Sad and Gazing II: Barren Sea + Crashing + Her Loving Aftertaste

OCCII, Friday, May 15 at 08:30 PM GMT+2

Sad and Gazing is a night devoted to the lush, introspective side of Amsterdam’s underground—a space where distortion and atmosphere take center stage. Rooted in a DIY ethos, we aim to give shoegaze the central platform it rarely gets, inviting audiences into a fog-soaked world of saturated colors and roaring, immersive soundscapes. More than just a concert, Sad and Gazing is about building a community of emotion: creating a shared moment for drifting and feeling lost together in the dreamy haze of shoegaze and dream pop

Barren Sea
Female-fronted 4-piece from Amsterdam combining elements of grunge, slowcore and shoegaze. Barren Sea combines powerful lyrics with raw intensity to create a lingering, emotional live experience.
For fans of: Cocteau Twins, DIIV, Cranberries (with an edge), Ride.

Crashing
Inspired by shoegaze and alt-rock giants like Dinosaur Jr. and My Bloody Valentine, Crashing indulges in noisy reverberated hooks, intense live performances and raw unfiltered volume with a strong emphasis on DIY culture. Crank up the gain. Nail the kick drum to the floor. Bring earplugs.

Her Loving Aftertaste
Four independent musicians and friends all interwoven in the night culture of Amsterdam, attempting to create unique sounds utilising a power trio of drums, bass and guitar. Focus on dreamy vocals and lyrics that question life. Lengthy nostalgic and melancholy music connects the trio with heavily distorted dreampop and shoegaze elements. Woven into this are very calm and clean moments, that break the songs down into more structured pieces and throughout creations attempting to find a balance between gutwrenching noise and peaceful but tormenting harmony

Presale/door prices adjusted: our events are set up by volunteers in favour of supporting DIY touring acts, but it is getting ever more risky to plan and book events – please support the community and buy your tickets early! Presale closes 18.00 on day of the show. Remaining tickets will be available at the door.

It is a weird habit of mine that whenever I have to ride the bus I often decide to throw on a dream pop album or EP, I guess to keep myself calm. Today my choice while running important errands was listening to the entirety of I Can Hear the Heart Beating As One by Yo La Tengo.
