Some collaborations just make sense...Today we're joining forces with MACHUKHA
A NEW COLLABORATION: We’re incredibly excited to announce that MACHUKHA and Lay Bare Recordings are joining forces.
Hailing from Berlin, MACHUKHA create something that refuses to sit neatly inside a genre: visceral post-black metal colliding with dark hardcore and punk, delivered with an intensity that feels less like a performance and more like an emotional confrontation. Their music is rooted in the experience of trying to retain humanity in a harsh and fractured world. With Natalya singing exclusively in Ukrainian, every scream, every silence and every shift in atmosphere carries weight. Their debut Mochari was one of those records that immediately made us stop and listen. It's raw, uncompromising and deeply alive. (Machukha)
And if you’ve witnessed MACHUKHA live, you know. The room changes and the intensity is palpable. Their Roadburn 2026 performance even had the Hall of Fame overflowing, with the band being hailed as one of the festival’s revelations. (Rocking)
This is exactly the kind of music Lay Bare exists for. No boxes or formulas. Just music with something to say. We’re honoured to be part of what comes next. Welcome to the Lay Bare family, MACHUKHA.
