In 1994 dEUS, a band from Antwerp, drastically changed the Belgian rock landscape with their album Worst Case Scenario. That same year they played their “instant classics” Suds & Soda and Hotellounge (be
the death of me) at the Pukkelpop Marquee for the first time.
Two years and a few line-up changes later they exclusively presented their second album, In a Bar, under the Sea, during a grandiose gig on the same Marquee stage.

In 2004 dEUS’s lame performance on the Pukkelpop main stage triggered some radical changes within the group. After some drastic line-up changes, the band hit back hard with Pocket revolution and last year’s Vantage Point. There is no doubt that bands such as dEUS only thrive within a Marquee environment. That is why the group came up with the absolutely brilliant idea to play the final Marquee slot at Pukkelpop 2009 not just one night but two nights in a row.

We have the group’s solemn promise that each show will be completely different. More info later. The two Pukkelpop 2009 shows are the only gigs the band will play in 2009.
In the meantime dEUS is in the studio, working hard to finish the successor to Vantage Point.
So my dear friends, Sugar Sugar in your lives (ⓒ John Fogerty) for two successive days.
And what’s more, Tom Barman has promised to play a steaming Magnus set in the Boiler Room with a great mate of his, CJ Bolland.
