ALKERDEEL

What do you do when the music you want to hear is nowhere to be found? You just play it yourself. That was Alkerdeel's starting point 18 years ago: fusing the icy sound of Norwegian Darkthrone with the heavy doom sound of American Burning Witch.

If the gentlemen had any ambition at all, it did not extend beyond their garage door. Five records and several splits via Consouling Sounds and Babylon Doom Cult Records later, Alkerdeel has become an unstoppable force. Their sound has evolved into a dirty mix of all the extreme that can be found in the metal genre. With success: in 2023 they got to close the Dome Hall of the renowned Roadburn festival, and a couple of months later, they surpassed the creaking glaciers at the kvlter than kvlt House of the Holy festival in the Austrian mountains. At the moment we’re writing a new album, live concerts are sparse. Their credo: only live is real - only first take is real.

KLUDDE

Kludde was formed in 2001, rooted in the second wave of Black Metal and inspired by local folklore. Taking its name from a demonic shapeshifter haunting riverbanks at night, the band quickly gained underground attention with the 2002 demo “Langs Scheld- en Denderland” and the 2004 split release “De Verdoken Waarheid”. Early shows became notorious for their raw, chaotic and confrontational energy.

With the debut full-length “In den Vergetelheid” (2008), Kludde expanded their sound with darker atmospheres and doom influences, sharing stages with acts like My Dying Bride, Amon Amarth, Shining and Asphyx. After a period of silence, the band returned stronger with “In de Kwelm” (2019), combining the aggression of the early years with more refined songwriting.

Their third album “De Horla” (2023) pushed further into atmospheric territory while remaining fierce and uncompromising. Released together with an illustrated artbook and animated visuals by artist Wesley Dewanckel, “De Horla” became a landmark in the band’s storytelling and live presence, with performances at Alcatraz Festival, Ieper Hardcore Fest and more.

In 2024 Kludde joined forces with A Thousand Sufferings for the conceptual split “Het Pact”, telling the haunting story of the De Vis family from Aalst. With deep roots, a strong identity and a reputation for intense live shows, Kludde continues to carve its own path in the Black Metal underground.

BLODZALLOG

Blodzallog exists to emphasise the horrors of physicality and transience through repetitive hammering and synthesised doom.

Spawned from a singular interpretation of black/death metal, the band has been evolving their brand of low end tremolo hell over the past few years.

With currently only a 2-song demo out, there's surely much more to come...!

APOVRASMA

Founded by a Belgian musician who goes by the name of Scum, APOVRASMA spoils the listener with a wide sonic spectrum, ranging from Greek-inspired black metal to immersive soundscapes - at times hypnotic and psychedelic, at others blisteringly intense and unrelenting.

APOVRASMA does not perform live a lot but we've seen them, and you don't want to miss this! Scum is joined by guest musicians from ALKERDEEL, Bacht'n de Vulle Moane, and Matavitatau, promising a performance as boundary-pushing as it is immersive.

ALKERDEEL
Alkerdeel (b) spits out droney black doom metal with blown out practice space production, grinding guitars, blasting distorted drums, filthy super sick vocals, with bursts of sludge and stretches of loping minimal crunch, sort of mathy, all very very heavy, doomy and even psychedelic. Essential for fans of Darkthrone, Burning Witch, Winter, Blut aus Nord, Beherit and Eyehategod … as well as other practitioners of grim buzz and noise.

Originally raised as a three piece garage jam project (only guitar, drum and voice, no bass) in 2007, to satisfy a hunger for filthy and lousy music. All sessions were partly improvised and recorded on a tapedeck. Blesken, of Sylvester Anfang fame, got his hands on one of the recordings, recognized its rough value, baptised the bastard as 'Luizig' (lousy) and released the tape on a ridiculously yet logic amount of 66 tapes through his label, Funeral Folk. Ofcourse it sold out in no time and even before the thought of a re-release, Al from Scotland's At War With False Noise offered to give 'Luizig' a proper cd-release through his label. A repress followed shortly after due to increasing demand. By the time the band started to play live sporadically and on the brink of writing new songs, long time friend QW (Serpencult, Thee Plague Of Gentlemen) joined on bass. Not only his psychedelic drones elevated the music to untrodden fields of intoxication, the subterranean blasts from his speakers chopped many spectator's head clean off. To this day, stages are crushed from the UK or The Netherlands over Germany and Czech Republic. So far, Alkerdeel had the honor sharing stages with a.o. Wolves in The Throne Room, Primordial, Amenra, Urfaust, Jex Thoth, Aluk Todolo, Lugubrum, Nihil, Monarch! ...

After the recording of 'The Bollaf!', an EP released by Universal Tongue which even contained an Ildjarn medley, Blesken from S.A. entered again. Famous for his analog and first take obsession, he captured the erupting volcano that is Alkerdeel live to tape, giving birth to 'The Speenzalvinge', the actual debut album which got Roadburn's 'Album of the day' approval stamp. The album opened doors to play at (in)famous festivals such as Roadburn, Desertfest, Incubate, Throne Fest, Aurora Infernalis, Ieperfest ... The difference between these different festivals marks Alkerdeel's schizophrenic and disturbing nature: whether to play a doom, indie or black metal audience, souls are captivated regardless.

2012 gave birth to 'Morinde', the new full-album released by Consouling Sounds (a.o. Amen Ra, Aderlating, Aidan Baker) from Ghent, the band's homeground. Four tracks fearlessly walking the valley of black, doom, sludge and even war metal. Recorded live, without overdubs, in one night with an honest mastering by Tom Kvalsvoll from Strype Audio (a.o. Dodheimsgard, 3th and the Mortal, Aura Noir, Darkthrone …), 'Morinde' confirms Alkerdeel's punk attitude to making music: what you hear is what you get!

Early 2013 saw the release of a split album (vinyl only) with A Den Of Robbers, sludge-crust friends from Ghent, titled 'CM Kamp 1996', featuring three unreleased tracks dating back from the 'Luizig' sessions. Recorded with a dictaphone and raw as fuck!

2014 offered two split albums, sort of. Firstly, 'Dyodyo Asema', a 19-minute long bastard, composed by Alkerdeel and Gnaw Their Tongues with the intention of celebrating the fifth anniversary of Consouling Sounds. Mind, it's not a split release, but a collaboration where both parties worked on one gloomy-drone-black-sludge-monolith of a song. Secondly, the split with Nihill - called 'The Abyss Stares Back' on Hypertension Records, as an ouverture to the new full lenght 'Lede', released in 2016 (Consouling Sounds). Gone are most sludge influences, old-school influences and almost kraut-like psychedelics are pushed to the front. More Winter and Von, less Neurosis or Burzum.

Only live is real!
