The summer session is known to be the sweatiest, which is why we can present three local Saunier expert bands this time: Bolzen have been masterfully making the city's noise underground unsafe with bass and drums for several years, while Triebe are probably Munich's most exciting noise punk trio since there have been noise punk trios in Munich - aesthetics with oomph! We are also very much looking forward to Digital Carbs, who have already made a name for themselves far beyond the borders of the state capital and will conjure up sweat on your skin in a spherical, psychedelic and rocky way. After that, it's off to a well-deserved summer vacation for everyone - we're looking forward to it!
BOLZEN
BOLZEN is what's in between. Energetic between the beats, to the rhythm of glittering castanets. Collages in the sparkle of neo-expressive intonation. A dance between the worlds, what was, is and will be. Here we go!
BOLZEN are a two-man powerhouse from Munich, formed in 2022 from the ruins of MONZA. Excessively noisy bass. Rippling drums that sizzle to the rhythm of the universe. Metaphysical vocals, everywhere and nowhere at the same time.
Thorsten (bass/vocals) and Hannes (drums) are disruptive master builders. Monuments are raised, powerful and dense, determined and clear, energetic, strict and elegant. Dark, sparkling temples of sound. Built to be torn down again immediately.
BOLZEN is the sound of a mood of departure and end-time, of weariness and world-weariness, of euphoria and light-heartedness, of isolation and fear, of frivolity and decadence.
TRIBES
What can you do when the permanently charged atmosphere of society's political bullshit is just as nerve-wracking as the inevitable doom of climate disaster? Watching some people fly into space with their dildos while others spend their lives in factory farming?
When, like a miracle, a band room becomes available in the neighborhood, Manne, Ju and Fabi sense an opportunity to give expression to their inner imbalance. As roommates/musicians/BFFs, they immediately begin to give a platform to the frustration they have built up. But fatalism doesn't get anyone anywhere, so guitar noise, bass walls and screams have to be adorned with cynical lines and algorithm-compliant dance passages. But to avoid slipping into the Top 100, you have to shout into telephones and solder some DIY stuff to the amplifiers, if you can. After a few recordings that the band produced themselves, three electro songs were created in the time when the doors were closed, which are as jarring as your favorite techno store on Sunday morning. Or maybe not.
As long as the world burns, idiots have something to say and unequal conditions are standard, as long as the cleanest city has no room for everyone and has its reputation forged by alcoholic assholes, TRIEBE will have enough points on their Agile Task Board to throw out new noise. Live, the band will be supported by Danigore, who will use her knowledge of photo/animation and aesthetics to project ecstatic feedback and wrenching motifs onto the band using analog and digital modules.
TRIEBE with Danigore: a multi-sensory journey through desperate hearts. In color.
DIGITAL CARBS
From the solo beginnings of bassist and singer Johannes Rest, Digital Carbs have developed into an insider tip on the Munich alt-rock scene. Their debut album "Are We Taking It Slowly", released in 2022, recently reached the milestone of over 150,000 streams on Spotify.
With one album and two EPs in their repertoire, the quartet didn't give themselves a break in 2025 and put all their energy into a new long-playing record, which will be released this fall. It is called "Oh Hedonism" and is characterized by the worsening conditions in the world and an increasingly divided society. The first single "Head in the Clouds" and its video will be released on May 16. This time, however, a radical surrealism is mixed in with the tried and tested "Carbian" dystopia. Is it daydreaming or an escape from reality when the fish fly towards the sun and the marmots bury you alive? Initially beautifully decorated, the musical canvases are soon torn down in delusion. It remains an up and down, both emotionally and compositionally, which has become something of a trademark for the group.
