Xiu Xiu (USA) – Eraserhead set
Xiu Xiu are among the boldest and most uncompromising experimental bands of the past two decades. For this special performance, they present a unique concert inspired by David Lynch’s cult classic Eraserhead. Using homemade instruments, field recordings, modular synths, voice, and unsettling visuals, they create a dark and immersive work that is both tribute and new artistic creation. Music as nightmare and dream, epitaph and celebration of one of cinema’s greatest masterpieces.
⇀
Trepaneringsritualen (SWE)
Since 2008, Trepaneringsritualen has become synonymous with ritual industrial and death ambient. Mixing pounding rhythms, occult atmospheres, and bleak drones, the project delivers live “rituals” that feel less like concerts and more like ceremonies. Dark, hypnotic, and terrifyingly immersive – a pagan invocation at the end of civilization.
⇀
Zero Kama (AT)
Zero Kama is one of the most legendary names in industrial history, infamous for recording an album entirely with instruments made of human bones in the 1980s. After decades of silence, founder Zoe DeWitt has resurrected the project, reworking original recordings through modular synthesis into technoid, ritual soundscapes. A powerful convergence of the past and present, occult symbolism, and sonic experimentation.
⇀
Ordo Rosarius Equilibrio (SWE)
Apocalyptic pop at its most provocative. Since the 1990s, Tomas Pettersson and Rose-Marie Larsen have created a world of beauty and decadence, balancing themes of sex and war, love and destruction, tenderness and brutality. Their music is theatrical, philosophical, and sensual – a cult project that continues to fascinate with its unique blend of provocation and elegance.
⇀
Troum (GER)
The German duo TROUM create soundscapes like endless dreams – deep drones and ambient layers built from guitars, accordion, harmonicas, and gongs, without the use of samplers or computers. Their concerts are journeys into the subconscious, evoking archetypal imagery and liminal states between sleep and wakefulness. Hypnotic, ritualistic, and profoundly immersive.
⇀
Inade (GER)
Active since the early 1990s, Inade are pioneers of European dark ambient. Their work, often described as “sonic archaeology,” explores mythology, cosmology, and occult dimensions through monumental drones, ghostly voices, and ritual atmospheres. Each performance is a descent into the unknown – both unsettling and transcendent, a contact with the otherworldly.
⇀
African Imperial Wizard (Angola)
African Imperial Wizard was born in the aftermath of a time marked by fracture and tension. The producers behind the project quickly forged a sonic universe where ancestral rhythms collide with raw electronic pulses, shaped like a martial symphony.
Their music channels an inner struggle, a collective memory scarred by oppression and dispossession, but also the creative rage of a youth in free fall, determined to reclaim its voice. African Imperial Wizard embodies the raw expression of a discomfort inherited across generations, and the momentum of a fragmented cultural identity that refuses to fade away.
⇀
Frett (PL)
The project of Maciej Frett (Job Karma, 7JK, Wrocław Industrial Festival) together with Anna Frett. Their sound merges industrial, IDM, tribal rhythms, and dark electronics, moving between cinematic passages and dancefloor intensity. FRETT delivers a modern, uncompromising vision of industrial music – raw, powerful, and sharply crafted.
⇀
Paregorik (CZ)
A Czech noise project operating on the threshold between brutal sonic aggression and ritual introspection. Walls of harsh noise are contrasted with silence and minimal textures, creating performances that are physically overwhelming yet deeply hypnotic. A confrontation with the very essence of sound.
⇀
Blind Ruler Cursed Land (CZ)
The Prague-based project combines neofolk, ambient, and oriental influences into esoteric and symbolic soundscapes. Blind Ruler Cursed Land tells stories of solitude, death, heroism, and spiritual redemption – performed with traditional instruments such as tampura, dulcimer, and lute. A ritualistic and evocative live experience rooted in myth and archetype.
