TRAUMA is delighted to present Kolya Nemoï's first large-scale stage installation. His concert environment will be brought to life through performances by Show Me The Body, Ho99o9 and ZEENA. As a typical TRAUMA concert format, this approach encourages interdisciplinary dialogues and organically produces new collaborative works.<br>
Show Me The Body have developed a language all their own, fusing hardcore, noise, rap and banjo-driven rawness into a physical, stripped-down sound. Ho99o9 works in a similarly confrontational register, blending punk, hip-hop and horror aesthetics into performances that feel simultaneously chaotic, theatrical and deeply controlled. Our support band ZEENA, who have a legendary career in dark ambient ritual music, act as the 'calm before the storm' in this concert equation; blessing the room before chaos erupts in Nemoi's visual universe.
All four are connected, not by genre, but by intensity. They work with friction, distortion and menace, not as decoration, but as a way of capturing the world. What emerges is not just a concert with a stronger visual identity, but a temporary world created by all the participants together.
Show Me The Body<br>
Show Me The Body is a New York City-based hardcore trio consisting of Julian Cashwan Pratt (banjo, vocals), Harlan Steed (bass) and drummer Jackie McDermott. Since 2015, they have built a community-oriented presence through DIY spaces for NYC youth and later expanded globally through their CORPUS NYC platform, hybrid punk and hip-hop tours, and intense, ritualistic live performances.
Their album "Trouble the Water" represents nearly a decade of confronting the systemic indifference of the city while exploring themes of survival, chosen family, and collective transformation. Rooted in the spirit of the "New York Sound" - a collision of subcultures rather than a single genre - the album goes beyond 2019's "Dog Whistle". Pratt delivers his most poetic and profound lyrics to date, while Steed adds melody and structure to his experimental production. Together, they question and reshape their creative roles.
"Trouble the Water" rejects nostalgia and focuses on everyday acts of unity as a form of resistance and spiritual power. It is both a call to movement and a meditation on freedom within boundaries. Recorded at CORPUS Studios with producer Arthur Rizik, the album reflects their evolving identity.
Following 'Body War' (2016) and the acclaimed 'Dog Whistle', the band continues to expand their reach through touring, festivals and community building - redefining the boundaries of hardcore while maintaining a global network based on connectedness and autonomy.
Ho99o9<br>
Ho99o9 conjure an explosive sonic fusion that fuses hip-hop, hardcore, punk, metal, industrial and electronica into a chaotic, powerful force. The duo - Yeti Bones and theOGM - know no creative boundaries and create music that causes a sensation both on record and on stage. Over the years, they have built a loyal fan base through acclaimed releases, major collaborations and sold-out tours.
Their third album, "Tomorrow We Escape" (2025), marks a new chapter. The project focuses on emotional depth and personal struggles, shifting the focus from predominantly political themes to self-reflection. As Yeti Bones explains, the title reflects various forms of escape - mental health, addiction or difficult life circumstances - which are left to the listener's interpretation. For theOGM, the goal was to create songs that were more resonant and emotional without losing their edge.
Originally from New Jersey, the duo moved to Los Angeles over a decade ago and broke through in 2017 with their debut album 'United States of Horror', which was widely praised as uniquely uncompromising. Known for their explosive live performances, they have shared the stage with artists of various genres and have earned the respect of a wide creative circle. With continued critical acclaim and cultural influence, Ho99o9 remain a relentless and genre-bending presence.
ZEENA<br>
Zeena Schreck, known by her stage name ZEENA, is an interdisciplinary artist, musician and writer whose work explores the intersection of sound, image, ritual and esoteric practice. As someone with a unique background in magical practices and Tibetan Buddhism, she brings a rare depth of lived knowledge to her art.
ZEENA's musical career spans an evolution from the darkwave, industrial and post-punk of the 1980s to the frontiers of avant-garde sound art, dark ambient and ritual music. Their compositions unfold a liturgical, hypnotic attraction - they open thresholds to otherworldly states of consciousness. Using minimalist industrial textures, field recordings and electronic manipulation, interwoven with chants and mantras, she conjures up immersive soundscapes that feel at once meditative and eerie, intimate and far-reaching.
Kolya Nemoi<br>
Kolya Nemoi is a Ukrainian multidisciplinary artist whose work includes painting, tattooing, street art and fashion and whose roots lie in skate culture and graffiti art. He began his artistic career at the age of sixteen, and his early experiences - from painting in a studio overlooking a cemetery to hand-poking tattoos for friends - shaped his deeply intuitive and independent approach.
His work explores the psychological depths of the human condition, often manifesting in dark, surreal figures that blur the line between the visible and the hidden. Drawing on personal anxiety and unconscious introspection, Nemoi treats the canvas as a site of confrontation where emotion and ambiguity take precedence over formal precision.
At the heart of his practice is an ongoing dialog between media, with sketchbooks acting as a unifying element between disciplines. Through this fluid system, Nemoi constructs a unique, evolving universe - one that prioritizes mystery, emotional resonance and the invisible layers of human experience.
