Nashville band Snõõper brings a healthy dose of madness and fun to today's punk scene with compact musical bangers that rarely last much more than a minute, but are often accompanied on stage by wacky props, choreography and other theatrics.

Snõõper's concerts have earned them a reputation as a highly entertaining live band, delivering a feast of bizarre antics and energetic art punk. Fortunately, they're also capable of delivering strong songs, as they proved on their debut album Super Snõõõper, released in 2023 on Jack White's Third Man label.

"The sonic equivalent of a fidgety kid spilling toys from a toy box" wrote Stereogum in a rave review, praising the album's manic ride through "garage rock, surf rock, alien synths, drum 'n' bass, field recordings, and samples lifted from a bodybuilding competition".

It's easy to lose your breath when you're at a Snõõper concert, but it's also hard not to leave with a big smile on your face, and the Nashville punks will undoubtedly deliver a solid party that you'll rarely forget when they perform at Roskilde.
