About us
WETLOOK is a Vienna-based band with roots in Stockholm, Sweden, blending the futuristic aesthetics
of sci-fi and cyberpunk with a gritty, 90s indie rock vibe. Influenced by iconic acts like Depeche
Mode, Radiohead, The Hives, and Viagra Boys, WETLOOK crafts a unique sound they call “Space-indie
rock.” Heavy, dirty guitar riffs merge with classical instruments, creating an atmospheric experience
that’s equal parts dystopian and energetic.
Founded two years ago, WETLOOK has spent time honing their style, writing countless songs before
discovering the bold, cinematic universe that defines their music today. They draw inspiration from
black-and-white photography, heroin chic fashion, leather, white tank tops, and the cold long winters
of Scandinavia. Their work is also shaped by retro-futuristic architecture and the proximity to former
communist countries, reflecting a world both familiar and otherworldly.
This debut release marks a significant step for the band, who are confident their fusion of Depeche
Mode futurism, Radiohead-esque exploration, and sci-fi elements will resonate with listeners.
Philip is the catalyst of their creative process, constantly seeking melodies in everyday life, while
Daniel, a multi-instrumentalist, refines these ideas with clarity. Daniel has been writing songs since
he was 13 years old and has spent over a decade as the lead singer and composer in other musical
projects. He is known for his commanding presence and delivery during live performances, making a
strong impact on stage.
WETLOOK's mission is to inspire others to forge their own path, setting something free with each
track they release. As they carve out their place in the music world, they aim to bring a fresh, original
perspective to the scene, combining raw indie energy with futuristic, classical, and cyberpunk
elements.
