With an inspirational core in dark music pioneers, such as Skinny Puppy, Type O Negative, Front Line Assembly and Nitzer Ebb, Brooklyn's Hogwasche are here to wipe the slate clean. Employing goth rock's approach and imagery, Hogwasche mix their synth heavy attack with cold guitars, nodding to Ministry and Nine Inch Nails but creating their own unique blend: Metallic Body Music (MBM). The band's 'MBM' debut (self-released in 2016) was met with much critical appraise, and lead to sharing the stage with other genre benders like Youth Code.

Kicking off 2017 with new music, a new stage show, and much more, Hogwasche looks forward to a SXSW debut that will be unlike anything else you'll see at the festival.
