KISS, Wolfmother
With over 85 Mio sold records, KISS have written one of the most exciting chapters in Rock history. Their explosive performances in Sci-Fi costumes, with distinct make-up and on the already legendary plateau boots have become a trademark of KISS, nominated for the Rock'n'Roll Hall of Fame. After 35 years, since the start of the legendary "Stadium Rock" in New York, the new songs taken off the 'Sonic Boom' record are proof of the ever ingenious creativity of that band. It is a sonic, stylistic cross-section through the admittedly long career of one of the most shimmering groups in the rock business.

Motorpsycho
MOTORPSYCHO from Trondheim, Sweden, chose to walk the harder path instead of striving for mainstream commercial success. Already their first album 'Lobotomizer' contains a plethora of influences coming together, most notably on such songs like 'Hogwash' or 'Eternity'. The coming years would make the progressive elements in their music take more and more room and displace the Metal influences almost completely. Psychedelic Rock, Jazz, even Country devices would become majorly audible, gaining them a high reputation with ambitious listeners and critics over the years.

The Prodigy
THE PRODIGY is back, more present than ever and they're stoked to do what they can do better than anyone else: Raving! Their current album 'Invaders Must Die' was hard proof to the entire world that they've lost nothing of their power and still are able to push an entire audience into ecstasy. 'Invaders Must Die' sold over 1 Mio copes by now and if that's not proof of the quality than what is? The band thrills the masses worldwide with spectacular live shows, turning every ordinary concert into a voluptuous party and every festival into a mind-bending Techno Rave orgy. A good 35,000 people attended the shows during last year's tour and especially the festival appearances left long-lasting impressions.
