On the stage of the legendary Bar Loose, you’ll experience politically outspoken Irish avant-garde punk artist Meryl Streek, as well as HIDE, an electronic duo from Chicago known for crafting dark, extremely heavy sample-based compositions from their own field recordings. HIDE’s music is renowned for its relentless rawness and intensity.
The club series will also showcase both rising newcomers and established names – delivering bold, boundary-pushing musical experiences.

CATS OF TRANSNISTRIA
Cats of Transnistria’s music can be prescribed as an absolutely sweet dose of anesthetic formula through your veins, leading you to a state of blissful comfort.
Their whirpool of strings, singing and synths are nodding towards 90’s vital elements of dream pop and shoegaze while still creating something brand new, fateful and significant to plummet in from your head to toe with their ’IV’ record that was released on March 2025.

HAAPOJA
Haapoja is the hidden treasure of Finnish metal scene that deserves much more recognition with their truly peculiar style that cannot be compared to anything else that has been made on this century around our perishable globe. Their frenzied and rapid aggressions are driving you to total insanity while you try to grab on the remains the reality around you, just to see it melts unrecognizable with every tormenting pulse.

FRIGID WINTER
Abysmal call from the darkness with decaying frost. Raw, savage and evil Helsinki primitive black metal trio called Frigid Winter are the bludgeoning untamed storm on northern tundra that many try to challenge with not so bright success, as their corpses are left to be buried in the cold drift while they pray for mercy in their last languish.

SOPHIA DJEBEL ROSE (FR)
Sophia Djebel Rose creates beautiful, romantic folk music that is a rare treat to experience. Her music gathers the clouds together on the dim skies where darkness falls slowly as you follow here voice into the twilight. Stripped, intimate and simple acoustic arrangements are the key elements to accompany Sophia’s soothing and mezmerising airy vocals. Saturated in gloom her voice shall fill the halls.

GENERATION DECLINE (US)
Thrashy, grinding hardcore band Generation Decline brings their rapid energy to the stage with chugging guitars, exploding drums and furious vocals that is 100% banger-proof mosh-pit starters. The band attacks with bare-knuckles against everyone and everything that is on their way and blasts ruthlessly about harsh realities that impacts our daily lives.
Wauuuuuu! 🤩 And wait there! One more to come!

JESU (UK)
Gloomy, atmospheric, personal and intense project of Justin K. Broadrick, Jesu blends shoegaze, post-rock and doom metal till perfection, and that’s why Jesu has truly deserved all the praise it has gained through the years of existence and so much more. Emotionally charged songs which are balancing between soft and heavy, darkness and light, will mesmerize your psyche with their cruel bloom.
So thrilled and more to come in a next minute! 🤩
