ROCKERILL FESTIVAL VII: DAY 2 | MEATBODIES + ANDRÉ BRASSEUR + KEEPSAKES & MORE

Ah, that moment between bands when you rush to the bar for another ice-cold pilsner and to chat with your mates about your exploits in the mosh pit you just left a few minutes ago... A peaceful moment that Fils Plastic and Duke will gleefully ruin by making you want to dance your ass and elbows while blasting the best tracks from their best collections. No time to rest! As Uncle Michel would say, "We'll rest when we're dead!"

Johnny's gang is back in town. For young punks and old punks alike, the gang has something to satisfy every generation of punks!

A pop/garage band formed by Fuity in 2021. He was quickly joined by Lucas Lepori, Nicolas De Wit, and Valérian Pinaud. The four members rapidly established themselves in Belgium with their live shows, which, let's be honest, are incredibly energetic.

Almost all of them with their hair blowing in the wind, the goal was, is and will be to make raw, naive music, blending their common influences towards a single, unique direction.

He wrote "Early Bird Satellite" in 1965, which sold 1 million copies. He was as admired by James Brown as by Claude François and worked with Vaya Con Dios and Johnny Hallyday. Internationally renowned for his sonic journeys between jazz and funk, André Brasseur returned to the forefront of the music scene with an iconic concert at Pukkelpop.

Mitraille is a new garage-punk gem hailing from Flanders! Their latest EP, "Hoopschroot," featuring seven killer tracks, is reminiscent of the work of Mind Rays. Wonderfully carefree, it's rock 'n' roll with a touch of squabbling. It's as complex as it is unpretentious.

The Romanian band Cold Brats are about to unleash some heavy, overdriven punk-hardcore with a touch of dissonance, all played with undeniable precision. After their promising debut album, "Punk in the Digital Age Extended," they're hitting the road again to promote their SPLIT EP with Pakt, recently released on Crapoulet Records, among others! Haide, să mergem!

Good old Californian Garage Rock sound just the way we like it with the return of the Meatbodies! Friends and collaborators of Oh Sees, Mikal Cronin and other very energetic Californian groups, Chad Ubovich, member of Fuzz and the Ty Segall Band, is back with his own band, the Meatbodies!

333 is a short but intense album that takes us back to the late 60s when rock was beginning to reveal a harder, heavier, more metallic form, while still retaining a certain innocence. Because this album contains everything: heavy garage rock, of course, but also Led Zeppelin-esque psychedelic folk on "Let Go," krautrock, and even more experimental and psychedelic elements.

In a negligee or a miniskirt, he delivers his live performances with the convulsions of an epileptic in a straitjacket. And for good reason: since music costs him less than psychiatric treatment, Christophe Clébard does it with a knife. His method?

Stripping a synthesizer of its guts and grinding them with vocal cords, all within a synth-punk sound as rough as it is off-kilter. A neuroleptic version of Suicide, a zoned sound on the periphery of the Eastern European Triple Alliance, at the crossroads of Noir Boy Georges and ASS, the techno-grinder side of Ventre de Biche.

Civilization is dying in a vast, dystopian tragedy of boundless absurdity, and Leroy is dying is its furious soundtrack. Calls to revolt punctuate the bursts of electric music, tribal drum machines, and hypnotic compositions... the perfect soundtrack for a Saturday protest.

Keepsakes, alias of New Zealand DJ/producer James Barret, has become a strong and distinct voice in the techno world since his rise to popularity with the EPs Stygian Concrete Works and Weapons Grade Manic in 2014. Since then, he has showcased his powerful and menacing, yet often cheeky and playful, productions on influential labels such as South London Analogue Material, Perc Trax, MORD, and Mindcut.

In 2018, his Haven techno party concept in New Zealand also evolved into a label with exclusively vinyl releases, producing international artists, and becoming the home of Keepsakes productions.

Now based in ŅŒtautahi (Christchurch) and after several years in Berlin, touring European clubs, he focuses on playing his hard and eclectic sound on global dance floors, with regular appearances at international techno institutions, which offer him a platform for his formidable vinyl DJ sets.

Co-founder of the Teenage Menopause and Drink&Drive labels, Elzo is preparing a killer finale: a mix of industrial, techno, acid, and EBM. Only those who can survive will do so...

Blues, Soul, Funk, African Music, Afrobeat, Roots, Disco, House, Acid, and Techno, all on vinyl. Okay, that's all well and good, but tonight, the other guy's sidekick just intends to beat the last survivors with apocalyptic beats.
