NFOP Recommends: Thulebasen.

23 Sep 2011 — Henning Lahmann
Copenhagen-based trio Thulebasen have already made quite a few blog rounds this year since the release of their second full-length Gate 5 in March, but also not least due to the fact that they're part of that Danish capital collective behind Escho, that recently profiled imprint that has brought us this year's most opinion-splitting buzz phenomenon Iceage. In my humble opinion Thulebasen themselves are actually the more interesting project of the lot, with their relentlessly powerful and aggressive yet full-blown and distinctly artsy take on 80s to 90s stadium rock. I have absolutely no doubt that this music can get only more impressive and mind-blowing when performed live on stage, so it's a pleasure to officially recommend tonight's Noisekölln-curated Berlin show together with Strange Forces and Macaco Mau at Raum 20 (Ziegrastr. 11, Neukölln). Don't miss this one. In very much related news, Noisekölln is also gonna host Iceage's Berlin debut (if I'm not mistaken) in November. More info on that soon.
