A benevolent package of loud electronics, synth eruptions and sonic destruction is coming to Šiška, courtesy of veterans HEALTH and fiery duo Youth Code. Hard music for hard times!
With their relentless interpretation of electronic music, the Los Angeles trio HEALTH have created a brutally roaring opus on their four solo albums. Though their music undoubtedly tramps through darker musical and psychological areas, its catchy melodies and ethereal vocals hide masterful moments of cathartic absolution, brazenly inviting you to dance. Judging by the critical response, the band surpasses itself with each new release, from their mad debut HEALTH (2007) to the massive VOL. 4 :: SLAVES OF FEAR (2019). They’ve also gained legions of followers on tours with industrial music legends Nine Inch Nails and Gary Numan, as well as with performances at festivals such as Coachella and Primavera.
The band has also left its mark in the computer world, with well-received music for games such as Max Payne 3, Grand Theft Auto V and Cyberpunk 2077, and has been returning to its roots in recent years. Having first made a name for themselves with a remix of a Crystal Castles track, they’ve also established themselves as expert remixes over the course of their career, regularly accompanying their albums with remixed versions. On the 2020 album DISCO4 :: PART I, they went a step further. The album consists exclusively of collaborations with other renowned artists. The range of collaborators reflects both the breadth and the reputation of HEALTH, as they include e.g. Perturbator, Xiu Xiu, JPEGMAFIA, Ghostemane, 100 gecs … With last year’s Nine Inch Nails collab “Isn’t Everyone”, HEALTH already announced the upcoming DISCO4 :: PART II, which again promises new highs. We’ll toast their health in June.
HEALTH will be joined by their fellow citizens and also collaborators Youth Code, who instill their love of old-school industrial and EBM music with hardcore anger and attitude. Their blend of abrasive vocals, throbbing drum machines and uncompromising synths, combined with wild live shows, quickly won over critics, listeners and colleagues, including cult band Skinny Puppy. Definitely one of the most thrilling bands of the new generation!
