Gutalax (Grind / Tschechien)

In the organizer's words:

GUTALAX...the Czechs know how to spice up grind 'n' roll with a fat stage production: Just have enough toilet brushes and toilet paper in your luggage, ahem! Of course, the guys' crunching grindcore is also convincing on its own, but we know the game: this kind of music only becomes really entertaining when there's a lot going on on stage. This is the case with GUTALAX. So, it's time to put your head down, down a few / many fun drinks, pick up the toilet brush you brought with you, march off to the GUTALAX gig and have a hell of a lot of fun!

JAPANESE BATTLE BACKGROUND... the grindcore legends from Krefeld were founded in 1998, inspired by the belief that grinding originated in Japan over 2,000 years ago and by their own psychotic tendencies. They are now regarded as pioneers of the German grindcore scene and inspire audiences with their powerful live performances.
