52 Hertz Whale (SK)

noise rock/ post punk

 

52 Hertz Whale is a Bratislava-based band whose music is ferocious and melancholic, cracked with vigour and impatience. With two releases under their belt – the eponymous EP of 2015 and “I’ve met a lot of people” released in 2017 – the band has toured in Slovakia, Germany, Belgium, Poland, Britain and Czechia and has gained a fervent underground following, thanks to their cathartic gigs, including Pohoda, Colours of Ostrava, Liverpool Sound City, MENT Ljubljana, Žižkovská noc, Grape and Sharpe festivals. Getintothis made “Fish In The Dead Sea” their single of the week after their gig at Sound City. At the break of 2019/2020, 52 Hertz Whale once again gathered attention of alternative music media all around Europe, first, due to their single “Thin Skin” and then for their performance at Slovenian showcase event MENT. The band played the biggest european showcase festival Eurosonic Noorderslag in 2022, and are working on a new record, will play selected festivals and tour in 2022.
