ICEAGE
24th February 2027

Iceage is a Danish punk rock band formed in Copenhagen in 2008, consisting of vocalist and guitarist Elias Bender Rønnenfelt, guitarist Johan Suurballe Wieth, bassist Jakob Tvilling Pless, drummer Dan Kjær Nielsen, and guitarist Casper Morilla (since 2019). The group emerged from the local punk scene as teenagers, debuting with the abrasive self-titled EP in 2009 and their full-length album New Brigade in 2011, which captured their chaotic live energy and influences from bands like Joy Division through raw, high-speed tracks recorded in minimal takes. Over their career, Iceage has released five studio albums, signing with Matador Records in 2012 ahead of their sophomore effort You’re Nothing (2013), which introduced more dynamic melodies and elements like piano while retaining punk aggression. Subsequent works, including Plowing into the Field of Love (2014), Beyondless (2018), and Seek Shelter (2021)—the latter produced by Sonic Boom of Spacemen 3—showcased an evolution toward sophisticated arrangements incorporating horns, keyboards, acoustic guitars, and atmospheric textures, blending post-punk, indie rock, and experimental elements. In 2022, they issued the rarities compilation Shake the Feeling: Outtakes & Rarities 2015-2021, and the band remains active, with live performances featuring new material as recently as 2024.
