HH: The DSM IV + Not Richard & Her Madjesty + sounds mint + Blitzer

Hidden Herd Presents: THE DSM IV, a Liverpool gothic alt-pop trio that fuses noise-rock, synth-pop and industrial electronics into something dark, visceral and distinctly their own. Their music is cacophonous yet melodic, built from dense textures, hypnotic synths, explosive guitars and infectious hooks, with thought-provoking lyrics that explore the ways our collective minds are shaped by mass media, entertainment and social media. Following a run of standalone singles and tours with notable bands, THE DSM IV released their uncompromising debut album ‘NEW AGE PARANOIA’ in 2023. The album weaves stories, beats, guitars and noise into a collection of sobering yet dreamlike songs about modern life, perception and the forces that shape it. Since then, THE DSM IV have released a new EP, ‘NEGATIVE UTOPIA’, and the singles ‘JUVENILE HERO’ and ‘KILLERS OF THE DREAM’, alongside extensive touring and appearances at various festivals. They will be performing alongside Not Richard & Her Madjesty, sounds mint, and Blitzer.
