VODKA JUNIORS (GR)
No stars in Athens, instead...no, not schnapps, but vodka from the VODKA JUNIORS! The band from the Greek capital is our next confirmation for the coming summer. The album titles in the - over 20-year-old - discography, for example “Suburbancore”, “Darkpoetry” or “Warrior Anthems”, set the direction wildly. Because the next run-of-the-mill melodycore band is not coming around the corner here, the mix of styles the VODKA JUNIORS is as diverse as it is original: punk meets hardcore, reggae meets synthesizer sound, even rock sounds terrible, right? first time at Back To Future, VODKA JUNIORS!

HAMMERHEAD (GER)
“IN SUMMER ON THE ASS OF THE WORLD” - Yes, HAMMERHEAD are returning to this very ass of the world called Glaubitz! The new LP “NACHDENKEN OVER DEUTSCHLAND” was played up and down here and it was clear to us: we’ll try to get it again! The first time at the start in 1996 (at the quasi-legendary “Großenhain” Open Air), everything cleared away in 2022, now finally back with us with the Ox Fanzine cover story: The blatant pigs from the West! Chaos days, I drink alone, throw garbage cans, everyone dies... HAMMERHEAD takes care of it!

SMOKE BLOW (GER)
Rarely has a booking agency responded to a request from us in such a heartwarming way as here: “The band really enjoyed it with you, we’d love to come back!” (something like that) - Well, you're happy to hear that, so this year we're voluntarily putting a plate of extra beer brands in the backstage! We're really looking forward to one of the rare shows from the Kiel powerhouse SMOKE BLOW! Brutal, best hardcore punk with lots of “Ohoho” parts to hum along to, performed by Jack Letten / Erik Cohen, MCStrassenköter, Greif Hellhammer, Fabst, Gerrard the J.R. and Kentucky (stage names like those from the World Wrestling Federation). It's going to be wild!

N.T.Ä. (GER)
Nadine Nevermore, Tommy Crack and Äxel Äxport - that sounds like their own wrestling foundation, HaRiBo or the extras for the new Werner film, but of course the first letters are the eponymous elements of the trio from Saarbrücken: N.T.Ä.! Melodic street punk - furious, snotty and defiant! ... and even if the band can no longer hear the comparison, Brody's THE DISTILLERS greet dirtyly from the edge of the stage. We're looking forward to another Back To Future debut! Welcome N.T.Ä.!

Nasty Rumours (CH)
Hands down, if NASTY RUMOURS aren't the current Neo '77 European champions, then who are? The Swiss have climbed the coolness ladder with every release and every live show in recent years. If NASTY RUMOURS were founded in the mystical year 1977 instead of 2014, then there would certainly be several meaningful TV documentaries and the red carpet at the Rebellion Festival or Punk Rock Bowling every year. But this is how you can enjoy it - NASTY RUMOURS at Back To Future - Straight To Your Heart!

ALARMSIGNAL (GER)
ALARMSIGNAL - And finally one of the better kind! There is no comparison to the alarm signal that was sent to your cell phones and TV screens nationwide on a trial basis, without being asked, a few weeks ago. This ALARM SIGNAL here is of a completely different caliber: authentic, angry and political German punk that sounds like German punk in times like it had to sound - giving hope, rousing, accusing.
The band is coming out with a new album (which will probably come out in January), which you should have memorized by summer...
We are pleased to welcome ALARMSIGNAL for a second time after 2022!

CONNE ISLAND- fundraising campaign
As you have probably already noticed, a fundraising campaign is currently underway to save the Leipzig cultural institution CONNE ISLAND, but only for 2 days. All details and information about the campaign can be found here under the link. We have appreciated and liked the place for years, actually for decades. We have seen fantastic bands there, have been inspired by some of the discussions that have been sparked there and have also had a good time at the bar in Conne Island on one or two occasions. We want it to stay that way and if you feel the same way as us: go here:

THE LIZARDS (ESP)
MÄD LYNX have already been confirmed, and now THE LIZARDS too. After the crazy lynxes, now come the lizards. We're really excited to see what else the booking team has in the pipeline: TIGER ARMY? ZEBRAHEAD? STREET DOGS? Even the SCORPIONS? We'll see. In any case, THE LIZARDS have it all: Furious and incredibly catchy punk n' roll somewhere between BOMBPOPS, JOAN JETT and THE LAST GANG, so more like a nimble cheetah or angry gorilla than a dreamy reptile. The trio from Barcelona with their Back To Future debut - we're really excited!

NONCHALANT (GER)
Many years ago, a clever sports reporter for SC Freiburg invented an almost contradictory description of the team as “the Breisgau Brazilians” - because the players played as gracefully and “beautifully” as the Brazilian selection at the World Championships. It sounds almost as strange if you give the bullies from NONCHALANT - yes, they are also from Freiburg - the golden power pop medal! Please don't make the mistake of judging the sound of the group from the ruffian promo photo: They have sugary sweet melodies, somewhere between CUTE LEPERS, YUM YUMS, VANILLA MUFFINS and MELMACS. Either they play very early or very early: you can't miss them!
