Geishas Of Doom (G.O.D.), the masters of chaos in the Dutch underground, dedicate their latest album to Jur Scherpenzeel, the man behind the iconic Amsterdam blues venue Maloe Melo – described by the band as “one of the last men standing in the Dutch cultural live scene,”
Jur has been a pillar of the community —just like G.O.D. themselves. While some might say G.O.D. represents the last of a dying breed, I’d rather view them as role models. They, along with figures like Jur, are proof that the underground scene isn’t dead — it’s alive and kicking, and a welcoming place for anyone who wants to contribute. Their passion shows that whether you’re playing in a band, booking gigs, or just sharing music, there’s always room to make a difference.
But let’s get back to the music. Jur is a wild, psychedelic hardcore album filled with raw energy and love for the craft. It’s got 9 intense tracks, capped by a final song longer than the rest of the album combined. If you’re looking for an album to lose yourself in, this is it. Check it out, and if you can, catch them live. As the band themselves say: “GOD is love, and JUR forever.”
