Mayflower Madame + No Love Lost

In the organizer's words:

In November 2024, Norwegian band Mayflower Madame released their highly anticipated third album Insight. Mixed and mastered by Maurizio Baggio (known for his work with The Soft Moon, Boy Harsher and The Vacant Lots), the album shows the band refining their signature mix of pulsating post-punk, shimmering shoegaze and ethereal psych-noir into a sharper and more expansive soundscape than ever before.

With the nine songs on Insight, they take their listeners on a hypnotic journey through the shadows, full of haunting melodies and dreamy melancholy. At the same time, the album remains catchy and dynamic. The album has been widely praised and received extensive support from radio stations such as MOJO, Rolling Stone Germany, Eclipsed Magazine, Sonic Seducer, Rumore Magazine, BBC 6 Music and many more. Known for their intense and atmospheric live performances, Mayflower Madame has played headlining shows in ten different countries since their release, with more tours and festivals lined up for 2026.

No Love Lost play modern post-punk, inspired by 80s bands like Joy Division, The Sound and Gang of Four, but also the post-punk revival bands of the 2000s, most notably Interpol. The individual instruments never stand on their own, only the interplay of guitars, bass, drums and synthesizers creates an overall picture over which the vocals move, often angry or desperate, but also always a little melancholic.
