Stomper 98, Berliner Weisse, Staré Pušky a CROSSCZECH na Mighty Sounds 2025

Stomper 98 (DE)

When Oi!, Punk and Offbeat met the traditional skinhead lifestyle, Stomper 98, now veterans of German street punk, were born. This year, the band celebrates twenty-six years on the scene and is well known to fans of the Mighty Sounds festival. Stomper 98 sees themselves as a traditional working class skinhead band and their lyrics also revolve around related themes. Their most recent album to date was released in 2023.

Berliner Weisse (DE)

Berliner Weisse is an Oi! punk band from Berlin, which was founded in 2000 and played its first gigs in the same year. For a long time they didn't have a name and since the guys didn't think much of it, while drinking a beer special from the federal capital they decided to name themselves after the drink. The band has released seven albums, the latest of which, from 2021, is called Spüre dein Herz.

 

Staré pušky

Some people love them, others curse them, but what is certain is that this group does it the way it should be done, honestly. Their music stands on the pillars of the legacy of North Moravian bands Degradace, Proti směru and Jesenice Naarden. As the guys themselves write, their goal was clear from the very beginning: to try to preserve the punk rock spirit of the songs and at the same time to try to insert a drop of something different for this scene among the old familiar, well-trodden themes and phrases. If they succeeded at least a little bit, you can judge for yourself.

 

Crossczech

The Prague power Oi! band Crossczech was founded in 2001, which in very simple terms means that by the time of the 19th edition of the festival they will have been on the scene for 24 years. The band was formed at a time when the Oi! scene was resonating all over the place, and it's all the more likeable that the guys are still pulling this ride even today, when genres are doing a bit worse. In 2023, Crossczech released their last album to date, Partie bez vítězů.
