YHWH Nailgun + Grote Geelstaart

YHWH Nailgun is a fresh addition to the wave of genre-defying, experimental bands like black bidi and HEALTH. Their vibrant, energetic, and eclectic sound emerges from transforming industrial noise-scapes into digitized electronic dance floor anthems, with a vocalist who sounds as if he’s simultaneously being tortured and reaching euphoria. The result is an exhilarating, boundary-pushing sonic firework display.

The four-piece band from New York released two EPs in 2022, along with a handful of singles, making them relatively new in terms of output. Yet, their avant-garde sound has already garnered significant attention, earning them slots on major stages, including a spot at Best Kept Secret. How exactly to describe YHWH Nailgun remains elusive—and that might just be their greatest strength. You’ll have to come experience it for yourself.
