Electropunk among mellow students


What do you get when you take 80's or 90's beats, raw guitar and bass and screaming punk lyrics? You get Revl9n. I saw them last night at Studenterhuset in Aalborg. The lead singer brings a special energy to the stage, with her eccentric stage performance that captivates you, even though her singing isn't that brilliant in my opinion. Electro punk doesn't have a big crowd in Aalborg, a hundred at most were present at their performance - perhaps these swedes are used to a bigger audience? A few, maybe fifteen, took the floor dancing to the beats. The height of the concert was "Waiting for desire" with its easy recognisable synthesiser sounds. Their songs differ a great deal from each other, some being almost entirely electronic and others more punk. I would probably never have gone to this concert if I hadn't gotten the tickets for free, but I didn't regret seeing this very unique duo .
