Live Laut Lokal – Bonded, Decaptacon, Phantom Corporation + May The Force Be

BONDED
BONDED return to the stage - harder and hungrier than ever! The Ruhrpott thrashers around ex-Sodom guitarist Bernd "Bernemann" Kost bring their relentless mix of old-school thrash, groove and metallic precision to Lükaz with a new line-up and proven power. Also on the bill: songs from the acclaimed albums "Rest In Violence" and "Into Blackness", which established BONDED as the spearhead of modern German thrash metal. After upheavals and a new formation, they present themselves with fresh energy and a line-up that takes no prisoners - including Christian "Speesy" Giesler (ex-Kreator) on bass and Manuel Bigus on the microphone, who sets new impulses with full force.

PHANTOM CORPORATION
With an explosive mix of old-school death metal, crust, thrash and hardcore, PHANTOM CORPORATION smash their way through all genre boundaries - brutal, relentless, honest. Founded in 2015 by scene veterans such as Leif Jensen (ex-Dew-Scented) and Marc-Andree Dieken (Weak Aside), the band stands for a massive sound with attitude and passion. With their 2023 debut album "Fallout" at the latest, the band has established itself as a permanent fixture in the extreme underground: Riff thunderstorms, snotty rage and pinpoint precision - a real treat live!

DECAPTACON
When DECAPTACON take to the stage, there's no escape: brutal riffs, powerful grooves and a sound that hits you deep in the stomach. Since their formation, the Ruhrpott death band have earned themselves a reputation as a force of nature to be taken seriously with merciless old-school death metal and a powerful live presence. Stylistically located somewhere between Bolt Thrower, Asphyx and Benediction, DECAPTACON stand for honest, raw heaviness without unnecessary gimmicks - with a razor-sharp edge and a clear goal: maximum destruction.

MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU
Since 2005, May The Force Be With You have stood for a rousing mixture of hardcore, thrash and metal - raw, direct and guaranteed plastic-free. With their second album "The Barrier", the band made an impressive comeback in 2019: eleven new tracks, honestly produced, musically versatile and uncompromisingly straight to the point. Live, this means: sweat, beer, mosh pits - and a show where nothing is left untouched. No scene posturing, no elitist stomping around - just pure energy and proof that DIY hardcore from the Pott is far from being a thing of the past.
