Ego Dreams - LP Release Show

It’s always a crisis at Ego Dreams. No money, collapsing relationships, receding hairlines—the garage punks from Amersfoort have enough material to fill an album, so they did exactly that. After two EPs, the recipe for their self-titled debut Ego Dreams remains unchanged: every song was written in under fifteen minutes, almost none last longer than two minutes, and the whole thing channels the spirit of Fidlar, Descendents, Bad Nerves, and a massive shot of raw energy.

Joris Postulart (guitar/vocals), Arthur van Vliet (bass/vocals), and Thom Heusinkveld (drums) have been unleashing that energy on stages across the Netherlands since 2015. Ego Dreams has torn through Sleazefest, Popronde, and Club 3voor12, played everything from the legendary Vera to the sleaziest underground venues, and gave their new LP its live premiere to a packed Paardcafé at Sniester 2025. Twenty songs in half an hour—an Ego Dreams show is a sprint, not a marathon.
