On day 9, the stage gets taken over by the well known Dark Entries; expect wave, post punk and everything inbetween.
Stakbabber (NL)
Stakbabber, the cult band centered around Amsterdam frontman Mick Ness, enchants audiences with an unmistakable, nocturnal post-punk sound. They cleverly weave compelling new wave together with heavy basslines, organic drums, and a unique 80s feel. With their 2025 third masterpiece 111, they guarantee razor-sharp guitars, deep grooves, and a dark, highly danceable atmosphere.
Korinthians (BE)
The Ghent-based quartet Korinthians surprises live with a rock-solid cocktail of brooding new wave and electronic dance-postpunk. Visibly inspired by acts like The Soft Moon, Editors, and early Radiohead, they powerfully push dark, melodic synths and pulsating beats into the venue. Armed with rave reviews for their album A Major Walk, this band resolutely drags the audience to the illuminated dancefloor.
Lifeless Past (NL)
The inseparable duo Lifeless Past revives the chill of classic 1980s post-punk and dark wave with an astonishingly modern verve. Injerreau Cijntje blends deathrock influences with cutting guitar melodies and driving beats into an exceptionally smooth whole. It's the ideal act for dark souls who love to seek out melancholy without having to stand still.
Nel & JP (BE)
Nel & JP sculpt dreamy punk poetry into a deeply dark, pulsating electro world. Since 2022, Nel Mertens has been throwing her sharp, romantic 'spoken words' into the crowd, propelled by the massive beats, cutting guitars, and deep basslines of producer JP De Brabander. Often augmented by guest musicians, their performance consistently culminates in a fascinating, theatrical, and unprecedented dance party.
