In the organizer's words:

Slow Club Freiburg presents:

BLIND BUTCHER + PAMPLEMOUSSE

BLIND BUTCHER // Super disco trash kraut from Lucerne
If there's a god of style, he needs to take a break, because Blind Butcher don't hold back:
Glitter tights, post-punk attitude and an unbridled will to reduce characterize their unique and radically danceable mix of rock'n'roll, new & no wave, suicide disco, punk, blues, krautrock, NDW and country.
As well as a good dose of trash.

Blind Butcher are more than just music - they are a performance, an art figure, an energetic state of emergency. Shrill outfits and a presence that oscillates between punk concert, science fiction revue and absurd theatricality.

Anything goes, as long as you are relaxed enough to try it out.
The Swiss duo, consisting of Christian Aregger (vocals, guitar, synthesizer) and Roland Bucher (drums, bass pedals, vocals), have been honing the perfect blend of minimalist yet technical, playful and danceable madness since 2010.

Since 2010, the two have been restlessly on the road, playing over 100 concerts a year throughout Europe while also working on numerous projects and composing music for film and theater. They recorded their debut album with Steve Albini in Chicago in 2013.

With their latest album "ALAWALAWA" (Voodoo Rhythm Records), BLIND BUTCHER have created a completely unique, crazy and dazzling universe of sound. They sing in English, German or in pure gibberish - sometimes empty of meaning as in "Staubsaugerbaby", sometimes lyrically powerful as in "Alles macht weiter".

BLIND BUTCHER belong to a generation that works without boundaries or stylistic barriers.
Their music is reminiscent of greats such as DEVO or CAN, but always remains unmistakably independent:
raw, direct, uncompromising and full of energy.

PAMPLEMOUSSE // Garage Noise Punk from France
Pamplemousse was founded in February 2016 on the island of La Réunion. After a year locked away in their rehearsal room, the band released their debut album in 2017 on the label A Tant Rêver du Roi (France).

The self-recorded album with homemade visuals, which is all about DIY, lays the foundations for a noise rock characterized by raw blues and far removed from the sunny postcard idyll of the Indian Ocean.

There are numerous enthusiastic comparisons with masters of the genre
of the genre from the 90s scene, including Shellac, Fugazi, Girls vs Boys and Chokebore, as well as with the Amphetamine Reptile and Touch 'n' Go labels, are all mentioned when it comes to the power trio from Reunion Island.

You can enjoy the urgency when you hear Pamplemousse
live, their thunderous sound emancipates itself from the styles
styles of noise, garage, punk, grunge or even stoner.
The band has toured extensively in France, Belgium,
Switzerland, Germany and Spain and shared the stage with Unsane (NYC), Lysistrata, It It Anita, Fuzz (Ty Segall), Cash Savage and The Last Drinks and Flat Worms, among others.

2024 marks another change as the duo packs up and moves to Lorraine (Eastern France). Pamplemousse continues to rehearse and compose for the follow-up to their album "Think of It". At the end of 2024, the duo returns to the Black Box Studio in Angers for the third time, where Peter Deimel is responsible for the
recording and mastering.

The result is "Porcelain", an uncompromising and aggressive fourth album, which was released on September 26, 2025, also on the A Tant Rêver du Roi label.

From the introductory "More Beautiful Than Madonna"
with its noise-rock fury and brilliant video, the last track "Brick Head" with its hypnotic guitars and the indie-punk gem "Bad Penny", "Porcelain" is characterized by controlled chaos.

Vocals / Guitar: Nicolas Magi
Drums / Backing Vocals: Sarah Lenormand
