ALLUS (NL)

About

ALLUS is a five piece band from Schoorl that plays what they call Nederfunkpunkpoprock: raw but tender Dutch language pop with funk and punk running through it. They sound a bit like the lovechild of Doe Maar, Goldband and De Dijk, and they like to toy with your expectations before blowing them up with a burst of energy. On stage the five of them lean on charisma and plain honesty. Self expression, acceptance and being yourself sit at the heart of what they do, and they aim for an atmosphere where everybody feels free to be who they are. Their EP Koortsdroom captures slices of everyday life, from a student house get together to a Friday afternoon drink at work, all sung about in their own lively style.
