Loikaemie

In the organizer's words:

Founded in Plauen in 1994, LOIKAEMIE quickly developed into a nationwide scene institution. Their contribution to the soundtrack of the award-winning film "Oi! Warning" made them known to a wider audience in 1999.

This was followed by the albums "Wir sind die Skins" (2000), "Ill" (2002) and "Loikaemie" (2007). After a number of line-up changes, LOIKAEMIE's longest and most stable line-up is now Thomas, Eddie, Paul and Bruno. In 2014, the band pulled the plug for the time being, but LOIKAEMIE has been back since 2019.

Four studio albums in over 20 years have been enough to underpin their status as one of Europe's best-known Oi! and punk bands. On them, all the more "hits" are collected, if you want to call it that in the unpretentious scene context. Their unmistakably anti-fascist anthem "Good Night White Pride", but also the gleeful middle finger "Oi! That's Yer Lot" or the melancholy and subtle "Trinkfestigkeit" are a must at every concert.

After 16 long years, 12 new songs have now been added to "Menschen", the fifth LOIKAEMIE album to be released on the band's new own label "Fettfleck Records". 2024 marked the band's 30th birthday.
