Skegss
Unabashed joie de vivre and Aussie swagger: Skegss in a nutshell. After their much-praised album Rehearsal, with which the band even conquered Coachella, Skegss successfully released Pacific Highway Music last year. So with fresh material and classic hits like “L.S.D.” in tow, the Badlands crowd can brace themselves for an explosive cocktail of bouncy punk […]
Meatbodies
All the way from LA: the mighty Meatbodies. And we’re stoked for this killer band taking the trip to Badlands #2. Meatbodies make loud, fuzzy, psychedelic rock with big hooks and a wild edge. Their new album Flora Ocean Tiger Bloom – give it a spin or 2, 3, 4 by the way! – mixes […]
Iguana Death Cult
Our groovy friends from Rotterdam are closing the Saturday! Iguana Death Cult make high-voltage, rhythm-twisted garage psych that lands somewhere between paranoid disco, no-wave funk and a tightly wound punk meltdown. Fueled by the chaotic energy of Rotterdam and the band’s Belgian-stove rehearsal therapy sessions, their sound has grown from razor-edged garage rock into a […]

C’est Qui?
C’est Qui? A groovy, garagey, glamorous, grimy, gnarly punk band born the moment four clashing genres walked into a room and accidentally created an out-of-control punk baby. C’est Qui? They look like they broke out of One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, hit like a ten-ton truck to the face, smell like red shiny pumps […]
