When the time has come to do the last preparations for Christmas, and the anticipation starts getting to unbearable due to the gifts that might be placed under the tree, the time has come for the yearly Belgian Independent Music Fest in Belgium. The 10th issue of the festival, as happened in all those before, assembles an outstanding line-up to bring up anticipation to the melting point.
The promoters this year some fresh and relative new bands, like Swedish OI.B.M electro heads CONTAINER 90 (SE), more experienced and ripe artists like the British E.B.M duo A.A.A.K. (aka As Able As Kane), once on the Belgian cult label KK Records, the hardcore, E.B.M hooligans of TURNBULL A.C.’s (SE)(featuring SPETSNAZ singer Pontus Stalberg) and SUICIDE COMMANDO (B) who will be celebrating 25 years of Belgian Hellectro by playing an exclusive vintage set with songs taken from his first tapes and albums. BIMFEST wouldn’t be BIMFEST without their (revived) Belgian cult acts like DEFINITIVOS, PORTRAIT BIZARRE and FLESH & FELL, all of them presenting something new and something vintage, as well as new releases!
But still that’s not all! They also succeeded to catch some international (rebooting) cult acts such as UK post-punk-wave SECTION 25 (once Factory Records label mates of Joy Division) the Scandinavian EBM terrorists POUPPEE FABRIKK (SE) (First Belgian show ever!), electro-Industrial -EBM pioneers PANKOW (IT), CLOCK DVA (UK), and CLOCK DVA’s multi-media and research side project THE ANTI GROUP! Last but not least to mention are Australian industrial-electro pioneers SEVERED HEADS who are returning to our Belgium soil for another TWO EXCLUSIVE CONCERTS (on Friday & Saturday)! Both sets will differ and contain some SVH classics as well as some never live performed songs!
And... Since it’s their 10 Birthday... they are also happy to announce to you that the Belgian godfathers of Electronic & EBM music, FRONT 242 confirmed they will celebrate their 30th anniversary at our BIMFEST 2011! Both nights will be round-up by an after party featuring various VIP like DJ Lazer Stefan (Spetsnaz) DJ Monolith (aka Eric van Wonterghem) , DJ Skullscraper (Aka Dirk Ivens) and more TBC…
