If you were a regular at punk shows in Belgium during the 90s, chances are you've witnessed Concrete Cell taking the stage at some point. Hailing from the northern region of Antwerp, this band delivered fast-paced punk rock reminiscent of NOFX, Strung Out, and Pennywise, while infusing their own unique elements that set them apart from the average punk bands of that era.
Busy busy days at the Genet HQIeperfest is approaching slowly but surely. It’s the main event we’re involved in each year, and it’s always sooo much fun!! We’re sure we’ll see many of you over there. Let’s hang out!
STERCORE & WALLS OF JERICHO
We just donated €450 to the local wild animal sanctuary “De Zonnegloed”. We were able to send them this first donation, a part of the proceeds we make on some projects. Did you read the adventure of Kanu in the children’s book “Het mysterie van de verloren CD”?! Still available in our webstore!
Happy 2023, here’s some Genet news for you!
We’ve announced our cooperation with NOWHERES and LAST before. The LAST CD was released a few months ago, now the LP is also up for presale. CONCRETE CELL are Genet records OGs. They haven’t been around as a band for more than 20 years. Now they are back, planning to play live again ànd releasing their third full-length album.
We’d like to welcome FÖRBITTRING (BE) and VVORSE (FI) to the Genet family. These two extremely talented bands will surely impress many ears out there. The fab CIRCLE (BE) haven’t been around as a band for a while, but we’d like to honour them with a vinyl release of the 5-song CD Genet did for them ages ago.
2022 marks the 30th anniversary of Genet Records. To celebrate we are organising an event in Vort’n Vis in Ieper on Saturday 29 October.
Welcome to the brand-new Genet website!! It must have been about 15 years since we last had an official website, damn!! We’re very happy with the result so far. A website is never finished obviously. We have huge amounts of content we want to add. Thanks to Chloë for taking the lead here.
