DESCRIPTION:
Live @ OCCII - Amsterdam The Netherlands :

GEWAPEND BETON .

Gewapend Beton stops.

After more than 10 years of existence, Gewapend Beton is approaching its end. As of the 7th of June 2013 the band will be no more. We feel that the way in which the band exists now does not represent the energy, feeling and persuasion we want to convey. The past decade has been cool: we have evolved in playing our music, released a bunch of records, played a lot of shows and we are grateful for this all. But it is time to recognise when things need to stop, and that moment has come. It is time for something different, something new.

We won't stop playing music. Oeds, Ming and Douwe will start a new band, called Death Alley. Find us on internet ( facebook.com/deathalleyband ) and make sure you don't miss the first release on the 20th of June 2013: a sneak preview Peter Pan Speedrock -- Death Alley split record!

Gewapend Beton will do three final shows, playing songs that have become a vast part of the set list over the years. We will celebrate our Belgian farewell in Harelbeeke on Saturday 18th of May. On the 1st of June we play at Borstrock Festival.
The very final gig will be where it should be: OCCII Amsterdam on Friday 7th of June 2013! Don't miss out!

..BIOGRAPHY..

It's been 8 years since Gewapend Beton began their journey down the path of playing aggressive punk rock with an early 80's UK influence. After releasing "17 Until We Die" (La Familia/Dirty Faces, 2007) and "Empty Batteries" (La Familia/Crucial Attack, 2009) this 4 piece is barely into their 20's and it's time for them to unleash their new album.
"Big Dumb Kids" (GSR Music/Dirty Faces, 2011) is an album title that still embodies the spirit of when they first formed and fell in love with the music they were passionate about enough to emulate and yet has the maturity of a band that has been writing, touring and playing for the past 8 years.

"Big Dumb Kids" is an anthemic album that is full of raw dirty Punk songs with hook after hook, yet an edge that doesn't betray their influences of the early 80's UK and US Punk and Hardcore scenes. With a sound that doesn't trap itself within just one genre, Gewapend Beton will surely find fans in every crevice of every corner that feel the urge to shout along with their lyrics of revolt and good times. The sound is electric and full of energy and if you close your eyes for a second it feels like you're at a show and you can almost feel the bodies slam dancing into you and the heat of a packed room dripping with sweat from the primal feel of the pulsating aggression that is emanating from the speakers.
"Big Dumb Kids" is relentless in its attack and will have you hitting the repeat button time and time again and is Gewapend Beton's modern day homage to their early punk and hardcore roots that explodes with intensity.

With the brand new album in the pocket, Gewapend Beton is eager to spread their tunes around the globe!
