We're a punkrock trio from Nijmegen, the Netherlands. We've toured and released albums worldwide since 2005. We like our punkrock political and melodic, combining the best of ’90’s skatepunk, ’00’s emo and ’10’s orgcore.
More about us
We got crazy thrilled when the RECONSTRUCTION TOUR got announced; what a tour, what a lineup! Then we pissed our pants when we got invited to play…
Catch you May 24 in Berendrecht with the legends of Pennywise, Propagandhi, Comeback Kid, The Iron Roses, Dead Pioneers and let’s do some RECONSTRUCTION

We’re excited as hell because we’ve got a new single for you! After releasing Together in 2023 we’ve been steadily working on new music. WHOSE STREETS? OUR STREETS! is the first of a new singles series!
Check the song on this landing page, including all platforms like Spotify and Bandcamp, the music video on YouTube, lyrics & liner notes and merch with the artwork by Daggers Design!
The release continues where we left off with Together. An uptempo, melodic track, the type that we love to write and play. Thematically this song deals with our public space and how “public” it is these days. Dedicated to everyone that lives on the streets and depends on public services and accommodation for their daily life and livelihood. And to anyone that can’t find a public bathroom, is fined for drinking in public or gets kicked out of a skate spot.
The music video footage is taken from the New Road Sessions episode we recently shot, more about that soon! The audio is recorded and mixed by Tim van Doorn at Big Dog Recordings and mastered by Nico van Montfort at XPZ Sound.
We’ve got a lot of shows coming up and we’re very eager to play our new single, so come check this new tune live! As always, info & tickets via our website.
That’s it for now, thanks for reading our newsletter! We love hearing from you, so don’t be shy, hit reply! In the next episode you will find the live session we recently did…
Take care, Ben, Riekus & Willem

There’s all sorts of horrible things happening in the world at the start of twentytwentyfive. But if you like to see us live or love to hear new music from us, we’ve got some news to hopefully cheer you up a little!
Behold, this is a big one! If you apply the right standards this will be our biggest tour through Germany and Switzerland! We’re really looking forward to return to cities we’ve been playing for ages like Hamburg, Berlin and Hannover. But we’re equally excited to make our debut in cities like Bottrop, Oerlinghausen and finally play Switzerland again!
Info and tickets via our website.
With a new tour poster comes new merch! The beautiful design was created by Daggers Design and we couldn’t NOT make shirts of it! You can (pre-)order them via our web shop. Packages will be sent out before the tour starts on Feb 20.
What better excuse to go on the road again than new music?! We’re eager to share our new single WHOSE STREETS? OUR STREETS! on February 18! A tiny toot from our own little horn: this new song is a skate punk anthem about our public space, how “public” it is these days, and who gets to use it. Where gentrification, hostile architecture and skate punk culture meet. Let’s crack a beer to that! (You’ll get that reference once you hear the song…)
That’s it for now, thanks for reading our newsletter! Don’t be shy, hit reply; we love hearing from you… In the next episode you can listen to our new single!
Take care, Ben, Riekus & Willem

Willem needed a new guitar strap. So he got a matching shirt. Now he’s presentable again, great success!
Reaching the end of the year it’s time to reflect on what happened in 2024, announce our end of the year party and hint at next year’s plans!
It’s been a crazy ride! Starting with getting presented as number 5 Export Product by the Dutch Performance Rights organization BUMA, followed by a media circus that we never thought we’d experience. After that blew over we had a busy live schedule touring through France, Spain and Portugal in March for 2 weeks, followed by a fabulous time at Manchester Punk Fest. In April we had the joy and honor of touring with Pussy Riot and playing Italy. In May we played NOFX’ final Dutch show and we probably did our nicest headline shows ever in Germany! Summer was relatively quiet but playing Pikpop in Groesbeek and a handful of Dutch shows was a nice way to stay in shape live. Meanwhile we were working on new music behind the scenes! To be continued…
Traditionally our final show will be Friends First Fest! Happening on December 14 at De Onderbroek in Nijmegen NL. Our friends in The Possible Suspect, Loud Love and Krime will join us! Proceeds going to Minor Operation Donations, pay as you like tickets can be found here! Don’t snooze because traditionally FFF sells out…
Winter is here, and it is actually getting cold! We have beautiful zipped hoodies available in all sizes, and 2 shirt designs for that extra layer to keep you warm. Bundles with our album for 30 euro, all via our web shop, orders always come with free stickers and more!
Looking ahead we can’t tell you too much yet, but in 2025 we plan to release 3 new singles, with the first one coming this spring. We also have a lot of touring and festivals planned! We’ve got big touring plans for March and April but for now we can give you a sneak peek with 3 awesome February dates (beautiful tour poster by Daggers Design!). Show info and tickets at our website.
That’s it for now, thanks for reading our newsletter! Don’t be shy, hit reply; we love hearing from you… In the next episode you will find out where we’re going in March and April and when to expect new music!
Take care, Ben, Riekus & Willem
