Fr., 10.7.2026, 21:00 Uhr: BALACLAVA (US) + KOPIERER (HH) – Komet Musik Bar, Hamburg

BALACLAVA

"A nice 'n' grimy lo-fi post-punk band led by NYC artist Dylan Joyce. Known for their scratchy, scuzzy, thrashy, and deliciously distorted jams, the five-piece live band brings a highly energetic, grime-covered punk aesthetic to the stage while wearing bright ski masks."

KOPIERER

Kopierer produce a blend of post-punk and minimal wave inspired by sounds from the 70s and 00s. Why? Repetition legitimizes and sets things in motion. And so – in true Kopierer-fashion – they get help from their machines, expanding what a duo would normally be capable of.

Fr., 5.6.2026, 21:00 Uhr: FUCKFUCKFUCK (NL) + CHÄIRWALK (HH) – Komet Musik Bar, Hamburg

FUCKFUCKFUCK (NL)

Destructo-rock 'n roll ensemble FuckFuckFuck started out in 2016 in Amsterdam. Consisting of 2 brothers, Colin (drums) and Jits Vlaar (vocals) and two brothers from other mothers, Hugo de Jonge (guitar / vocals) and Joris van Roozendaal (bass). Hugo and Joris already spent time playing together in bands before, but it wasn't until FuckFuckFuck released their first two singles "Anal" and "Bad Habits" in 2022 that things really started to roll. The songs and the accompanying videos (singer Jits is also a music video director and editor) quickly made an impact in the Dutch underground scene for their sense of humor and their raw, no-frills style of garage-punk music. Think garage-punk so primitive it hurts, marinated in ‘70s hard-rock boogie sweat, then served raw and screaming. It’s the sound of The Chats if they grew up worshipping The Stooges instead of sniffing glue with the Ramones. FuckFuckFuck will go on tour through The Netherlands and the rest of Europe in support of the release starting in March of 2026.

CHÄIRWALK

CHÄIRWALK ist eine 1995/1996 gegründete Rockband aus Hamburg, die für ihren „brutalen, unpolierten“ Alternative-Rock-Sound bekannt ist. Die Band tritt meist als klassisches Trio (Drums, Bass, Gitarre) auf und kombiniert aggressive Songstrukturen mit deutschen Texten Einflüsse: Queens of the Stone Age (QOTSA), Tool, Deftones, Helmet und Rage Against the Machine.

Mi., 3.6.2026, 18:30 Uhr: EEL MEN (GB) + NIGHT PUNCH (HH) – MS Hedi, Hamburg

EEL MEN

Eel Men formed in 2021. Couched in the instability of the present and the microcosm of North London, they prioritise angular guitars, straight rhythms and fanatical storytelling. After a long series of sweaty UK gigs and having already toured extensively around Europe, with gigs ranging from family friendly festivals to ex gestapo headquarters turned anarchist squats, there’s lots more on the horizon. 2025 saw Eel Men release their debut LP ‘Stop It! Do Something.’ via No Front Teeth (UK / EU) Big Neck Records (US) and embark on an extensive EU tour. Do yourself a favour and make sure you catch them live at one of their upcoming dates.

NIGHT PUNCH

Nennt es Synth-Punk, Hardcore-Punk, Doom-Punk oder Dark-Punk – dies ist der Soundtrack für die letzten Tage der Dystopie. Mit schierer Gewalt und angetrieben von düsteren Synths und schweren Riffs zerfetzen Night Punch die Finsternis und schaffen den fruchtbaren Boden, auf dem aus den Ruinen unserer alten Welt eine bessere Zukunft wachsen kann.

Fr., 29.5.2026, 21:00 Uhr: TY (US) + SPUCKE (HH) – Komet Musik Bar, Hamburg

TY

Hailing from Detroit, TY (pronounced tee why) have drums that sound like the headbutt the green viking guy does in Golden Axe II for the Sega Genesis. The lead singer grunting like the viking guy from Golden Axe II taking damage and, if you really listen for it, the guitar sounds ever so slightly like the special attack the green, bearded viking warrior does in 1991's Golden Axe II. Their brand of kickass garage punk is sure to please fans of Golden Axe II as well as those who have never even played the beat-em-up classic.

“...band I dont know much about cuz I just got into them. They’re from Detroit uhh… they’re called ‘TY’ and I believe that stands for thank you?” - Henry Rollins

SPUCKE

Between the shimmer of 12 string guitar and grittier synth sounds, Spucke bring together their love of Indie and Prog to perform their own brand of off-kilter pop songs.

Di., 26.5.2026, 18:30 Uhr: DEAD STILETTOS (GB) + SAVAGE RHYTHM CLUB (HH) + DIE NACHTSCHWESTERN (HH) – MS Hedi, Hamburg

DIE NACHTSCHWESTERN

Die Mischung macht’s, so das musikalische Credo der vierköpfigen Band aus Hamburg; mal in garage-surf-punk Gebaren und mal in neo-elektro-hamburger-schule Tonalität, aber immer im rhythmischen Schall, mit der Aufforderung dein Herz und deinen Körper in Verve und Pep zu versetzen.

Fr., 22.5.2026, 21:00 Uhr: ZACK KEIM (USA) + SCHLUMA (HH) – Komet Musik Bar, Hamburg

Zur ersten Single „Starstruck“, die gerade mal 1:29 Minuten lang ist, gibt es jetzt ein Musikvideo.

Fr., 1.5.2026, 21:00 Uhr: ITCHES (BE) + ISABELLA TROUBADOUR (HH) – Komet Musik Bar, Hamburg

ITCHES

ITCHES is a three-piece garage punk band hailing from the Kempen region of Belgium, near the city of Antwerp. They emerged in 2020 from a cryogenic sleep paralysis to bless the world with their signature sound: ‘Carapunk.’ The three members grew up in the slums of Los Kempos near Antwerp (not to be confused with the more tranquil Kempen). ITCHES’ signature hard-hitting sound, tight live performances, and infectious energy have earned them the reputation of being a ‘best-kept secret’ in the Belgian underground scene. But don’t take anyone’s word for it – experience it for yourself … if you can catch them alive!

ISABELLA TROUBADOUR

Isabella Troubadour aus Hamburg singt mit ihrer Whiskey getränkten Zunge Lieder wie „Es gibt keine Liebe und die Hoffnung ist Tod“ und das ist noch einer ihrer positiveren Texte.

Fr., 24.4.2026, 21:00 Uhr: SCIENCE MAN (USA) + NIGHT PUNCH (HH) – Komet Musik Bar, Hamburg

SCIENCE MAN

One of the most solid pillars of Bufallo's indispensable DIY punk scene, John Toohill presents "NINES MECCA", his long awaited third album of what is the most robust, sick and impressive of all his insane projects, SCIENCE MAN, which now definitively turned into a full band, brings us his most rabid an huge work to date. An obviously 100% punk album, taken to the sharpest and raged limits of hardcore, imbued in its own guts by a fierce noise proto-punk garage concept, which should definetely give this essential creator the recognition he deserves since he began with this solo project in the second half of 2010s. After being advanced in the last two months through a series of video chapters, one for each track of this album, made by Toohill himself and Lindsay Tripp in an exceptional labour that takes DIY concept to its highest limits, we are really proud to premiere on our channel what is for sure one of the greatest 2022 punk albums officially co-released tomorrow March 18th on locals label Swimming Faith and Feral Kids.

NIGHT PUNCH

Night Punch sind fünf Musiker aus Hamburg, die einen einzigartigen, apokalyptischen Sound zwischen Hardcore Punk, Dark Punk und kalten Synth-Elementen formen. Mit ihrem 2023 erschienenen Album "Where Sins Bloom (So Does Death)" lieferten sie eine gnadenlose, 32-minütige Klangattacke aus druckvollen Schlagzeug- und Bass-Teppichen, sägend verzerrten E-Gitarren, eisigen Synth-Flächen und wütenden Vocals, roh, kompromisslos und tief in einer düsteren Klangästhetik verankert. Seit ihrer Gründung hat sich um Night Punch, deren Identität stets in Masken zerfällt, eine treue Szene gebildet; sie veröffentlichen limitierte Tapes und Vinyls, spielen auf Festivals wie dem Get Lost! Fest und überzeugen mit intensiven, energiegeladenen Live-Shows, die den DIY-Ethos der Band unmittelbar spürbar machen. 2026 setzen sie diesen Weg mit dem Album "godisnowhere" fort: noch härter, direkter und aggressiver als der Vorgänger, ohne den eigenen Klangkern aufzugeben. Die Songs wirken dichter, kantiger und unerbittlicher, behalten aber die vertraute Mischung aus massiver Rhythmik, apokalyptischer Stimmung und nihilistischer Wucht bei. Eine weitere Eskalationsstufe im kompromisslosen Kosmos von Night Punch.

Mo., 20.4.2026, 18:30 Uhr: WAX HEAD (GB) – MS Hedi, Hamburg

WAX HEAD

A visceral gang of youth rolling around in a sweaty pit of garage-psych riffage. Born out of Manchester's growing garage/punk scene, Wax Head have made a strong name for themselves via their relentless gigging, sweaty live shows and garage-psych riffage. The drummer-fronted punk quartet launched onto the touring circuit after covid supporting US psych & garage outfits. They’ve tapped into a vein of fuzzy Californian garage-rock and with an alternative DIY music ethos, they make up one of a number of exciting young artists changing the face of the city's live circuit. In a scene saturated with jarring and angular post punk, Wax Head have stamped their chaotic psych noise on the North West. Signed to Sour Grapes Records & Woodwork Music.

Fr., 17.4.2026, 21:00 Uhr: CITRIC DUMMIES (US) + THE GOBS (US) – Komet Musik Bar, Hamburg

CITRIC DUMMIES

Citric Dummies are everything that makes modern rock n’ roll wonderful. Their energy leaps out of the speakers, their tempos will furrow the brow of any fist-pumping speed purist, and their irreverence dances quite artistically on the line between provocative and antagonistic without ever being juvenile or cruel. Indeed, the Minneapolis power trio flex their jester’s privilege on their new album Split With Turnstile with a tongue that has bored entirely through cheek, and spits just a little bit of blood at you. More than anything, Citric Dummies represent a natural progression from bands like Reagan Youth with snappy, fast, and extremely tight drum parts that work the hell out of the closed hi-hat and fall around the speeds of bands like Generacion Suicida, Dark Thoughts, or even The Ergs! Riff-wise, the band has a lot more in common with Barely Legal-era the Hives, Dwarves, and bits of early Arctic Monkeys, while vocalist/bassist “David Lunch” shouts, bellows, and wails throughout Split With Turnstile; a plain departure from what was described as “pretty much doing a Danzig impersonation,” on their 2023 release Zen and the Arcade of Beating Your Ass. Citric Dummies, however, exude a love of absurdity that none of these bands possess. Their pseudonyms for the other 66% of the band are drummer D.V. Tinner and guitarist David Cronutberger. – Pierce Jordan

THE GOBS

The Gobs is a punk/synth-punk band from Olympia, Washington, known for their energetic, lo-fi, garage rock sound with synth-driven, angular, and catchy tracks, often compared to German punk and darkwave.

Fr., 10.4.2026, 21:00 Uhr: TECHNOPOLICE (FR) + TAUBEN (HH) – Komet Musik Bar, Hamburg

TECHNOPOLICE

Technopolice is a Marseille-based quartet influenced by the current garage/eggpunk scene (RMFC, Prison Affair, Gee-Tee, etc.). Full throttle, no fuss, full of energy, buckle up and let's go! Their debut album "Chien De La Casse" will be out on September 26 2025 via French label Howlin' Banana.

TAUBEN

Bisschen hässlich, bisschen ranzig. Aber wunderschön. Projektionsfläche für den eigenen Daseinsekel und Wappentier sozialer Devianz. Die Schäbigkeit schreit dir ins Gesicht. Aber wer ist hier schäbig? Tauben kommen aus Hamburg und machen sowas wie Wave Punk. Sie schleudern den geneigten Zuhörern messerscharfe, zynische und oft witzige Textfragmente entgegen, zu zackig-punkigen Schrammelrhythmen, die das kleine Kunstwerk vollbringen, ebenso zum Nachdenken wie zum Tanzen anzuregen. Alles nach dem Motto: Lieber die Taube auf dem Dach als den Spatz in der Hand!

„Tauben schmelzen. Geschmolzen werden Käse, Frisuren, Tanzbeine und Verklemmtsein – dann ist Ton an Ton brennen und hart werden lassen angesagt. Danach wird wieder geschmolzen, in den Strudel der Neugierde und das hat was mit Physik zu tun.“ – Jens Rachut

Fr., 27.3.2026, 21:00 Uhr: PRIVATE LIVES (CA) + TALKIN' SECRET (HH) – Komet Musik Bar, Hamburg

PRIVATE LIVES

More musically accomplished, more obsessively self-questioning, and with equally energetic yet simply deceiving performances, Salt of The Earth finds Private Lives coming into their own. The Montreal group of hitmakers – vocalist Jackie Blenkarn, guitarist Chance Hutchison, bassist Josh Herlihey, and drummer Drew Demers – swerve through a bumper-to-bumper sprawl of charging vocals, searing guitar lines, and a bolting rhythm section that proves sheer rock ‘n’ roll is still very much alive. Where their debut LP Hit Record was a snapshot of a band in motion, Salt of The Earth is a perfect result of the group's rapid evolution, undercutting power pop conventions and challenging itself track after track. “I Get Around” and “Be Your Girl” refuse to keep their foot off the pedal with their snappy and primitive at best garage rock while the simply deceptive pop charm of “Wrong Again” is slashed, spurted, and jangled. “On My Own” bursts through the speakers with its one-two punch of ‘60s girl group melodies and “Psychic Beat” and “Dealer’s Choice” are a glorious jolt of high-power guitar bliss. In a time of derivative punk trends, Salt of The Earth is a refreshing take for pure pop for now people. – Joe Massaro / Hot Sounds

TALKIN' SECRET

Talkin' Secret is a Britpop/Post-Punk band from Hamburg, Germany. Their debut album 'Petrichor' channels the raw energy of UK indie.
