Ghent’s Maria Iskariot announce debut album Wereldwaan (World Delusion) and share new single ‘Witte Rook’ (‘White Smoke’).
Formed in 2022, Maria Iskariot is a Dutch-language punk band founded by frontwoman Helena Cazaerck and guitarist Loeke Vanhoutteghem. With the later additions of drummer Sybe Versluys and bassist Amanda Barbosa, the group evolved into a bold collective voice.
Maria Iskariot shares that ‘Witte Rook’ is “a victory for losers, an attempt at forgiveness, swallowing, biting in your own lip and saliva that tastes like iron.”
