From Nantes, France, Carpenter Brut stands at the intersection of synthwave and metal, crafting an electrifying sonic world that feels like a relentless night drive through neon-lit dystopia. Since bursting onto the scene with the EP I trilogy in the early 2010s, Franck Hueso, aka Carpenter Brut, has blended electronic brutality with metal intensity, finding inspiration in horror soundtracks and eighties aesthetics. The resulting music pulses with dark energy and cinematic breadth. There are no conventional lyrics as much as there are visceral emotional landscapes shaped by synthesiser fury and pounding rhythms. Live the experience is immersive and cinematic, with lights and visuals amplifying the visceral punch of the music. With two previous jaw-dropping GMM appearances under his belt, he’s been selling out mid-sized venues left and right. Fans that feel drawn to heavy soundscapes that defy categorisation and thrive on atmosphere are in for a thrilling sonic experience. (#GMM26)
