Whispering Sons is a post-punk band hailing from Brussels, Belgium, that has emerged as a compelling force within the genre's contemporary landscape. Formed in 2013, the ensemble originated in the small town of Houthalen before their distinct sound and intense live performances quickly carried them onto larger stages. The band consists of Fenne Kuppens (vocals), Kobe Lijnen (guitar), Sander Hermans (synthesizer), Tuur Vandeborne (bass), and Sander Pelsmaekers (drums), whose synergy crafts a brooding and atmospheric strain of post-punk that pays homage to the genre’s dark '80s heyday while infusing it with a modern, cutting-edge sensibility.

The outfit's sonorous signature is characterized by Kuppens' haunting vocals and a hypnotic blend of driving rhythms and shadowy guitar lines. Their discography, marked by a relentless exploration of personal and existential disquiet, has steadily gained recognition. The band's latest releases, such as the 2021 album "Several Others," which was followed by the accompanying "Several Others Remixed," stand testimony to their evolving sound and propelling influence in alternative music circles. The band has also garnered attention through their collaboration with noted acts such as Mogwai and IDLES, who provided mesmerizing remixes for the singles "Surface" and "Heat," respectively. With projects like "Tilt" and the double A-side "Satantango / Surgery," Whispering Sons continues to delve into the depths of their mesmerizing sonic world, securing their place as one of the most exciting acts in the revival of post-punk aesthetics.
