Tumult

Refining their fiercely independent, politically charged vision, the Dutch collective expanded their abrasive sound far beyond standard punk rock structures on this sophomore release. 'Tumult' leans heavily into stark, angular post-punk discordance, employing clattering, mechanical rhythms and dissonant guitar textures to underscore their anti-capitalist messages. The uncompromising, dense atmosphere showcased the band's rapid evolution into a highly formidable experimental force within the European squat scene.
