  2. L'Orne, Ineptitude, Coaster

    Resistor, Saturday, May 9 at 09:00 PM GMT+2

    L'Orne

    Raw Post Rock band from Rotterdam. Their bio states: L’orne evokes feelings of melancholy through their blend of doomy post-rock, ethereal slowcore, psychedelic noise-rock and anything that flirts with the unpredictable and the unhinged.

    They are no strangers to our stage. They really had to improvise the first time because our mixing desk broke down. They impressed anyway. We are exited L'orne gets a rematch, now supported by all our equipment in full force.

    Ineptitude

    Hailing from Utrecht, Ineptitude was created as an alias for singer/songwriter Thomas van Neerven and his home recording projects. Since the release of the Monologues EP in 2023, the project has grown into a four-piece band of like-minded musicians with a passion for loud, cathartic music.

    Together, they create an intoxicating soundscape that seamlessly weaves together elements from slowcore, emo, post-rock and doom metal. Their most recent release, 2025’s The Distance We’ll Never Cross EP, sees them exploring a sound that is equal parts vulnerable and punishing.

    Coaster

    The third band performing really ties the night together. Coaster, an Utrecht-based folky slowcore project fronted by Bart Appel and Paul Dijkman. They take influence from the lo-fi and slowcore acts of the 90s and 00s. The duo added a drummer and currently perform as a three piece.

  10. Der abwesende Gott – Über das Böse

    Sendung: NDR Kultur | Glaubenssachen | 15.03.2026 | 08:40 Uhr

    Alt wie die Religionen selbst ist die Frage in ihnen, wie Leid und Unrecht, Schmerz und das Böse vereinbar sein können mit dem Gedanken einer Transzendenz, die den Menschen umfängt. Warum? Diese Frage scheint ins Wesen dessen zu gehören, was wir „Gott“ nennen. Dass ein allmächtiger Gott zugleich ein Liebender ist, will nicht zusammenzupassen mit den Erfahrungen von Bedrohung und Verletzung. Der Essay erkundet die biblischen und mythischen Erzählungen vom Ursprung des Bösen. Es sind Bilder und Geschichten, die auch aus eigenen Leiderfahrungen heraus Worte suchen, die trösten und verwandeln.

  11. RE: hsnl.social/@revspace/11625665

    RevSpace, the hackerspace I'm a regular at, will have it's open day next saturday. I will be exhibiting my PDP-11/84 and possibly work on some other retro hardware as part of this.

    Perhaps I'll attempt to repair my 11/44, or show off the VAX-11/750 I keep around there.

    They do require visitors to sign up to help load balance the tours of the hackerspace, so check the link below.

  12. A quick visit to the Cherry Blossom (Hanami) festival at the World Museum in #Leiden.

    The outdoor market was smaller but also remarkably less crowded than the other #JapaneseMarket that is held at the #Rapenburg in July. A very nice atmosphere topped off with a brief visit to the #Hortus with its #ChineseGarden and #JapaneseGarden

  13. En wat is dit voor 'n fraai bloeiende struik? Wie het weet mag het zeggen. (Ik kon het bijbehorende naambordje niet vinden.)

  14. Plezierig wandelingetje gemaakt door de #Hortus #Leiden

    't Was nog wel een tamelijk kale boel maar het zonnige weer vergoedde veel.

    Bij de Japanse tuin stond zowaar iets in bloei. Verstand van bomen heb ik niet, maar ik gok op een Japanse kers.

    Nou @voltnederland / @laurensdassen, daar vallen jullie toch echt door de mand! 🧺 Eerst stoer een cordon sanitaire om #FvD heen in o.a. Amsterdam en dan dít! Dan zie je maar weer, liberalen waren gisteren en zijn vandaag wegbereiders van het #fascisme!

    Prepare for some in your face hardcore, powerviolence and grindcore with Portugal's Bas Rotten and LMDA from France/Belgium! Local support comes by Utrecht's Snake Eater!

    Bas Rotten:

    PREDATORY GRIND TANK!!! This fierce quintet was formed in2017 and besides the demo, the guys have recorded their debut album"Surge", which is gathering nothing but positive reactions from all over the world!!! And it's a fucking roller of total grindcore mixed with maximally catchy mosh crossover passages.

    "These guys are fierce, fast, they hit hard and, that's right, they are a lot of fun" - Bas Rutten - Heavyweight Champion of everything.

    https://basrotten.bandcamp.com/album/surge

    LMDA: 4-piece powerviolence straight out of France & Belgium.

    https://lmdapowerviolence.bandcamp.com/album/bebop-grinders

    Snake Eater: Is the sound of the screwed horns of war against colonialism worldwide. Taking
    influence from Pakistani-Punjabi poetic and musical traditions, their lyrics advocate a strong anti-imperialist stance, sung in both English and Urdu.
    With grindy metal-tinged hardcore riffs with a broken up buzzsaw guitar tone from gear that survived a housefire, d-beat drums and a punk attitude to tie it together, Snake Eater shows promise to devolve into chaos, both in the crowd and on stage.

  18. Modder / 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!

    https://modder.bandcamp.com/

    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.

    https://cchhrriissttoodd.bandcamp.com/

    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

  19. CW: re-intro! (click to reveal)

    New year, new people arriving here... new re-intro post!

    Jennifer here, old queer writer / musician / geek, based in Nottingham, England.

    Music-wise, I write songs and play bass, as well as having violin skills and occasionally writing for orchestra. Latest just-for-fun music thing is practising on drum kit when I get the chance: nothing flash, just playing along to songs I like.

    A big learning-interest for me right now is Systemic Modelling, a set of tools for catalysing collective intelligence in groups.

    Work-wise, my main thing currently is the organisational side of (mostly online) courses for people to learn about SysMod. Being in & around all that is great for my own learning, so I'm pretty happy with work at the moment.

    Covid-careful. Still following the science updates. Recently did a long blog post about having and mostly-recovering-from Long Covid.

    Used to be a regular at BiCon the UK bi conference/ convention; dipped in again in 2025 when it came to Nottingham.

    This year, I want to do more blog-writing and music-recording... and maybe catalyse a covid-careful social meetup of some kind, although limits of energy & time might hinder that wish.

    In terms of party politics, right now I'm liking the look of what the Green Party are up to.

    I've been on Fedi since late 2022 when I realised Twitter was headed down the dumper, and overall I really like it here.

    Sometimes I post about little bits of sewing-mending I've done or button badges I've designed, or the odd pic (with alt text) of a tree or flower or moss.

    Lived in Leiden NL for a few years as a child, went to school there, still speak some Dutch. I never seemed to see any Dutch tweets back in the Twitter days, I suppose because the algorithm there was segregating the languages. I like how the Fediverse software doesn't do that, thereby assisting me to keep that bit of my brain ticking over :-)

    If you want to know more, ask &/or follow :-)

    Vorhin habe ich mir die Frage gestellt, wieso 👯 #Menschen gerne die Blüten der 🌱 #Heilpflanze 🌱 #Cannabis konsumieren, die das nicht aus medizinischen Gründen tun, die keine ♿ #Schmerzen haben oder irgendwelche ♿ #Leiden lindern wollen. Die keine psychischen #Verletzungen lindern?

    Warum ⁉️ mag jemad die Wirkung von 🌱 Cannabis als [was gibt es für Worte, außer "Droge" die nicht negativ assoziiert sind?] jetzt fällt mir #Genussmittel ein 😀

    Wer mag etwas sagen? 🙏 #wepray
