MILK ME presents: Frustration + Warm Exit

About

𝙁𝙧𝙪𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 Frustration is the flawless journey of the wild children of French rock: from the stirring beginnings within the aptly named Happy Family - the clique of DIY rockers gravitating around the Parisian record store Born Bad -to the progressive anchoring of the band in the world of French and European underground punk, from the rise of power at the turn of the 2010s to the mutation of the band into a real unifying force of all the tribes of rock'n'roll, The band has written one of the most beautiful chapters of French rock and has become its most emblematic actor. The cause is now heard by all. However, the members of Frustration have never departed from an integrity and humility that have always been the charm of the group. They have never stopped probing the depths of the human soul, depression and madness, questioning the ecological impasse, questioning with amazement our collective headlong rush and digging into the legacy of punk 'No Future'. The band provides proof that punk rock sometimes knows how to be mature and adult. In six albums, all of which are essential, Frustration has explored all the niches of cold-wave, post-punk and British punk, not hesitating to venture into dark-waves and gothic industrial... 𝙒𝙖𝙧𝙢 𝙀𝙭𝙞𝙩 Warm Exit is a post-punk quartet based in Brussels, Belgium, formed in 2020. Their music blends a raw, intense energy with influences ranging from post-punk and industrial avant-garde to kraut and noise. With a sound that echoes the spirit of bands like Birthday Party, LCD Soundsystem, and PIL, Warm Exit's debut album Ultra Violence explores the darker corners of post-punk. The record moves between contrasting tempos and dynamic energy levels, with vocals that range from haunting whispers to powerful, raw screams. The band's soundscape features moments of dissonance, evocative spoken word, and industrial textures, creating a compelling atmosphere for listeners. Over the past few years, Warm Exit has built a dedicated following, both locally and internationally, largely thanks to their energetic and captivating live performances. On stage, they blend distorted bass and guitars with driving electronic beats and rhythm, creating an immersive, danceable experience. Currently, the band is working on their second album, which is set to further shape their identity and strengthen their place in the evolving post-punk scene of the 2020s. Known for their striking live presence, Warm Exit remains eager to share their music with new audiences, bringing their unique sound to stages around the world.
