Pol Biography
THE NEW POL SINGLE ‘THE CHAMELEON’ IS OUT NOW AND AVAILABLE ON ALL DIGITAL STREAMING PLATFORMS. POST-PUNK.COM STATED, “THE CHAMELEON, SLITHERS INTO EXISTENCE WITH A STRICT MECHANICAL SYMMETRY, EACH SYNTHETIC PULSE IGNITING LIKE A FLICKERING NEON SIGN IN A DESERTED METROPOLIS. THE BEAT SETTLES INTO A HYPNOTIC GROOVE, AS ANGULAR GUITAR PHRASES STRIKE THROUGH THE STERILE ATMOSPHERE.”
DUTCH SIBLINGS RUBEN POL AND MATTHIJS POL ARE BRINGING BACK NEW WAVE IN 2025. THEY FIND THEMSELVES HOOKED TO THE FREQUENCY AND UNIQUE ALLURE OF THE GENRE. IT NOT ONLY ECHOES THE BROTHERS' CREATIVE IDEALS BUT ALSO CHANNELS THE EXHILARATION THEY EXPERIENCE IN THEIR FASHION ENDEAVOURS, TRANSMUTING IT INTO DIVERSE AND COMPELLING FORMS OF EXPRESSION THAT GO BEYOND MUSIC.
AFTER INTRODUCING A SERIES OF CAPTIVATING SINGLES, POL RELEASED THEIR SELF-TITLED FIRST EP IN AUGUST 2023. IT MARKED THE LAUNCH OF THEIR FIRST COHESIVE BODY OF WORK, INCLUDING TRACKS AS ‘BOYS ARE’ AND ‘L’AMOUR FAIT MAL’. THE COLLECTION OF SONGS ARE ALL WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY RUBEN AND MATTHIJS, MIXING ON CERTAIN TRACKS IS DONE BY DAVE BASCOMBE (DEPECHE MODE, TEARS FOR FEARS, ERASURE) AND THE BROTHERS THEMSELVES. IT SOLIDIFIED THEIR REPUTATION FOR BRINGING BACK AN ANALOG-DRIVEN SOUND.
IN JANUARY 2024 POL PLAYED THEIR FIRST HEADLINE SHOW IN BITTERZOET, AMSTERDAM. THE SOLD OUT SHOW WAS RATED 4/5 BY DE VOLKSKRANT. BAND MEMBER OF VISAGE (LOGAN SKY) JOINED POL ON STAGE TO PERFORM TWO SONGS AS AN ODE TO THEIR COLLECTIVE LOVE FOR NEW WAVE AND THE INSPIRATION THEY DRAW FROM THE NEW ROMANTIC MOVEMENT.
AFTER ALSO BEING FEATURED IN TROUW, POL PERFORMED AT EUROSONIC NOORDERSLAG 2024 AS A 'MUST-SEE PROMISING ACT'. 3VOOR12 RANKED THEIR ESNS PERFORMANCE AS #9 OUT OF THE 100+ ACTS THAT PERFORMED AT THE FESTIVAL. LATE 2024, THEY WENT ON THEIR FIRST EUROPEAN TOUR, SELLING OUT THEIR SHOWS IN THE NETHERLANDS, GERMANY, FRANCE, BELGIUM AND SPAIN.
BESIDES MUSIC, RUBEN AND MATTHIJS BOTH RESONATE STRONGLY WITH THE HIGH-FASHION INDUSTRY, MODELING FOR VARIOUS FASHION HOUSES (SAINT LAURENT, GUCCI, FENDI, VALENTINO, DIOR, TO NAME A FEW) AS WELL AS PRODUCING MUSIC FOR SOME.
