As is tradition every year, Bimfest takes place at the end of the year. This year as well, on December 19 and 20 in the De Casino venue in Sint-Niklaas, the beats and bleeps will once again hit you from all sides. It will be here sooner than you think.
Akalotz, originating from Kaiserslautern and active since 2007, is a German electro/EBM/industrial duo known for their pounding rhythms, dark atmospheres, and aggressive shouts. Founded by Thorsten Haury (vocals & production) and later joined by Nico Klenner on drums, the group combines classic old-school EBM energy with melodic, dark electro elements.
Their albums Shift to Evil (Electro Arc, 2014), Confront (Electro Aggression Records, 2017), and Angry Body Machine(Scanner, 2024) show a steady evolution: heavier, more refined production and stronger songwriting, while maintaining the raw, dance-floor-ready core that characterizes them so strongly.
Their live shows deliver powerful energy, driven by machine-like beats, commanding vocals, and strong visual performance. Akalotz is EBM with conviction, depth, and pure force.
Akalotz will play on Saturday, December 20 at 5:30 PM on the Bimfest stage!
