Dublin-based 3 piece Bucket seemingly appeared from nowhere with a tape-exclusive debut album in the latter half 2021; breeding the DIY ethics of garage and punk rock, soon endowing a reputation for their sweaty live shows. The band’s debut headline saw them sell out The Workman’s Club, soon playing an array of wall-to-wall DIY shows across Ireland.
Soon embracing elements of noise rock, hardcore and industrial to forge a unique and shockingly abrasive sound – Bucket are often referred to as the loudest band in Ireland, a reputation earned by the band’s aim to test the limits of volume and intensity, delivering a punishing live show.
Most recently, the band released the sophomore EP ‘Mosaic’ alongside performances supporting Knocked Loose, & at festivals across Europe and the U.S., including ESNS (NL), New Colossus (NYC, USA), Supersonic Block Party (Paris, FR), and Primavera Pro (Barcelona, ES).
“(Bucket) should come with a warning label.”
– Nathan Shepard, BBC 6Music
“The loudest band I’ve seen in 40 years of gig-going. You’ll be hearing more from them, like it or not.”
– Paul Brannigan, Louder / Metal Hammer
“Thundering and bleak – teeth-grinding bass distortion and relentless power… among the most pummelling and progressive noise-rock acts right now.”
– AL Noonan, DIY Magazine
