Gavial

Gavial is a **Dresden, Germany-based psychedelic blues/post-rock band** that kicked off nearly 15 years ago as a project spun from a Nirvana song pun called “Two Red Boys,” later evolving into Tourette Boys with three albums before rebranding to Gavial. The current lineup features **Benjamin Butter** on vocals and guitar (who also handles mixing), **Conrad Brod** on drums, **Paul Kollascheck** on bass, and **Paul-Willy Stoyan** on guitar, delivering heavy, mind-bending sounds influenced by the world's chaos.

They've been dropping killer releases like the 2023 album *VOR* (with tracks including "Circles, Pt. 1") and their latest, *Thanks, I Hate It* out January 23, 2026, via Exile On Mainstream Records—tracks like "Control" and "Koru Mindset" capture that raw, genre-blending vibe recorded in their own studio. Catch them live at spots like Blue Moon Winterfest if you're in Germany!
