We're throwing our own festival, **Crunch Fest Berlin** — and everything we love is coming with it: a vintage & record market to dig through, a beer garden, and two stages of loud, restless music, bands from abroad next to the best of our own roster. Come early, stay late, leave a little wrecked. *When?* On **Oct 11, at 19:00** *Where?* **Cassiopeia** (Revaler Str. 99, 10245 Berlin) Line-up: **Sonic Death** — cult garage-punk lifers, now based in France. Heavy, raw and full of noise, with hardcore in its bones. Come see these legends, or be a loser. https://foreversonicdeath.bandcamp.com **Shaemless** — a Dutch trio playing noisy post-punk with the sweat and menace of The Birthday Party: jagged guitars, no wasted motion. https://shaemless.bandcamp.com **Mud Grief** — out of Gothenburg, a heavy tangle of noise-rock, grunge and stoner weight that lurches and roars in equal measure. https://mudgrief.bandcamp.com **Dusk Saffron** — washed-out, reverb-drenched shoegaze, dense and quietly urgent under the haze. https://dusksaffron.bandcamp.com **Etsamoe** — angular alternative rock caught between shoegaze and math-rock, all sudden turns and raw nerve. One of ours, on Crunch Tapes. https://etsamoe.bandcamp.com **slowraw** — melodic songwriting that never sits still, folding shoegaze into progressive twists. https://slowraw.bandcamp.com **?????** — the slot is yours. Drop names in the comments on Instagram *@crunchtapesberlin* and we'll pick the band from there.
