FRIDAY • 13. June
Bands in alphabetic order, A-Z =/= running order

Hamburg
Bardowick
Punk with a little country edge sometimes, sweet back-ups included, basically demands you to sing along to, anthemic, right? Right!

Bielefeld • Dirtcult records
Dead Years
Post-Punk on the darker side with a healthy dose of melancholy.
FFO: HYSTERESE, TERRIBLE FEELINGS, FERAL TRASH

Vienna / Austria • Noise Appeal Records
Dirty Talons
80'ies metal and rock and punk united with way better lyrics than any of those three, blast beats and screams added for good measure.
FFO: SHEER MAG, THIN LIZZY with blastbeats

Berlin • It's Eleven Records
Fotokiller
Amazing soundtrack for gloomy nights and moody train rides.
FFO: SOFT KILL, HOUSE OF HARM, TRUE FAITH

Hamburg • SBÄM
Holly Would Surrender
Melodic pop punk with that signature sound you all love: big guitars, anthemic songs and sing alongs galore.
FFO: BLINK 182, MILLENCOLIN, ZEBRAHEAD

Lund / Sweden • La Agonía de Vivir Records
SATANIC SURFERS
The tougher MILLENCOLIN, and remember: don't skate on their ramp!
FFO: Satanism, Surfing, Cheap Shots

Athens / USA • Gunner Records
SHEHEHE
70'ies punk meets glam rock meets hardrock, very much doing their own thing and puttin' their hearts and souls into it – I know you're gonna dig this.
FFO: GO-GOs, RAMONES, SWEET

Winston Salem / USA • Gunner Records
WOLVESX4
Somewhere between punk, inide and emo you'll find wolvesx4, melancholy but warm, slower and faster and playful and direct.
FFO: WET WET WET, DURAN DURAN, THE THE

SNAG A TICKET?
There are weekend passes only.
No day passes (maybe later), no guestlist.
SATURDAY • 14. JUNE
Alright, alright, ready for day two? Here we go, here we go, here we goooo

BIELEFELD • NOT SORRY RECORDS
EATEN BY SNAKES
Punk pop with an 80'ies note via the ever present synths; pulsating drums and sweet vocals make this a no brainer.
FFO: CLOUDS NOTHING, THERMALS, HOMEFRONT

VICENZA/ ITALY
JAGUERO
Emo punk, indie punk, post punk, a bit of melancholy, a guitar with „that“ 80'ies sound, drums and bass driving and vocals that sometimes border on screams.
FFO: WAYS AWAY, CAPTAIN WE'RE SINKING, POLAR BEAR CLUB

Hamburg
KOBRA KIDZ
Located somewhere in the love triangle between skate punk, German punk, and pop punk, but always with clearly recognizable roots in the '90s.
FFO: LOST LYRICS, TERRORGRUPPE, LAGWAGON

NUREMBERG
THE LOVEBITES
Bay area punk of the old school persuasion, best consumed in a sweaty room packed with your best friends to sing along to.
FFO: THE VAPIDS, THE DONNAS, CLEVELAND BOUND DEATH SENTENCE

HAMBURG
MUTTNICKS
Never a dry throat in the house when these guys play live, serious songs accompanied by silly on stage banter and vice versa.
FFO: HAGFISH, SCHLEPROCK, RHYTHM COLLISION

DARMSTADT
OFFCELL
Post punk, discordant and melodic guitar chords chase desperate vocals while the drums and bass churn out memorable rhythms, dark yet positive if that makes sense.
FFO: THE CASKET LOTTERY, DRIVE LIKE JEHU, FUGAZI

Lyon / France • Adagio830 Records
Sport
You can call this emo punk and be not too far off, but don't forget the a huge dose of sugary sweet pop sensibilities, puttin' the pop back in emo punk!
FFO: THE PROMISE RING meets RVIVR

Hamburg • Not Sorry Records
True Gloom
A few friends come together and suddenly there is a new band with a certain life of its own, something that is more than the sum of its parts.
FFO: BARS, HOPE CON, SWEAT

COLOGNE • NOT SORRY RECORDS
WASTED YEARS
Emo? Punk? Emo punk? 90'ies vibes with a personal twist and lots of hands in the air moments, sing alongs included and heavily advised.
FFO: TILT, SAMIAM, BABY GOPAL

HONGKONG
WELLSAID
Emo of the purest kind, like way back when you had to have a backpack at the show, guitar lines all over the place, bass and drums not holding back either, enjoy!
FFO: AMERICAN FOOTBALL, BOYS LIFE, ALGERNON CADWALLADER

NUREMBERG • INHUMANO RECORDS
WORST ADVICE
Pop punk with gruffy vocals – what are you waiting for? Fits in the air, sing along and dance the night away.
FFO: LATTERMAN, THE HOLY MESS, AMERICAN STEEL
SUNDAY • 15. JUNE
One more day.
A boat ride with two bands (until 16:00h) + two acoustic sets at Überquell afterwards (until 18:30h).

FFO: WEAKERTHANS, BOYGENIUS, SHITNEY BEERS

Melbourne / Australia
Press Club
CAMP COPE even punkier? AVENGERS 2025? post-hardcore indie punk rock alternative … or sth. definetly from Australia, weirdly no mullets though, you know 'em, you love 'm and they're gonna rock the boat, baby … hell yeah!
FFO: Bands on boats, seperate houses, suburbs

Hamburg • Not Sorry Records
Shellycoat
Certainly, a band read as "punk" will be asked, "is this still punk?!" but: absolute indifference to these expectations – that’s kind of punk too, isn’t it?
FFO: SAMIAM, AFI, THE ATARIS

ONE MORE
TBA
One more acoustic set, still pending, we will keep you posted :-*
