Chopper

Chopper is the playfully dark and danceable project of Danish artist Jonatan K. Magnussen. A tragic pop idol caught between glamour and decay, he operates within a feverish blend of post-punk, industrial glam and disco noir. Known for theatrical live shows and striking visuals, Chopper transforms the stage into something between a rock concert and a fever dream in a charged mix of beauty, chaos, and confession.

Over the past few years, he and his band The Gang of Chopz have toured across Europe, sold out shows in Denmark, and garnered international coverage from outlets including Post-Punk.com, Gonzai and Zero Mag, earning a reputation as one of Scandinavia’s most distinctive underground acts.

In summer 2026, Chopper closed COPENHELL as the festival's final act on the Gehenna stage, in the biggest and most extreme show in the project's history to date. Now he's taking that same level of chaos, theatre, and physical force with him to 1000FRYD on 11/12.
