Margaritas Podridas (MEX), Support: Fovos Alif (D)

Das sagt der/die Veranstalter:in:

The Hermosillo, Mexico-based quartet Margaritas Podridas was born out of admiration for the underground rock landscape of the ‘90s, culling from the distortion-laden songwriting of the grunge scene, the scuzz-coated pop of shoegaze, and the noisy sojourns of that decade’s college rock’s guitar icons. Sonics aside, there’s a political streak and DIY ethic in Margaritas Podridas that recalls the confrontational idealism of their musical forebearers, evidenced in their underage scene building efforts in their hometown, their negation of the English language despite their growing international fanbase, and their penchant for giving the middle finger to sexism in both the music industry and the broader world.

Ready for raw energy, distorted guitars, and hypnotic vocals? The celebrated underground band MARGARITAS PODRIDAS from Mexico is coming to us. The Sub Pop signing brings us walls of experimental guitar blasts unafraid of grunge, shoegaze, and punk! Dark, intense, and full of emotion – anyone who has ever seen the band live knows: this is no ordinary show. Whether at international festivals or in small clubs – Margaritas Podridas tear it all apart. It's going to be loud, angry, and beautiful.

Fovos Alif are not a product of the music industry – they are its counter-design. Their roots lie in post-punk, but their sonic vision stretches far beyond: dark, forceful, uncompromising. No songs made for playlists, no shows just to tick boxes – every performance is a manifesto against stagnation. Fovos Alif don’t play to please. They play to endure. Fovos Alif don’t play along – they tear it all down. No empty talk about algorithms or follower counts, no shows without substance. Every note hits. Every move matters. Their live shows aren’t gigs – they’re experiences. Charged, focused, physical. This isn’t rehearsal. This is ignition.
