BREN + KAKKTUS (christening)

Brnoenfield aka Bren are synonymous with a sound combining elements of slowcore, shoegaze, blues and no wave with dark Czech lyrics. The band grew together with Kabinet MÚZ and they grew with them. The result of their joint journeys is their great album Tmou, which was released in 2024 on Kabinet Records. Bren recorded the album, illuminated by dark and suggestive emotions, at the Golden Hive studio in Prague with Michal "Amák" Šťastný. They are inspired not only by foreign performers such as Slowdive, Jaye Jayle, Swans or Nick Cave, but also by the domestic scene, such as Priessnitz. Dirty rock'n'roll and punk looking for beauty in dirt and simplicity with the new album Osmihodinový muž. “The album is a celebration of those who were forgotten during their lifetime and at the same time it is a diary entry of an observer who is looking for a piece of love and hope in all of this,” explain the Šternberk foursome. Kakktus will take you on a surreal walk through the night city to the sound of gloomy punk rock with a typical style of poems set to music about the heroes of their own stories that no one was ever very interested in.
