A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers [Spiritual Sludge / Metal / Noise]Whilst the name ‘A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers’ refers to multiple different artworks, including the song by Vandergraaf Generator of the same name and the Robert Eggers 2019 film, the Haarlem based metal band has developed a style that is uniquely their own. It’s perhaps because the struggle and isolation of the Lighthouse Keeper became so much more vivid to all of us, during the extended periods of isolation during the Covid-19 Pandemic. Using Sludge, Post and Doom-Metal as a vehicle for free artistic, political and personal expression, the quartet is currently working on their debut both in the studio and on stage.
Musically, the Lighthouse Keepers sound like a disturbed lovechild between OM, Sumac, Swans, Miles Davis and Pandit Pran Naath. They combine lengthy improvisations with ear shattering explosions of intensity. Lyrically, their songs deal mostly with death, personal struggle, religion and political philosophy, hence using their desperate shrieks, earsplitting cymbals, noisy guitarpalette and thumbing repetitive basspaterns to create a dialectical counterpoint to contemporary pop culture. It’s the punk rock of a failed generation, drowning in anger and filth yet too tired to organize a revolution. Still, The Lighthouse Keepers also manage to find small moments of undeniable beauty and fragility as so to perhaps spark a glimmer of hope in a world torn by pandemics, war and systemic oppression.

Sjors van der Mark [ Noise / Drone / Doom]
is in het dagelijks leven een veelgevraagd gitarist in de hedendaags gecomponeerde/klassieke muziek, met vaste posities in Orkest de Ereprijs en Herz Ensemble.
Naast het spelen van andermans noten laat hij van zichzelf horen met werk dat de duistere kant van de muziek niet schuwt. Zijn solo-album /-|00” is een intense trip langs noise, drone en ambient.
Met zijn band Redakteure speelt hij metalbewerkingen van moderne orkestwerken. Voor deze gelegenheid schrijft hij een nieuw werk. Verwacht een gruizige mix van noise, drone en doom.

Maggie [Experimental, DIY, Noise]
Maggie Khorrami is a Netherlands-based experimental noise musician, sound artist, and
sound engineer. Her work spans sound and light installations, collaborative audiovisual
projects, and live electro-acoustic performances.
Working within the realms of industrial and noise-based sound, she creates raw, textured
sonic environments. Her compositions weave together electronics, voice, and a custom-
built electronic violin, resulting in emotionally charged and structurally dense pieces. Her
practice is informed by themes of social unrest, political tension, and the complexities of
human connection.
Through her ongoing exploration of experimental techniques and innovative tools, Maggie
pushes the boundaries of traditional violin performance. By merging unconventional
approaches with advanced technology, she navigates the chaos and intricacy of the modern
world—using sound as a space for both personal reflection and collective resonance.
