ROSA CRUX + MALEFIXIO + GAOUTA @ Setmana Santa 2026

XXXI-XIII presents: a warm-up show for the SETMANA SANTA 2026 festival. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ROSA CRUX † MALEFIXIO † GAOUTA @ Le Rex de Toulouse 12/2/2026 ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 🔹 ROSA CRUX (goth, deathrock, dark ritual / FR)

“Pure goth.” (Orkus!) “...a total audiovisual art work oscillating between sacred ritual and post-industrial darkness.” (Monkeypress)

After more than 40 years of existence, Rosa†Crvx achieved from the very beginning what many strive for in vain: forging a unique artistic identity and creating an authentic, incomparable universe. This is undoubtedly due to the fact that Rosa†Crvx has always been much more than just a band. It is a complex artistic project in which Olivier Tarabo, its main creator, and Claude Feeny fashioned a singular cosmos in their hometown of Rouen. Liturgical sounds, rock music, performing arts, and apocalyptic visions merge into an immersive experience, turning every concert into a breathtaking spectacle.

The band has designed its own instruments, and their impressive carillon is one of the most spectacular elements of their performances. There, their famous animated metal percussionist skeletons play live, holding drumsticks operated by electromagnets, all driven by a MIDI program! It must be seen, I assure you—a true work of gothic art!

This invention even earned Olivier Tarabo an award in 2001. Body techniques inspired by archaic societies also hold an essential place in Rosa†Crvx's aesthetic. Traditionally, every concert ends with the spectacular “Dance of the Earth,” a performance where earth, organic matter, and nudity become the elements of a multi-sensory ritual, in which the audience is invited to become part of a whole.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 🔹 MALEFIXIO (goth/deathrock, darkwave / ESP)

Malefixio was born in 2016 in Barcelona. This demonic trio plays an incantatory and visceral death rock, influenced by Christian Death or early Mephisto Walz, sung in Spanish by the divine Eva Palacio.

With their two dark, lingering albums featuring a delightfully old-school sound ("Culto a lo Invisible" in 2018 and "Magia Ceremonial" in 2022), as well as their ritualistic performances, the Spaniards have established themselves as a sure bet in the neo-batcave scene.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 🔹 GAOUTA (darkwave, emo-core / Morocco)

“Gaouta” is the one who has the final say. Armed with her drums, guitar, synths, voice, and computer, Gaouta is a determined composer who does it all by herself. A prominent figure in the Moroccan music scene, she skillfully blends the 80s rhythms and sounds of post-punk or new wave with Darija, the Arabic dialect she speaks every day. Her songs traverse toxic romances, patriarchal violence, and loss of bearings, all set within a slightly melancholic prom night or teenager's bedroom atmosphere. Her emo music is rebellious and unites everyone! We can't wait, and you?
