Future Old People Are Wizards, often abbreviated as FOPAW, is a Belgian band known for their potent blend of stoner rock, metal, and psychedelic music. The group was formed in Ghent by Stijn Vanmarsenille (guitar and vocals), Sylvester Vanborm (bass guitar), and Piet Dierickx (drums) in the early 2010s. FOPAW quickly buried themselves in exploring the sonic realms, carving out a niche for music that frequently defies strict genre boundaries.
Their discography reflects an evolutionary journey, showcasing an experimental and progressive approach to music-making. Starting with the release of 'Faux Paw' in 2014, which introduced their innovative merging of sludgy riffs and surreal soundscapes, the band continued to evolve with 'Man with Bricks' in 2015, further solidifying their sound. 'M,' released in 2018, presented a more refined synthesis of their prior work—melding aggressive tones with atmospheric expanses, creating a dynamic and captivating experience for the listener. The band's most recent release, 'Peaces' in 2019, continues their voyage into the unconventional, setting them apart as true sonic alchemists within the contemporary music scene. Future Old People Are Wizards remain prominent figures in the underground rock scene, celebrated for their creativity, their knack for powerful live performances, and their ever-unpredictable musical escapades.
