Ask a Punk NetherlandsModder / CCHHRRIISSTTOODD / Afgrond
Resistor Leiden, Saturday, February 28 at 09:00 PM GMT+1
Modder are returning to Resistor to present their new album "Destroying Ourselves For A Place In The Sun" with support coming by industrial hip-hop artist CCHHRRIISSTTOODD and Haarlem's post-sludgers Afgrond!
Modder (BE):
MODDER is a five-piece sludge & doom formation hailing from Ghent, Belgium. With riffs designed to make your neck break, supported by thundering basslines, grooving drums, industrialist samples and synths, they forge a unique sound in the sludge landscape.
With their third full length: 'Destroying Ourselves For A Place In The Sun’, (October 2025) Modder has once again pushed the boundaries for themselves.
Building upon the previous and widely praised album 'The Great Liberation Through Hearing', the new work is perhaps an even bigger statement.
And in doing so, the combination of 'Sludge' (and by extension all sorts of metal variants) with the even more refined electronic Psy elements comes awfully close to a perfect symbiosis!
CCHHRRIISSTTOODD (BE):
CCHHRRIISSTTOODD (pronounced “Christ O.D.” with a stutter) is the solo project of Ghent-based tattoo-artist-turned-musician Berry Bleck. His distinctive beats provide a bed for eclectic lyrics covering topics ranging from his struggles with depression and apathy to dreamlike descriptions of drug-fueled psychedelic trips.
A multidisciplinary artist, Bleck meticulously curates the project’s aesthetic himself, incorporating pieces of his own artwork and distinct style into each release. Constantly shifting between two worlds — the physical and the fantasy — CCHHRRIISSTTOODD has proved to be an undoubtedly unique blend of industrial
hip-hop, rap, witch house, and even rave. Live, his shows incorporate even more of this duality than ever: he draws his energy from the crowd, his mood shifting from euphoria to downright fury, each word dripping with intent to deliver a convincing
performance.

Afgrond (NL):
Vile and earthshaking Post-Sludge/Doom Metal from Haarlem. Originally formed as an instrumental three-piece in a former abbattoir, AFGROND really came together when their vocalist joined. Creating high volume, low tuned riffs combined with growling dutch vocals, the Haarlem based band released their debut album Verdronken Hemelen (Drowned Heavens) on 21 March 2025 via Geertruida Records. Inspired by the likes of Tesa, ISIS, Amenra, Ufomammut etc, AFGROND will guide you down into the abyss that awaits all.
Doors: 21:00
Damage: €9
