• Formed in Louisville, Kentucky in 2006, Young Widows have spent two decades carving out a singular space between noise rock, post-hardcore and post-punk: heavy, raw and unmistakably their own. After an 11-year pause, the legendary trio return with Power Sucker, their long-awaited fifth album and one of their most intense and forward-moving records to date. Still as crushing and inventive as ever, Young Widows continue to blur the line between sonic violence and emotional weight. A rare chance to witness one of underground heavy music’s most distinctive bands live.

• Aicher is the solo project of Berlin-based artist Liam Andrews, also known for his work with My Disco and Eros. Built around industrial percussion, metallic textures and heavy atmosphere, Aicher moves between raw intensity and slow-burning tension. Dark, physical and deeply hypnotic, it feels equally rooted in Berlin’s industrial tradition and modern experimental music.

• LVFT is a four-piece outfit delivering a blistering take on noise rock and post-punk. Influenced by titans like Fugazi, Sonic Youth, and U.S. Maple, their music rides the line between earworm melodies and raw, jittery energy. Their sound is steeped in dissonant, feedback-laden guitars and cutthroat punk rhythms.
