MNHM
Dutch inventive noise rockers Mannheim gives birth to grooviness from a higher heavier dimension. Mixing a sweaty punk vibe with a “black jazz” approach, the band sounds like a power clash between And So I Watch You From Afar, Shining, Zu and a free jazz driven locomotive. Whilst no strangers to jazzy, avant-garde skronk, the quartet have an almost sludgy/post rock sensibility to them as well.
Mark – Guitar, Henry – Bass, Otto – Saxophone, Roy – Drums
ALMEIDA/LOPES/SMAL TRIO
Gonçalo Almeida (Pt) – bass, Luis Lopes (Pt) – guitar, Rogier Smal (NL) – drums
