Arbeit Adelt! is a pioneering Belgian band known for their avant-garde blend of new wave, electro, and experimental pop. Formed in the early 1980s by Marcel Vanthilt and Jan Van Roelen, the group became a cult favorite in Belgium’s alternative scene for their eccentric lyrics, innovative use of synthesizers, and satirical edge. With hits like “Lekker Westers” and “De Dag Dat Het Zonlicht Niet Meer Scheen,” Arbeit Adelt! helped shape the sound of the Flemish new wave era, leaving a lasting influence on Belgium’s experimental music landscape.
