RONKER is not the first state-of-the-art speednoise band to ever exist, but they are the first ones to coin the term. Formed in 2020 in the heart of the swamplands of Belgium the band comes naturally weathered and screaming bloody murder. RONKER’s music can be described as a mix between Danzig-era Misfits and Helmet, equally influenced by the earliest of hardcore-punk and 90?s alternative guitar music.
Since its inception RONKER can mainly be found on the road. Carving out an audience in the most old-school fashion: by playing live. Always visceral, urgent and frantic, RONKER is prime example of being staunchly committed to rock and roll athleticism. Throwing shapes and taking names.
Their debut album "Fear Is a Funny Thing, Now Smile Like a Big Boy" was met with overwhelmingly positive reactions, with journalists praising the band?s cross-over antics, also applauding RONKER for testing the limits of standard tuned guitars whilst retaining a hooky nature. The band was complimented on injecting a much needed boost of speed into the Belgian music scene. The album also meant the stepping stone for the band?s first international touring milestones: bringing them to festivals like Hellfest, 2000Trees, Pukkelpop and Jera On Air.
On sophomore album -of which title is yet to be revealed- RONKER sounds more ambitious than ever. A concept-album about coping mechanisms and the antics of a rock&roll-lifestyle. The band is presenting a more layered and sophisticated sound than its predecessor; the result is a record that is equally shaped by the likes of David Bowie and the Spiders from Mars as it is by Refused or Slayer. Still as aggressive as before, but with a more old-school approach to songwriting with big choruses and even bigger riffage.
Although RONKER likes to profile themselves as pleasant rascals with big hearts full of love, they are not really known for being the happiest kids in school. Now the time has come to bring that anger to the stages again and burn down the expectations with a new batch of big speed-noise songs. Always suffering, forever nervous.
Respect the hustle. Unleash the dogs of war. The RONK is coming.
Supercapra
Med base i København er Supercapra mere end bare et band; det er en naturkraft. De kombinerer den rå intensitet fra 90’ernes grunge med den detaljerede kunstneriske tilgang fra 70’ernes progressive rock, og leverer en lyd, der er lige så dristig, som den er dragende. Deres debutalbum lover at transportere lytteren til et sonisk univers drevet af tårnhøje guitarriffs, tordnende trommeslag og harmonier, der udstråler ambition og kraft. Noter fra Alice In Chains, The Mars Volta & Fight Club!
I hjertet af Supercapra findes en umiskendelig energi – lige dele rå følelse og teknisk mesterskab. Med en scenetilstedeværelse, der kræver opmærksomhed, og en lyd, der går dybt i kroppen, legemliggør bandet en ånd af håb, kreativitet og trods. Supercapra er her for at minde dig om, at selv i udfordrende tider kan musik være en transformerende flugt.
