchy songs and a high-energy show full of unpredictable madness.
On stage, the band is a constant pilot light that ignites into a spectacular blaze at the slightest provocation. Their interaction with each other and the audience creates untamed chaos, culminating in an ultimate explosion within a packed, pounding, sweaty pit.
Knives
Bristol-based Knives fuse post-punk, hardcore, rap, and noise into an exhilarating mix. With powerful basslines, gritty riffs, and the unique, venomous shouts of vocalist Jay Schottlander, they drive every crowd straight into the mosh pit.
Wax Head
Wax Head is a young band from Manchester. They love combining styles like noise rock, punk, and garage rock to create their own unique sound. The common thread in their tracks is that Wax Head pushes the audience's ears to the limit under a concrete wall of sound.
BARBEE
BARBEE plays a mix of raw grunge, punk, and boogie. Think of the energy of Nirvana, the untamed spirit of Amyl & the Sniffers, and the dark flair of Starcrawler.
Badminton
These four ruffians make music for moshing, spilling beer, and wringing out your old Ramones tee. This year, they are part of the Burger Beurs and are heading into the studio to record their 2nd EP.
