Forget everything you think you know about Equal Idiots. Their new self-titled album is far more layered than the Kempen clay they emerged from. Thibault Christiaensen and Pieter Bruurs build a universe of raw riffs, shoegaze haze, acoustic interludes, and epic vocals. Across eleven tracks, they showcase versatility, daring, and emotion, from angry, dark riffs to subtle, intimate moments. This is a band that refuses to repeat itself: this is Equal Idiots 2024, a Kempen peacock proudly displaying its colors, irresistible, intense, and full of character.

After more than twenty years, De Priceduifkes have become a staple of the Belgian punk rock scene. The Kempen trio evolved from local up-and-coming punks into an internationally recognized act, performing over 800 shows across Europe, North America, and Japan. With five full-length albums, a sixth on the way, and numerous appearances on splits, compilations, and tributes, they’ve left an indelible mark on punk rock and continue to be a formidable force on stage.
