All Dutch bands are rather local ;-)
But in my friends/clubbingfriends "circle" there are some good bands too.


* HERR (Heilig Europa/Romeins Rijk) > Neoclassical/darkambient/neofolk band
I will be seeing them play live tonight. They have a website here:
http://herr.tegendemuur.nl/
Yes there are runes on it, no they're not nazis ;-)
Their site is beautifully made!
2 mp3's on the website.


* TPROE (The Peoples Republic of Europe) > Rhythmic power industrial/darkambient band.
Website: http://www.tproe.com/
Sounds available on the website.


* Fertile Reality > The new wave of Dutch new wave ;-) newwave/postpunk/spacerock.
http://www.fertilereality.tk/
Also mp3's available on the site!


* Grendel > Unorthodox and original use of orchestration, obscure samples incorporated with harsh and pounding EBM structures.
http://www.grendel-base.com/
Sounds on the site, I like Catastrophy a lot, and Zombienation, but the last one isn't on the site, listen to it if you get the chance.


* Predella Avant > Cold and sacral soundscapes/ambience to triumphant and bombastic orchestral compositions.
The goal of this project is to stimulate the listener's imagination and let them individually discover the story within the music.
Up till now the results/reactions have been very interesting concerning this matter.
One person will find himself wandering the corridors of an unknown temple, whilst the next will find himself on a post-war battlefield.
The listener may even discover something within (or about) themselves.
It's all in the mind of the beholder. One of my fav local bands this!
Live exceptionally good when they play with the drummers from also a local band called Volksweerbaarheid on stage.

Too bad no sounds on site, but I share some on soulseek ;-)


* Asrai > Twilight zone between Gothic Rock and Metal.

* Clan of Xymox > Darkwave, I'm sure you'll know this band.

* Right Direction/400$ Suits > Hardcore punk, two bands my brother in law Dave "sings" in.
No website that I know of
