SLOPE + STATE POWER + DROPS + FORCED ENTRY

MENDVILLE presents

SLOPE (de) 2014, The 5 head gang was founded in Duisburg, Germany. Deep lyrics about personal struggles, the unsatisfying situation, the feeling of getting tricked by the world, and a f*** 9to5 mentality are not rare to find. With that pure and honest Hardcore/Punk attitude and the kicking groovy Slope sound. They created their own style and killed stages on festivals like Ieper Fest, Sound of Revolution or Outbreak Festival and shared stages with bands like Madball, Turnstile, Cold World, Code Orange, Terror, No Warning, just to name a few. The intend behind their Music is to make people move and let go of all struggles. Combining funky groovy riffs with hard pissed off stomps. Slope created their own way of writing Songs , no obstacles no limits just doin it the way they want it to be in a way of disrespecting all rules.

STATE POWER (nl) Meet Holland's latest outpouring of fury: State Power. A relentlessly loud and senselessly fast hardcore punk band and and a manifestation of pure love in its most aggressive form. If you haven’t heard of State Power, then you must have been living under a rock last year. These promising newcomers from Utrecht burst into the Dutch hardcore scene with their excellent EP “The Year Of The Harvest”. Expect Comeback Kid style hooks, Turnstile riffs, and a proper dose of political anger. No to pushpits, yes to mic grabs - you know the deal. Time to let it rip!

DROPS (fr) Grooving all the way from Arras, France. If you like your riffs heartfelt, with the necesssary shred and some two-step intermezzos. These guys might be for you!

FORCED ENTRY (be) Spawned from the love for late 90’s hardcore outfits like Crown Of Thornz, District 9 and later bands like TUI and Bad Seed, Forced Entry was formed by a group of friends who have been in various hardcore bands over the years. Old school sounds with old school spirit.
