VITAMIN X
Dutch hardcore punk thrash veterans who have been tearing it up worldwide and releasing classic records for almost three decades. This show celebrates the release of their brand-new album Ride the Apocalypse on Svart Records — already hailed as the band’s most intense and ambitious release to date. Expect fast, catchy and explosive hardcore punk crossover packed with killer riffs and all kinds of cool influences.

NÂO
Hard-hitting, female-fronted international d-beat hardcore punk based in Bremen, Germany. Heavily influenced by classic 1980s Finnish, Scandinavian and Brazilian hardcore. Think Riistetyt, Totalitär, or early Ratos de Porão — but with a wild and furious female vocal attack leading the charge. Raw, angry and impossible to ignore.

TAIFUN
Burning Spirit–style Japanese hardcore… played by our German neighbors from the Ruhrpott area. Featuring members of Bombenalarm, Burial, and Doomtown. Imagine Japanese maniacs from Death Side playing unreleased G.I.S.M. songs after a full day of moshing to Lip Cream, surrounded by a massive Septic Death record collection. Loud, fast, and gloriously unhinged.

CONTROLLED ILLUSION
Rising from the ashes of their previous band Blind Ambition, Controlled Illusion deliver a unique mix of ’77 punk and early ’80s hardcore, packed with melody, hooks and powerful female vocals. If you love bands like The Avengers, X-Ray Spex, Legal Weapon, Zero Boys or Minor Threat, this one will remind you exactly why you fell in love with punk in the first place.
