ctrl LIVE: Tramhaus [NL]

Friday, April 17, Dutch post-punk / crank-wave band Tramhaus returns to Romania, this time at Control.

The band is known for their broad and ever-electrifying sound that reaches from shoegaze to punk rock, heralded for their live shows full or attitude. The mix comes from the band’s diverse influences, but live it clicks into a tight, unified force. It makes sure to grab the audience from the first to the last note in a maelstrom of emotions. They handle tension with intention, holding it back or letting it overflow as needed.

“Our music is a bit darker, less heavy, but still light and daqnceable”

"Ferociously fun post-punk" - Far Out Magazine

"Their music is “personal”, but also somewhat reactive to the things in everyday life they come across." - The quietus

The symbiotic five-piece have toured nonstop, playing sold-out rooms and major stages across France, Germany, the UK, Central and Northern Europe, Spain and Portugal, with Japan firmly on their map. They have appeared at leading European festivals including Best Kept Secret, Sziget, Primavera, Dour, Colours of Ostrava, Tremor, and Les Vieilles Charrues, as well as key showcase festivals such as ESNS, Reeperbahn, MaMa, and The Great Escape.

Their first album titled ‘The First Exit’ came out September 2024. Major newspapers De Volkskrant, NRC and Trouw all gave them five out of five stars in their reviews, an exceptional consensus in the Dutch press. Also their sold-out show at the big hall in Paradiso was greeted with a perfect score by reviewers.
