Public Serpents / Lyink / Blank When Zero

In the organizer's words:

PUBLIC SERPENTS are a loud, politically-infused, skacore six piece out of New Jersey (USA), fronted by Skwert Gunn- of New York City's seminal squat punk band Choking Victim- and featuring a curated lineup of the most talented musicians we could find from around the globe.

The fast-paced, hard-touring, crack-rock-steady standard has released two full length albums, splits with both UpperDowner and Fat Wreck Chords signees Escape From The Zoo, and appeared on numerous compilation albums and even a video game soundtrack since their 2008 debut.

Public Serpents has taken the stage everywhere from the world-reknowned ones of festivals like Boomtowne Fair, Rebellion, & Manchester Punk Fest to the handmade-with-love stages of the DIY spots and squats of Spain, Austria, and the Navajo Nation. Their name has appeared on lineups alongside such legendary bands as The Slackers, The Suicide Machines, Pennywise, Rancid, Lambrini Girls, The Rumkicks, & Frank Turner, to name just a few.

2025 will see the band briefly touring the Southwestern United States from Los Angeles to Punk Rock Bowling in Las Vegas before embarking on their fourth EU/UK tour where they'll rock out on NINE festival stages (including Boomtown (ENG), Exit Fest (SRB), Club Monteparadiso (HR), Munky Pride (LV), Punk W Doline (PL), BLB Fest (IT), Muhlen Madness (DE), and more!) among 13 straight weeks of club shows in between.

LYINK is a cross-genre project at the intersection of dark pop, industrial, metal and alternative electronics. The music combines raw, emotional vocals with heavy synths, distorted textures and cinematic soundscapes. In the lyrics, singer Alex deals with dark experiences from his childhood that still shape his personality today. Themes such as depression, anger, oppression, abuse and self-sabotage are often addressed. Lyink takes the side of people who doubt themselves and are afraid to speak out, who perhaps also had to experience a difficult childhood and struggle with such issues on a daily basis. Lyink is the constant battle with oneself and the art of not giving up.

Founded with the aim of making music not just audible but tangible, LYINK stands for a dystopian aesthetic, urban melancholy and an uncompromisingly artistic attitude. A project for all those who dance between light and shadow.

BLANK WHEN ZERO: Power punk rock and hardcore trio from the Rhine-Main-Bermuda triangle with short, fast, aggressive, melodic and complex arrangements. The current release is the 4-track 7″ EP "Stagna" (Keep It A Secret Records).
