<p>Resistor proudly presents a night filled with synth, shoegaze &amp; post-punk
tunes.</p>
<h2>Alex Kerman (Synthgaze, SK)</h2>
<p>Multi-instrumentalist Alex Kelman is based in Slovakia and presents a mix of
psychedelic post-punk and electronic music with a 90s twist from The Soft Moon,
Death In Vegas or The Jesus And Mary Chain. The result is a mixture of
beautifully noisy guitars, catchy dance beats and rousing synthesizers, layered
with captivating vocals.</p>

<h2>De Kraters (Shoegaze, NL)</h2>
<p>De Kraters hails from Amsterdam and is an analog one man band devoted to early
80’s synthpunk. Besides weirdness, De Kraters definitely exudes an early 2000’s
Legowelt-vibe and we look forward to seeing him tearing up our soundstage. Look
out for his new album, coming in the spring of ’25!</p>

Alex Kelman, L'Orne & De Kraters

<p>In een drankovergoten Haagse kroeg, na een zwetend concert van de Amerikaanse
band Zeke, liep één van onze organisatoren de gitarist van Splinter tegen het
lijf. Al snel werd het plan gesmeed voor dit optreden in de Resistor. Dronken
plannen blijken naderhand altijd briljant. Vandaar:</p>
<h2>Splinter</h2>
<p>Splinter, behoeft met één van de oud leden van Birth of Joy in Leiden geen
enkele introductie. We snakken naar een avond van hun sleazy 60-ties en 70-ties
organ fueled rock.</p>

<h2>A plague of lighthouse keepers</h2>
<p>Haarlemse sludge-metalband met een Leidse tintje. Ze combineren Sludge met
allerlei muzikale invloeden, waaronder improv-noise, experimentele drone, en
obscure muziekinstrumenten van over de hele wereld.</p>

(NL), Thrilled (NL). Experience an evening of ethereal and dreamlike sounds,
immersing you in a mesmerizing blend of ghostly voices, beautiful noise, and

into the Psych and Shoegaze scenes.</p>
<p>September 2023 marked the release of the single "Reverie", which immediately
went on heavy rotation. A stirring, shimmering track, “Reverie” gives a glimpse
into the sonic odyssey that awaits listeners of the highly anticipated debut

Massacre in Belfast (UK) and Dublin (Ireland)</p>

<h2>Thrilled (Rotterdam, NL)</h2>
<p>The interesting chord progressions and big dynamic shifts caused by warm fuzzes
and huge drums is what 'THRILLED' is all about. Starting out at school where
all of the members met, it quickly turned into something more. Taking big
inspiration from shoegaze, but also grunge and punk and many more genres. The
warm and fuzzy tones of 'thrilled' are sure to give you all the goosebumps you
need for the day.</p>
<p>Their debut EP “Out of it” is out now!</p>
