Plantage Dok homies Dishes’ first full length album ‘Drama’ is out on vinyl on April 2nd!
Dishes is a melodic punk quintet based in Amsterdam. Since their formation in 2021, they’ve been honing their own particular take on a genre which feels both contemporary and ageless. The melodies stick and the lyrics punch up in a way that feels relevant to how the world looks today.
‘Drama’ is their debut full length album: 10 tracks of driving, anthemic and wistful indie powerpoppunk out on Subroutine records.
‘Drama’ is a soundtrack for these strange, dark times filled with endless newsfeeds. As we keep scrolling and our consensus-reality dissolves around us, Dishes reminds us: we can only get through this together; what we need is community, connection, and self-organization.
Support for this album release show comes from the lovely weird hardcore punk crew M.U.G. from Rotterdam!
Come early to eat a 2 course vegan meal by Chef Lips.

Opening of the monthly exhibition Hidden Faces by Viktor Lantosh
A debut exhibition revealing the unseen characters living in our everyday surroundings Amsterdam-based emerging photographer Viktor Lantosh is set to launch his first-ever exhibition this April, presenting a captivating visual project titled “Hidden Faces”. Through this series, Viktor invites viewers into a world where ordinary objects and architectural details quietly shape emotions, personas, and expressions—faces that remain invisible until someone looks closely enough to notice them.
A photographer shaped by personal transformation
Viktor rediscovered photography after a long hiatus of roughly 15 years in February 2025, in the midst of a profound personal shift. After deciding to quit smoking—an act that he describes as regaining his “inner freedom” —he began to experience the world around him with renewed clarity. He experienced creative awakening: he found himself drawn to the subtle beauty of everyday life, especially the blooming plants that, for him, symbolized rebirth and the cyclical resilience of nature. This moment marked the first spark of what would later become his artistic voice. From there, Viktor naturally gravitated toward street photography, architectural compositions, and travel imagery, focusing especially on:
“Motion & emotion” in street scenes, capturing human–human and human–animal interactions
The interplay between architecture and nature, unusual structural details, and visual rhythms
Atmospheric cityscapes and story-filled travel moments.
About the “Hidden Faces” project
“Hidden Faces” is the result of roughly one year of photographic exploration across Amsterdam and beyond. The series reveals how non-living objects can form expressive “faces” that seem to watch over the city. Viktor hopes attendees will approach the exhibition with curiosity—open to discovering something playful, unexpected, even whimsical in their everyday urban environment: “I want people to step out of their daily routines and look at their city with fresh eyes. The buildings and objects around and look at their city with fresh eyes. The buildings and objects around us hold stories… all we need is a moment of attention to see them.”
Newspaper Feature – HET PAROOL
Alongside this exhibition, the complete series of “Hidden Faces” will also appear in the print edition of HET PAROOL on 7 April 2026, bringing the project to a broader public audience.
