Arbeid Adelt!

Arbeid Adelt! is a Belgian band formed in the early 1980s, known for their quirky, experimental, and often humorous take on new wave and synthpop. The band name translates to "Labour Ennobles", a tongue-in-cheek nod to bourgeois work ethics. One of the core members is Marcel Vanthilt, a well-known Belgian media personality who, in the nineties, became an MTV host. Fast forward to 2025, and Marcel is still the driving force behind this mad post-punk combo.

The exclamation mark in the band name is no accident—so when we were asked to design their latest release, "Herrie2025", we went full-on bold propaganda. "Herrie" means loud and disruptive noise, so the artwork reflects exactly that. Stirring up some good old-fashioned uproar.
