Dutch indie rock outfit Voicst formed in 2001 around the talents of vocalist/guitarist Tjeerd Bomhof, bassist/vocalist Sven Woodside, and drummer Joppe Molenaar.

Hailing from the city of Amsterdam, the trio got together for a short time in 1994 as a school act, but it wasn’t until the 21st century that they became a proper band. Voicst, whose high-energy guitar-driven sound has been compared favorably to artists like Supergrass and Nada Surf, released their debut album, 11-11, in 2004 on Dutch label Duurtlang Records. The album was released in the United States the following year, as well as in Japan and Australia.

The band’s sophomore effort, A Tale of Two Devils, arrived in 2008 on Play It Again Sam/Goodbusy Records.
