Australia’s Schkeuditzer Kreuz is about to embark on their second tour across Europe from September to October 2025, in support of the third album, Swan Grinder (August 2025). Live dates are currently booked through Central Europe, South Caucasus, Spain, and UK, with more to be confirmed. Variously termed “Industrial Synth Crust”, “D-beat Raw Synth Punk”, and “One human and some machines making noise, in the face of it all”, Schkeuditzer Kreuz is a mutant post-apocalyptic hybrid: an intersection between harsh, confronting, mechanical noise and the comparatively raw, organic materials of hardcore, crust, and d-beat punk. It is a noise wrought from the anguish and despair of Antipodean punk veteran Kieren Hills, from a cabin that he built in the Blue Mountains of New South Wales, Australia.
