Psykup, 7 Weeks

On October 14, 2026, at La Coopérative de Mai in Clermont-Ferrand, Psykup and 7 Weeks share the bill for a show that plays on contrasts and tensions.

Psykup. A Toulouse-based band of mutant metal, the quintet condenses raw energy and finely honed melodies, blending—without hesitation—hardcore, jazz, funk, death, pop and thrash. On stage, sharp riffs, rhythmic fractures and a taste for subversion shape a controlled chaos that is at once wild and accessible. The experience remains true to the band’s DNA: free, playful and often iconoclastic, it upends conventions and looks back with clear-sightedness and humour, celebrating nearly thirty years of creative turbulence.

7 Weeks. With their tenth album to date, Going Back Home opens a new chapter. Produced by Adrian Bushby (Foo Fighters, Muse) and recorded between London and Birmingham, the record asserts a clear, frontal sound, refocused on the essentials. A return to heavy rock foundations, efficient structures and an unadorned tone: the trio claims the legacy of Anglo‑Saxon power trios, with concise songwriting that gets straight to the point. On stage, this stripped-down approach translates into sustained tension and a group dynamic marked by direct, immediate interplay.
