The Dutch foursome that is ZEITWENDE (2023) wears his musicality in a thick 90's coat. This fiercely passionate dark rock band gives you a bridge between Nine Inch Nails, 16 Horsepower and Peter Gabriel. Zeitwende walks the tightrope between intense rock riffing and conjuring melancholy on a solid, thunderous & tribal base. Heavy on the theme of Europe, the band does not shy away from the political edge.

 

ZEITWENDE ain’t new kids on the block. The past 20 years the bandmembers worked their way into the international music scene with bands like Textures, Kong, Extremities and Galanor.

Stef Broks - Vocals/Percussion

ECHOES OVER EUROPE | Release date May 1st 2026

​

March 16, 2022. The bombing of the theatre in Mariupol, Ukraine. Our continent is on fire.

​

Growing tired of the flood of cryptic lyrics in modern rock, I felt the urge to return to storytelling — ’60s Dylan–style. Or, if you prefer, the directness of early ’90s Tool, RATM, and Pearl Jam. Honest. Confrontational. Almost journal-like.

Europe became my lens, my subject, my wound.

Four years later, the band has arrived. The sound, the songs, and our debut album are finally here.

​

ECHOES OVER EUROPE; nine tracks, total playing time over 45 minutes. 

Nine stories about our beautiful continent in distress. To build a mutual consciousness. But first of all...to never forget what happens on our European soil.
