"BlackboxRed seem to have found a space, unbeknownst to anyone here in the Netherlands, and use it to create a sonic worldview in a full-on rock record that more affected, or fashion-conscious acts will find nigh on impossible to beat" [- Richard James Foster, Louder Than War] -- -- -- The moment the duo steps on the podium they become BlackboxRed.

A heavily crushing grunge
steamroller. A hounded human machine. Eva stares. An atom-splitting gaze. She tortures her guitar and
menaces vocally. Meanwhile Stefan becomes a hammering octopus hitting his drums mercilessly.
A stroboscope – the devil’s light – dazzles the spectators. No escape route.

Inspired by the likes of The Dead Weather, Crystal Castles and The Joy Formidable you get the idea of
what these two are getting at.

After the release of their debut album ‘The Gunner and the Ghost’ (2013), multiple singles and the EP
‘Beak to Beak’ (2015), BlackboxRed is now even more dark, mature and dangerous on this new album,
they also got Inspired by the dark French television series Les Revenants (the recipients) and Greek
tragedies. For the recordings of the album, the band built a studio together with producer Chris
Hamilton (Torres, Kate Nash) in the home of Dutch the festival Welcome to the village. The mastering is
done by Jason Mitchell (PJ Harvey).

Their second full-length album 'Salt In My Eyes' is out now worldwide on Butler Records (2018).

Played alongside: Savages, Claw Boys Claw, Blood Red Shoes, Sisters of Mercy and Rolo Tomassi.
