Band: EMPTY HEAD
Who: Muscular noise-rock outfit, formed in 2020 in Liege.
Club: Kinky Star, Ghent, Belgium

Last month, these manic motherrockers released their boiling debut LP Freak Show.

TUTV said: “Empty Head produce riff-roasting pandemonium, brutally melodic at its core,
with a merciless, tsunami of titanic tunes that challenge the flexibility of the Richter scale
when all Herculean choruses kick in.

All their banging belters are revved up by chainsaw riffs and explosive drum/bass fuel,
while the maniacal vocalist – 4 lungs and iron pipes – brings tons of kickass gusto and
sinewy ardency to the table. ”

Last Tuesday they came and conquered my hometown of Ghent. They turned a packed club into a sweaty sauna with their ear-popping roller coaster performance. Empty Head is the real punked-up deal. Their vociferous vitality ricocheted all around while all eyes were focused on fervent frontman Simon in the front.

His towering voice fuels his fast and furious troops who produce a blustery whirlwind of high-strung hurly-burly. They put up a freakin’ rock show, leaving everybody (mostly let’s-check-this-band-out attendees) stunned. The empty heads gained a lot of new fans. Trust me, they’re going places. They have cool swagger, a mean machine additude, and a series of frantic firecrackers. Don’t miss them.
