Savage Grace
1981 style speedmetal pioneers back on track with an amazing new album after 37 years! The new album contains a message of hope for all of you in these desperate times all packaged in the best artwork we have seen since a long time!
Confess
Groove/ thrash metal band originally from Iran now living in Norway after facing charges in Iran for their music, in which they expressed anti-religious and anti-government views. In 2015 both members where held in solitary confinement. At that time they potentially faced execution after being charged with blasphemy for writing Satanic music.
Schmisfits
Horror punk. Local heroes playing Danzig era misfits songs! We're closing the festival with the Schmisfits in the cafe 100% sing-a-long fähig.
Mindwar
Flag-bearers of the European hardcore movement. Their debut album “Still At War” came out last year after the band played with a lot of legendary names in the scene. Straightforward DIY hardcore played with passion and intensity. See these guys from Lokeren Belgium in Willemeen before all the big festivals this summer.
Wasted Youth Club
Explosive, energetic and fueled with sweat and fuzz is what creates the Party Garage sound of the Dutch band Wasted Youth Club. Wasted Youth Club finds inspiration in surviving in the 21st century as four idiots in their quarter-life crisis and from bands such as Fidlar, Thee Oh Sees and Wine Lips. Take a listen and let your neighbors enjoy it too!
Megalomaniacs
Exiting new local hardcore band with former members from local bands.
Oltas
Doom/death/drone band from up north, slow and dark but also fast and fierce. Making quite a name for themselves lately.
Bloodsucker
Hardcore/ thrash from Fryslân formerly known as Vexation. For fans of Powertrip and inspired by stuff like Cro-Mags, Leeway, and Anthrax. Old school hardcore/punk. Bloodsucker members were formally active in Cornered, Coldblooded en Icepick. Check out their EP.
**Mouflon **
Slow death metal from Arnhem after different releases and their latest very well recieved album om Raw skulls records (9/10 in Aardschok magazine) and a very recent split EP Grim Fate. For all of you who are into Dripping Doom Death and Decay be sure to check this band out.
Obnoxious
Thrash band hailing from Arnhem characterized by their energetic riffs, crushing grooves and melodic solo's. Since their formation in 2020 the quartet has drawn inspiration from all over the scene from modern metal to classic rock.
