The Stellar Lineup for Pekkersfeesten 2025
🔥 Suicide Commando (Headliner)
A legend in harsh electro-industrial, Suicide Commando has been shaping the genre since 1986. Fronted by Johan van Roy, the band is known for dark, aggressive beats and hits like “See You In Hell” and “Bind, Torture, Kill”. With their latest album “Goddestruktor” reaching #9 in the German charts, their performance promises relentless energy.
🎸 Pink Turns Blue
One of the pioneers of Darkwave, this Berlin-based post-punk trio has been influential since the 1980s. Following their 2021 hit album “Tainted”, they return with “BLACK SWAN” (2025), blending melancholic synths and haunting vocals. A must-see act for fans of The Cure and Clan of Xymox.
🖤 Star Industry
Hailing from Belgium, Star Industry brings gothic rock energy with influences from early New Wave. Their 1997 debut “Iron Dust Crush” gained European acclaim, and with new music on the way, their set will be a dark, melodic journey.
💫 Dear Deer
This French duo merges electro-pop, New Wave, and post-punk into a glittery, danceable spectacle. With albums like “Chew-Chew” (2018) and “Collect & Reject” (2022), their live show is energetic, glamorous, and irresistibly fun.
🌌 The Ultimate Dreamers
A Belgian cold wave/post-punk act inspired by dreams and melancholy, their latest album “Paradoxical Sleep” (2025) sets the stage for a hypnotic live experience.
🎶 KRANK (Plays Joy Division)
Celebrating 45 years of Unknown Pleasures, KRANK delivers a faithful Joy Division tribute. A nostalgic yet powerful opening for Pekkersfeesten 2025!
