Crack Cloud (CA) - file under: No Wave, Art-Punk, Post-Punk | for fans of: Squid, Talking Heads, La Femme, Black Midi
In July something very special is happening in Vienna - the seven-piece band Crack Cloud from Vancouver is honouring the city with their first ever live performance in Austria. Stemming from a large mixed-media collective, the band similarly makes a somewhat mixed-genre music. Sometimes reminding you of Squid with their multi-instrumental ferocity, vocal harmonies and a groove that is irresistible, they can also take you to the colourful, art-punky realms as La Femme or Talking Heads do. Yet, comparisons only help so much as Crack Cloud plays a unique blend of music that just needs to be experienced live. While you're waiting for that, get your tickets and listen to their live session and incredible music videos (they're a mixed-media collective after all):

Our dear friends of Nature Swim unfortunately had to cancel their performance due to Covid (get well soon!) - Atom Womb are ready to jump right in!
Atom Womb (AT) - file under: Psych-Punk, Stoner/Garage, Fuzz | for fans of: Thee Oh Sees, Ty Segall, King Gizzard, you know what we're talking about
Atom Womb are Vienna's #1 Fuzz Warriors and have proven a gazillion times that they are ready to destroy any venue they're invited to (metaphorically, don't worry). Catchy guitar melodies, fuzzy riffs, heavy, stomping bass and a driving drum rhythm - now supported by Max Rott on Synths. Their album will be released later this year and it'll kick ass. Thanks for jumping in!
Listen to their song "Psycho" here: https://bit.ly/37d7b4s

Laundromat Chicks (AT) - file under: Jangle-Pop, Indie, Post-Punk
Laundromat Chicks are an escapist guitar pop 4 piece from Lower Austria. Tackling themes you could find in a Wim Wenders movie through hook-heavy tunes with jangling guitar melodies, minimalist drums and zoned-out vocals. And now that they are with the great Siluh Records, we truly cannot wait what's coming next!
