Carnivore Club / Powerhouse

Indie, Psychedelic, Shoegaze

CARNIVORE CLUB
Carnivore Club is a neo-psychedelic indie rock duo from Berlin, Germany. Having met as music students in Hamburg, the two immediately formed a connection via their shared passion for idiosyncratic pop songs and experimental sound structures. While cultivating the band as a side project, they managed to release 2 well received records, which garnered them national radio airplay and favorable reviews (Germany’s seminal indie zine Intro called their 2015 album Years Of Sleep „the issue’s best sounding record“). In 2019, they decided to cancel all other musical ventures, and to devote body and soul to their collaboration. The intensity of that process and the friction of the characters involved is reflected in the self-produced music Carnivore Club continuously release – lush melodic flows contrasted by gritty guitar gestures, minimalist synths and electronic percussion, with a penchant for noisy textures and the absurd.

POWERHOUSE
Rouven Stoll developed the songs behind Powerhouse over the course of years, recording shoegazing miniature epics in his bedroom. Erin (Luise Pop, Snoww Crystal, Black Fjords), Tristan (Missing Organs, Black Fjords), and Tom (Raccoon Rally) all got on board to bring the songs to life, turning intimate songwriting into gig-ready fuzz-rockers.
