Explore: Tramhaus + sinks

Tramhaus
is the daring postpunk sensation from the restless and ever-innovative city of Rotterdam. In the span of its relatively short existence, Tramhaus has managed to make a name far beyond the borders of their hometown. Marked by their joyous and energetic experience, the band has proven to be able to convey this message both in live and recorded settings. The music of Tramhaus feels like a soundtrack to a vivacious, mysterious, and dangerous story. There is no room to lean back as the band takes you with them in a drag race full of emotions and euphoria driven by streamlined, fiery songs mixed with fragile and abstract tones. This whole spectacle is fueled by the near-symbiotic relationship between the five band members.

sinks
The explosive trio sinks wraps their expressive music in the influences of 90s post-punk, anti-capitalist attitudes, and authentic poetics, all enveloped in a biting layer of noise. The result is an intense, interactive sonic experience that at times approaches the boundaries of listenability. Noise rock in the hands of sinks is characterized by energetic concerts, where the notoriously tight rhythm section is complemented by minimalist yet loud guitar playing and expressive vocals. A striking element of sinks’ live performances is the authenticity of their expression.
