Rough Trade Recommends: Bathing Suits + Omertà + Kiosk
Rough Trade's monthly new music showcase returns with up-and-coming acts in the alternative scene at Rough Trade East on 16/09/2026 at 18h.
Bathing Suits
Bathing Suits are surging into clubland armed with a battery of abrasive guitars and pummelling techno. Drawing as much from the frenetic energy of contemporary post-punk acts like Model/Actriz and Psychotic Monks as from the raunchy sensibilities of early 2010s pop, their debut EP Kill Bathing Suits is released via Underplay Recordings.
Across the five tracks, recorded and produced by Benny Howell, aka Leeds/Berlin DJ and producer DJ Subaru, the four-piece move through noise-trance club in 7 minute track Empathy, snarling big beats, basslines and battering feedback in break-out single I Can Be A Freak and four to the floor tracks in single Swan Princess. Speaking on the track, vocalist and live drum machine operator Freyja Blevins adds: “Swan Princess was one of the songs that we had written earlier last year, it was supposed to be a sort of dancey but still punky track, something that fit well into our live set. At the time I was quite inspired by a lot of what Model/Actriz were coming out with.”
Omertà
Omertà are a noise rock outfit from London, founded in the summer of ‘66 after all meeting at a naked barbecue. They have become known for their unserious stage antics and volatile outbursts in the name of hot sweaty love.
KiosK
Leeds-based duo Kiosk make electro influenced by the city's diverse DIY scene. Their sound shifts between post-punk inflected dance beats, dreamy soundscapes and pounding techno noise, combining drum machines and synths with effects-heavy bass.
