Get ready for a hefty dose of “pure love in its most aggressive form,” because hardcore punks State Power are coming in hot with their debut album Hyperstition and they are no less pissed off than before. In their first two years, this relentlessly loud and insanely fast hardcore punk band has proven that their thrashy, hook-laden sound takes no prisoners. With two critically acclaimed EPs and a packed run of festival appearances, including two legendary performances at Jera On Air, State Power have wasted no time spreading their subversive message. Now, with Hyperstition, they are setting their sights on something bigger.

Stuttgart hardcore outfit MINUS YOUTH have been an underground staple since 2016, known for explosive, high-energy shows. On their new album Lines Crossed, the band tackles toxic masculinity and other personal and societal issues, while standing firmly in solidarity with marginalized communities. Expect urgent, groove-driven hardcore from a band that remains proudly DIY.
