🎢 37 🎢
And what a ride life has been so far.
There’s been more love and beauty on my path than 27-year-old me would ever believe, and every dream 17-year-old me ever had, I’ve already lived.
Though, for a 37-year-old me, it is not enough. I want more, not for myself, but for you. Every ounce of joy I have ever experienced I hope you find twofold. I want my freedom to be yours to experience, whoever or wherever you are.
I want the mess that is this modern life to become something better for all of us.

And so this is where 37 starts for me.
My thirst is as endless as it ever was.
But things feel different this time around.

👹 I’m over the moon that the new @_mssln_ track just dropped, which features a couple of words from yours truly. 👹
To say I’m a big fan of these guys would be an absolute understatement. I was lucky enough to meet JB on the Igorrr x Amenra tour, and I just spent night after night being blown away at what an absolute powerhouse of a vocalist and great human he is.

We shot this video the day after Doodseskader played Aix-En-Provence earlier this year, got to meet the other guys who have absolutely stolen my heart as well, and to be honest, watching them track their parts for this video just made me REALLY want to see them play live.
Big thanks to @yann.lcr_ for making this gem of a video.

Hope you all enjoy the collab as much as I did making it!

“Mon corps il hurle, mon cœur il brûle
Mais je le fais, et je le fais bien.
Tant que tu ne l’as pas vu,
Ni vécu
Faut que tu captes que tu ne sais
Rien.”

🥺 Still on a high since our release show. 🥺
Absolutely surreal to bring these new songs and a whole new energy to the stage and get to share it with so many amazing people. I can’t say how much I love and appreciate you all, and how much I’m aware of the fact that you all made this night into what it was.

Tomorrow we continue in @bootstraat , Hasselt, and I’m beyond eager to continue the celebrations.
Come hang with your mans.

Yesterday was one of the most beautiful nights in the history of this band.
Never in a million years could we have imagined bringing so many people together to celebrate our new album, let alone to feel such a strong connection in the room from the first ‘til the very last second of the set.

For the first time playing a show felt like fighting for ourselves instead of fighting ourselves.
And it felt beyond amazing.

We love you all so much.
When both of us were just kids we shared one dream.
And now we know that dream is you.

Yesterday would not have been possible without the hard work and love of the people around us;

The change is me. I could write a million words about this record, yet none of them could describe what these songs are to me. Over the past two years, I’ve been struggling a lot, partly with myself and partly with this life. After a while, I came to understand that the part of me that is broken is something that just is. I can’t help it, nor can I fix it. It doesn’t really matter. It just is.
What does matter is that this world feels increasingly foreign to me.

I don’t feel like I belong, or to put it more bluntly: I don’t want to belong to this world. It is ugly. It chews people up, spits them out, and just keeps spinning. We close our eyes to amounts of suffering that are absolutely unacceptable. We choose comfort over morality. We forget and move on. We accept our own suffering because that is just how life is supposed to be. So they say. We’ve put love on a leash and allow hatred to have free rein.

I don’t want to pretend I am something to look up to, or that I have more answers than anyone else. I’m just a guy. I made 10 songs with my best friend. Every minute of this record, every sentence is a reflection of who I am and what I truly think. I hope you find in it what you need most.

This record wrote itself; I was just along for the ride.
Thank you, @45_burroughs, for being by my side and fighting tirelessly for this thing.
Thank you @rreedduuxx for being my rock, my endless motivator and for making this thing a reality.
Thank you, @wenzelmaarten, for gracing us with the artwork of my dreams.
Thank you for listening.

“Is this a long con? Are you selling me a dream?
This world seems all wrong, full of people just like me.”

“Is this a long con? Are you selling me a dream?
This world seems all wrong, full of people just like me.”

In less than a month, a brand-new adventure and phase of my life will begin. We’ll be heading out to play our new record “The Change Is Me,” and as I’m writing this, I’m on a diet of no sleep, endless amounts of work, non-stop financial nightmares, and almost no contact with friends or the outside world for almost two years now. It’s taken a lot - yet somehow I feel more eager, more excited, and more determined than I ever have.

Even if you’ve seen us 10 times already, this is something else. Not just because of the setup, the visuals, or the songs. It’s a feeling thing.

I’d like to genuinely thank everyone who has gotten their tickets in advance or preordered our record. You guys truly are what keep us afloat, and this is something that is at the forefront of my mind every single day.

There is no me without you. And so I aim to give you the best version of me that I possibly can.

So, I guess this is where I say I hope to see you all soon?
