After brooding in the shadows of the Rust Belt and extensively touring for the last 5 years, SCIENCE MAN has mutated from John Toohill’s brainchild into a relentless, 10-armed, genre-bending monster. They set loose a blend of enigmatic hardcore punk that melts away the restraints, throwing you into their ever expanding distorted reality. Their latest LP, MONARCH JOY, is a chaotic, strange, and deceptively joyous blend of hardcore made for those who only wish to risk moving forward.

»Handys raus, Laptops raus, kommt alle raus - MORGEN TEUER TÖTEN macht Sommerschlussverkauf im Winter. Die Band schallt mit ihrem Debütalbum "Not Available" den alltäglichen Wahnsinn direkt in eure Ohren. Mit bissigen Songtexten stürzen sich Morgen Teuer Töten auf die belanglose Trendgesellschaft, bis diese schreiend vor der Supermarktkasse liegt. Versucht nicht sie zurückzuhalten: Sie müssen hier vorbei. Ihre Songs sind so ohrwurmverdächtig, dass man sie nach dem Konzert noch unter der Dusche mitgrölt – und so schamlos, dass sogar die Seife rot wird. Es gibt gute Musik, es gibt Scheißmusik und es gibt Morgen Teuer Töten.«

Ostpunk? Wasn das?

RE-AKTION (punk, potsdam) + KÜCHENSPIONE (punk,weimar)

Re-Aktion war eine der ersten Punkbands Potsdams. Gegründet wurde die Band 1985 von Herzi und Clemens und gelang schnell ins Visier der Staatssicherheit. Es folgten Vorladungen, Einschüchterungsversuche und 1988 die Verhaftung des Sängers.
2019 wurde auf Hörsturzproduktion eine LP mit Aufnahmen aus den Jahren 1987/1988 veröffentlicht. Und gelegentlich spielt die Band auch mal live gesielt in 3/4 der original-Besetzung.

Die Küchenspione wurde 1987 in Weimar gegründet und breiteten sich dort wie ein Pilzgeflecht aus. Unzählige Musikanten und Seitenprojekte entsprangen dieser Punkrock-Keimzelle, die bis heute aktiv ist und immer wieder mal irgendwo spielt.

London's heavy wild come to Schokoladen for their debut performance in Germany on April 28th to celebrate the release of new single 'Lonely Dawn'. The lo-fi/alt-rock projected fronted by Wolfgang Harte has carved out an exciting reputation for their dark and compelling live performances with headline shows last year in New York, Paris & London to support the release of their debut EP 'Death Dreams'.
 
Sonically, heavy wild's blend of fuzzy psych-rock, driving post-punk and lof-fi grunge has seen them join the likes of Ekkstacy, Current Joys and High School as a key name in the modern gothic/lo-fi scene of recent years. 

Dreampop und Shoegaze aus Berlin und Hamburg: Das Duo Garland verzaubert mit zwei Stimmen, feiner Gitarrenarbeit und geschmackvollen Synthesizer-Klängen. Schon der Name der Band - eine Referenz an das erste Album der Cocteau Twins - erinnert an die ätherischen Atmosphären der 90er zwischen Edelpop und New-Wave - ohne dabei die notwendige Härte vermissen zu lassen, ein Lärm, der sich etwa in einem Soundgefühl à la My Bloody Valentine ausdrückt.

A driving beat pushes Lolita Terrorist Sounds from a cool classic sound to a new strange world...” – T. Wydler (Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds)

“It reminds me of the best post-punk bands from the 70s...hotter than a frying pan,
sharper than a razor...” – Kristof Hahn (Swans, Pere Ubu)   

Formed in 2011, Telepathy is the creation of three Polish brothers: Piotr, Albert, and Krystian Turek, and English guitarist Richard Powley. Bringing a collision of musical influences from Tool, Deftones, and Vangelis to genres as diverse as synthwave and post-punk, it is the collective’s pervading love for film and movie scores that truly unites the band’s members under the Telepathy banner. Together, the four-piece quickly made a name for themselves through their instrumental balance of atypical tunings, found audio samples and joyride-like time signatures, conveying remarkably deep and dynamic narratives through their instruments alone.

Fargo is a german post-rock band from Leipzig, formed in 2012. They typically compose lengthy atmospheric instrumental pieces, featuring layers of effect-laden guitars and heavy usage of dynamics with traces of ambient.

Hailing from the slums of Los Kempos, Belgian three-piece ITCHES was awakened from cryogenic sleep paralysis in 2020, and has been on a bender ever since. The band’s sound is infused with cheap canned alcoholic beverages, resulting in a perfect blend of wild garage poppiness, 60s freakbeat, primal punk, and most of all, heavyweight jangle.

DIAMOND DOG's dystopian punk vibe began in 2020 and came to fruition with the full band in 2021.
The band flourishes in a hybrid identity on rhythmic, danceable tracks, propelled by synthetic textures where chorus and reverb reign supreme. The trio from Dijon, led by visceral lead vocals, expresses itself on stage through an incandescent atmosphere marked by the fury of the Cramps, the melodies of Liszt, and the aesthetics of Lynch.
Their debut album, Usual Chronicles, was released in March 2023 on the EMB Blanc and Wave Records labels. The band has already played more than 150 concerts across Europe and has just released their new 4-track EP, Throbs, in September 2025 on IcyCold Records.

„Zur Brache" is a postpunk-trio from Berlin. energetic drums, melodic bass & heavy riffs are essential to their sound"

Muttis Lieblinge are back after a 20 years hiatus.
The core band of ML were always Mutti – guitar and swagger and Idefix – bass and singing.
Always been an fast and melodic punkrock band through all the 90´s ´til ca. 2002.

In these years the band was first called ‚Enough Is Enough‘, a short spell as ‚Total Recall‘ and almost ‚Screeching Fontbelt‘ before they changed the bands name to Muttis Lieblinge to underline the family values coming with the friendship of both head honchos of the band and their many drummers, who were on their stool for years or sometimes only for one show
These drumming guys were and are: Axl aka Hühnchen, Micky Schick (RIP), Bert aka Hermann von Hinten, Steve Hahn, Bugs……!
As the story goes, the infamous Terrorgruppe snatched up Idefix to become Ice-Tüte on their first three 7inches recorded, while in retour, Herman von Hinten became Bert Ballermann after his stint with TG, ca. end of the 90s. As a fun fact ML only recorded one original song ever, called Zu Spät, which was released on the TG tribute album Aggropop. More likely an anti tribute song, after all 3 of them had their time with TG at some point and sometimes for years in the 90s.
We still try to remember all the shows done many years before, so if you were a witness and are in the possession of proof, pictures or even film, don’t hesitate to get in touch via this page.
With their music Muttis Lieblinge are often recognised as a Punkrock Cover band from the Berlin district of Kreuzberg. The band does claim, that their songmaterial was so strong, that other bands took their songs to build their carriers or sometimes no carriers on these excellent material. Truth or fake, we will not tell, but catch one of the upcoming gigs and you can findout yourself what is the better story to believe

Muttis Lieblinge are back in rehearsal and will come out better than ever. And now with a magical five guys lineup they will not be stopped again to continue to give you joy and excitement to listen to some of your favorite tunes live and close to your eyes and ears….
as long as they will live and have fun !
