Really been enjoying this record by The Hobknobs. I'm a big Lewsberg guy so anything Arie is on I'm curious about. Understated record. Exists next to old raincoat bands and Cate le Bon. Big fan.

Now plaing: The Hobknobs - Helmets Off LP (2026, 12XU.) As delightful as their track on “Going back to sleep…”. They are firmly in my imaginary Gonerfest dream team for a Trump-Miller-less world. #nowplaying #recordsthegoodkind

The Hobknobs - Helmets Off Lewsberg is (was?) one of the best bands operating this decade and this record with Yaël Dekker from Lewsberg and Arie van Vliet is as brilliant. Get it now on @12xurecs.bsky.social #firstrecordoftheday

50 years ago today Throbbing Gristle performed live for the first time. 'COUM' was Cosey Fanni Tutti and her individual action 'Womans Roll'.
“The format demands unusual musicality from its drummers, a willingness to use the kit not just for texture and pace but for bursts of colorful, sculptural orchestrations.” You-On at AD. aquariumdrunkard.com/2026/07/06/y... @12xurecs.bsky.social
You-On :: New Side - Aquarium Drunkard
Few formats expose improvisers quite like piano and drums. On New Side, Jim White and Masami Tomihisa embrace that openness, conjuring eight spontaneous dialogues that drift between hushed lyricism, e...

The Hobknobs: Helmets Off aquariumdrunkard.com/2026/06/09/t... Hobknobs make fragile, minimal songs with a surreal, philosophical bent. “Dictionary” sounds like the pencil sketch of a Velvet Underground song, the guitars trebly and luminous, a slackly shaken tambourine the only percussion.
Thrilled to announce that The Hobknobs will be performing their minimalist, scrappy pop songs for us on October 3rd @thelexingtonlondon.bsky.social , with R.M.F.C. What a night! R.M.F.C. THE HOBKNOBS Sat 3 Oct The Lexington, 96 Pentonville Rd, London, N1 9JB Tickets: link.dice.fm/ta72c863481e
The Hobknobs komen op zondag 20 december naar V11 met Helmets Off. De band rond Yaël Dekker en Arie van Vliet brengt eerlijke gitaarpop vol eenvoud, subtiele eigenzinnigheid en sterke songs die juist zonder opsmuk het meest raken. Tickets: www.rotown.nl/bl/thehobknobs
