Library Card

In the summer of 2021, Library Card emerged from a close friendship within the vibrant music scene of Rotterdam. Since then, Library Card has navigated the balance between expressive and contemplative, cultivating a dynamic and intense sound that alternates between discordant and suddenly melodious. The band delivers a blend of nervous and elusive post-punk, where bursts of unexpectedly grand post-rock are ever-present. Quitz, Kalkman, and Karayalçin provide the foundation for Lot van Teylingen’s sardonic spoken word, which is increasingly transforming into captivating storytelling. It’s striking how the band resonates with the contemporary, but in a way that remains authentic and entirely their own.
