Hi, thanks for checking out Antillectual

We're a punkrock trio from Nijmegen, the Netherlands. We've toured and released albums worldwide since 2005. We like our punkrock political and melodic, combining the best of ’90’s skatepunk, ’00’s emo and ’10’s orgcore.

More video and “punkrock in the galleries”

After having played our first show with Glen, we stumbled upon this great youtube channel by Arjan van Geel. He has a huge archive of videos from cool punkrock shows and he was kind enough to put up almost the entire set we played at the W2 in Den Bosch. Check it out and make sure you browse through the other shows he filmed as well. Absolutely recommended viewing!

And while we’re talking images, moving or not: Kirsten van Etten joined us on our Italian tour earlier this year. The photo documentary she shot of that tour was part of her graduation project from the Utrecht School of Arts.

The complete documentary is up on her website. If you’re interested in polaroids, or just want to know what it looks like when we’re on the road, go check it out on Kirsten’s website. And again: check out the other works on her site.

That will be all for now. See you soon, either in the UK, Netherlands, Belgium, Greece, Germany or Austria.

Back in business

w2

Last night we played our very first show with our new man Glen on bass. He already has his own “Fan of Glen” fan club; yes, the show went very well. Below you can check a video of the show, or it didn’t happen.

Our next endeavor is our trip to the UK, which is taking shape, followed by supporting De Heideroosjes. Still needing a show on December 2nd:

DEC 1 UK Guildford, The Star Inn. w/ Detached, SR Radio, Drones, Suicide Si

€6,50 discount on tickets for No Use For A Name

New Pokerface and we will be the supports for the November 11 show of No Use For A Name at the W2 in Den Bosch. Needless to say, we are very happy to play that show. The last time we supported No Use at de Effenaar in Eindhoven was a blast!

Anyway, the W2 is allowing us to offer 10 tickets with a €6.50 discount. That means you can get into this show for a measly 10 euros. Wanna be that cheapskate punk? (cheap skate punk, ha!) Just drop us a line at info@antillectual.com and we’ll sort it out. First come, first serve.

See you in Den Bosch!

Release in Brazil, trip to Greece

Last weekend we got back from a crazy tour with our friends in Static Radio NJ. We had a blast reuniting and raiding around Europe again. For those who organized a show or came out to one: thanks a lot! Tour reports from our new guy Glen have been posted here and here, and the complete story will be posted on this site soon as well.

Of course there are also new plans for the future. To finish this year nicely we will be doing a small UK trip (looking for dates!), support for de Heideroosjes and No Use For A Name, some single shows and for the first time go to Greece! Next year January we will return to Germany for 2 weekend trips. Check the show department for details.

And last but not least: the nice people from Undermusic Records (Mute, Forus, End of Pipe) in Brazil will release our album “Start From Scratch!” on February 1, 2012. After that a Brazilian tour will follow!

Sitting still? No thank you!
