Popunie Unplugged #1: No Screaming At Pigeons, thrilled and Fellatio

Three Rotterdam alternative bands swap their usual amplified sound for something more intimate at Popunie Unplugged #1 on Wednesday 4 November 2026. Taking place at de Doelen during Rotterdamse Popweek, this special concert features No Screaming At Pigeons, thrilled and Fellatio performing semi-acoustic versions of their music.

Inspired by the legendary unplugged sessions of the 1990s, the evening offers an opportunity to hear familiar sounds in an unfamiliar setting. Instead of walls of distortion and powerful amplification, the musicians explore the melodies, rhythms and songwriting beneath their usual arrangements.

Three Rotterdam bands, three different sounds

No Screaming At Pigeons bring their raw and experimental approach to punk, combining expressive vocals with tribal rhythms and an unpredictable stage presence. Having previously performed at venues including Roodkapje and WORM, the band will explore a more restrained side of their music.

Rotterdam shoegaze outfit thrilled combine atmospheric guitars with influences from grunge and post-hardcore. Following performances at Left of the Dial and support slots for bands including Ride, they released their EP no one for miles in 2026.

Completing the line-up are Fellatio, a Rotterdam trio whose music moves between disco, punk and krautrock. Known for their energetic performances at festivals including Motel Mozaïque and Left of the Dial, the group will reinterpret their danceable, experimental sound in a semi-acoustic format.
