REPTILIANS FROM ANDROMEDA
 In countries where the population is oppressed by a shit like Erdogan, an active underground scene against these totalitarian conditions usually develops. You rarely find out from these people that openly repressive states are suppressing them. With Reptilians From Andromeda, a Turkish band is on our stage this year, whose members have shaped the punk scene in their country! We are looking forward to them because on the one hand they play a snappy garage punk sound, on the other hand to support Turkish subculture and to give them the feeling that they are not alone.
7.2. JUHA ROSSWEIN - SCHROTTGRENZE, FCKR, STRZ
It is with great pleasure that we notice that quite a few of you notice how much commitment and passion we and a whole lot of amazing people organize this festival every year. The workload increases year after year and the smaller concerts that we were very happy to organize in the past suffer as a result. So it's time to join forces. A concert according to our ideas (and with a little effort from us) will take place in the youth center in three weeks. In addition to the local heroes from StrgZ and FCKR , who would be worth a visit on their own, SCHROTTGRENZE also stop in Rosswein. Years ago we had her visiting. A lot has happened since then, the great songs have stayed and quite a few have been added. Alex became Saskia and everything fits. We promise you a musically very varied but extremely high-class evening. And it should go with the devil, if by then you can not find a few liters of this delicious rhubarb to celebrate this reunion.
PRE SALESP.I.Y. - PUNKROCK KARAOKE
   Yeah, have you ever stopped by PIY - Punkrock Karaoke to see what new songs they have created to get you back to your absolute top performance in the early morning punk rock? There are some really cool classics with: Breaking The Law, Never Say Die, Macht kaputt what breaks you, Satan (!!!), I Fought The Law and so on and immediately. Already clear what that means for you next weekend. Do not shoot completely on Fridays because the PIY Back To Future Bootcamp is now every Saturday morning and you always have to train under almost the same conditions. That means in bathing suits, optionally without again, standing in the middle of the room with an empty bottle and singing a song of your choice with a full throat. Anyone who is cursed with all sorts of curses by their dear neighbors during the song is already way ahead. But the winner is whoever the cops come in the closed door at a boar gallop. So get to the training camp!
"IN DACHAU IST NICHTS MEHR LOS" - A+P
in Dachau ist nichts mehr los
in Buchenwald ist nichts mehr los
in Besen ist nichts mehr los
in Auschwitz ist nichts mehr los
die Lager stehen leer
es gibt keine Folterknechte mehr
die Öfen warten still
bis einer wieder Menschen braten will
aus den Duschen fließt kein Gas
und befriedigt den Rassenhass
It's damn scary how up-to-date "Dachau", one of A + P's most famous songs, is still. They channeled their anger and created hits with critical almost lyrical lyrics. No wonder, the band was founded in 1979 in Starnberg, which is still a district with one of the highest average incomes in our country. A place where the blossoming Federal Republic showed all its ambivalence, an already institutional injustice. Workers and employees who commute to work because rent and living on site cannot be financed. The profiteers of this order, who hide their property and the origin of their wealth behind great walls. Looks familiar to you? There was of course also back then. The cosmos A + P was fed from these contradictions. Actually, the band didn't want to perform anymore, thanks to Ronja from the Plastic Bomb Fanzine, the four of them let themselves be motivated again and will bring their angry lyrics to Glaubitz.
IRISH FOLKPUNK - THE MAHONES
   The fact that you can also play authentic Irish folk punk in North America is nothing new. After all, countless descendants of those who did not want to starve to death in their homeland in the mid-19th century live there. These include THE MAHONES from Toronto, Canada, which are known around the world. This is sure to be a wet and happy visit with loads of singalongs.
DIE LOKALMATADORE
     Anyone who thinks of the Back To Future inevitably thinks of THE LOKALMATADORE from the pot. No other band has been on stage here more often and it is not to be expected that this will change again in life. We can live with it and even want to. Because the following still applies: olé, olé, olé viva local matadohohor!
ANOTHER PRIME ROCK - DIE SKEPTIKER
Another veteran from ancient times. In other words, it was a gray past because DIE SKEPTIKER was founded in East Berlin in the eighties when the fall of the Berlin Wall was not yet to be expected.
It's been 30 years since the reunification in 2020, we are excited to see what exceptional singer Eugen Balanskat has to say about it.
UK SUBS - HAPPY NEW YEAR
Yes, luckily it worked out that UK SUBS can make up for their 2019 appearance, that was also very important to us personally! We are at least as happy about it as you are. With the 76-year-old singer Charlie Harper, the lived punk rock history, from the beginning until today, is on our stage. A great story to welcome a punk rock pioneer to BTF 2020.
LOS FASTIDIOS - ANTIFA HOOLIGANS
       They are one of the most active European skinhead bands since the nineties. No other band with a short haircut has been on the road as often for many years as the band from Verona. It's also amazing that they still manage to sound fresh, like they did in their first decade.
It's great that the clear anti-fascists LOS FASTIDIOS are coming to visit us again.
