The band "Molchat Doma". European tour from 23 to 25 November 2024

The Belarusian post-punk band Molchat Doma, who now live in the USA, have announced a four-concert tour of Germany. They will be supported by the up-and-coming US band Urban Heat. Molchat Doma have built up a loyal fan base worldwide with their unique mix of post-punk, new wave and synthpop. Their dark but danceable music with a strong goth influence is reminiscent of earlier bands, but remains unmistakably their own style.

The band consists of Egor Shkutko, who sings the Russian lyrics with his deep voice, Roman Komogortsev on guitar, synthesizer and drum computer and Pavel Kozlov on bass and synthesizer. Their influences include Russian groups from the perestroika era such as Kino as well as post-punk and synth-pop greats such as The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Depeche Mode and The Human League.

Their second album, Etazhi ("Etagen"), was pressed so often in Europe that the American label Sacred Bones signed the band in early 2020. In the same year, they released their third album Monument. With a broader sound spectrum and progressive arrangements, their music remains emotionally profound and cool at the same time.

From 2022 to 2023, the band toured extensively around the world, playing sold-out shows at major venues such as Terminal 5 in New York, the Shrine Expo Hall in Los Angeles and the Kentish Town Forum O2 in London. They have also performed at renowned festivals such as Coachella, Cruel World and Primavera. Molchat Doma experienced their viral breakthrough online when some of their videos on YouTube reached over a million views and they received a lot of attention on Bandcamp.

As part of their tour, they will be performing in four German cities and delighting audiences with their dark, melancholic music. Don't miss the chance to see this extraordinary band live and get your tickets.
