Sven Friedrich (vocals) from Solar Fake
On May 24, 2024, the time has finally come! The new SOLAR FAKE album, ‘Don’t push this button!’ will be out. This album will not be released by Out Of Line like the three previous albums of the band, but by Sven Friedrich’s label Pointless Music. We’ve known Sven well for a long time and we managed to bring SOLAR FAKE to Kyiv, Ukraine twice with solo concerts and we sincerely believe that when the war is over it will be possible again! It’s always an honour for us when we have a chance to interview him, especially when there is such a great occasion as the release of a new album.

Nouvelle Vague - “20th anniversary ‘Should I stay or should I go’ - Tour 2024” - Special guest: Pano
It has been almost 20 years since the Parisian collective NOUVELLE VAGUE, founded by Marc Collin and the late Olivier Libaux, released their first album. The concept: New Wave = New Bossa Nova = NOUVELLE VAGUE. Punk and New Wave standards are reinterpreted and recorded in the dreamy style of the Bossa Nova of the 50s and 60s with rousing vocals. Their sound is unique and unmistakable. NOUVELLE VAGUE quickly became a worldwide success. After releasing nine studio albums, a recent tour that took them through Holland, Turkey, Romania, Poland and beyond, and an album of the same name, the NOUVELLE VAGUE project returns to the stages of Germany with their “Should I Stay Or Should I Go - 20th anniversary Tour 2024”.

STICK TO YOUR GUNS from Orange County, California are one of the most popular Hardcore bands in the world, and with their career spanning over 20 years, they have assembled quite a huge followship. So, when they announced, that they would be coming to Düsseldorf for the first time and would play their only headline show in Germany in 2024 at zakk, the show sold out in no time.

Ville Valo - “Neon Noir Tour 2024” - Support: Zetra
When I arrived half an hour before doors, a very long line bending around the corner indicated that people were ready to wait for hours in the sun to secure a good spot tonight. Plenty of cars circled the area, looking for a parking spot, so there would be an even longer line, whenever I would find a parking myself in a distance of a few miles walk.
