WASTE

WASTE makes noise. A lot of noise. And you can come and listen to that noise in the Charlatan on October 15! Deze Belgische band throws a mix of experimental noise and dark (post-)punk right in your face. You simply must have seen WASTE live. Where their songs are already simmering, they explode completely on a stage. Don't expect a neat show, but mosh pits, chaos, and a band that would rather tear the stage down with them. In 2026, the band finally broke through to the general public by winning De Nieuwe Lichting of Studio Brussel with the track ‘Dog House’. Previously, they also made it to the finalist of Humo's Rock Rally and won Sound Track , let's say: not the least references. In March 2026, their debut album Scream Until It’s Beautiful was released, recorded with Tim De Gieter (e.g., Amenra , Doodseskader ). Come and see, maybe they'll put you in a doghouse if you don't. ••• With an average age of barely 18 years and half-American roots, Sound Track-winner Gender Reveal Atomic Bomb brings a sound that is as explosive as their name. Led by sister and brother Blaise and Beau Ramsey, the band serves a raw, energetic mix of punk and prog, inspired by icons like Dead Kennedys and Rage Against The Machine. Their overwhelming live shows are a true sensation, but behind that musical storm force also lies a sharp mission: with their punk vibe, they resolutely kick against sacred houses such as rigid gender roles and social inequality. For fans of IDLES , SONS , and Ronker .
