Enigmatic Swedish post-psych band Den Der Hale are known for their boundary-pushing soundscapes. The group are currently gearing up to release their highly anticipated second album, Pastoral Light, on February 2nd 2024 via FatCat Records. This album showcases the band's ability to meld diverse creative inspirations into a seamless and experimental sonic journey, transcending genres and defying conventions.
Den Der Hale was formed in 2019 by Pontus Lindskogen (guitar, vocals), Max Bredberg (guitar), Axel Nelson (drums), Mimosa Baker (synth, vocals), and Ejner Trenter (bass). Operating from various rehearsal spaces in Malmö, the band quickly gained recognition in Scandinavia with a series of singles, followed by their debut album, Harsyra, in 2021.

Belgian industrial, post-rock collective THOT have released their fourth full-length album, ‘Delta’, through Berlin’s Pelagic Records.
A band existing in constant flux, THOT seem to thrive in the tumult of modern life and ‘Delta’, their first long form release since 2017’s breathtaking ‘FLEUVE’, is an even more ambitious musical melting pot of the people, places, spaces and times that have helped define the band to date.
Boundary-breaking by nature, THOT have been releasing a series of narratively interlinked videos alongside the singles from the record that feature some of the faces and places that helped bring ‘Delta’ into being, alongside characters and tales that have emerged from the creative process itself. Each video references elements of the others, but in defiance of the linear trajectory of time and the physical restrictions of place because THOT want their audience to define the story for themselves, to become part of it.
In some ways, ‘Delta’ already is everyone’s story; a powerful, post-rock document of hope and perseverance against all odds, a narrative that has been shaped by so many people around the world.
