The Notwist

The Notwist

Abrasive hardcore punk and heavy metal from a band later known for glitchy pop. Raw, distorted, and completely devoid of synthesizers.

Before they were the kings of glitch-pop, they were a loud-as-hell hardcore band.

Relentless, aggressive energy with a hidden core of existential anxiety.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The sudden shift from a sludge-heavy riff to a frantic punk gallop on the opening track.
The way the vocals break into a desperate scream during the bridge of Winter.
The relentless, driving bassline that carries the sub-two-minute chaos of Be Reckless.
