Die Nerven / 00.20 – 01.20
World premiere
Die Nerven (The Nerves) twisted the German musical landscape like a hurricane. While the trio wrote their debut in a couple of hours, they took at least a couple of days to write their second album. Critics welcomed the two sharp testimonies of reduction anyway and try to keep up with the many, no less interesting side- and solo-projects, in which Julian Knoth, Max Rieger and Kevin Kuhn prove their talent almost on a monthly basis. In the meantime Die Nerven grew to be an impressive live-act that will blast out their new material in the Kantine am Berghain.
The Pre New / 23.20 – 00.00
German premiere
Music for hyper capitalism, »Music For People Who Hate Themselves«: with their bare butts The Pre New tear down what remains of our rubble society.

Zentralheizung of Death des Todes (Central Heating of Death of Death) is constantly striving for bilingualism and is celebrating music until the last bit of energy is used up. Their high-speed garage-rock from Berlin, Erfurt and Leipzig is as thrilling, as song titles such as »Heilige Harze (Holy Resins)« or »Falafel 666« are pure genius. Consume responsibly, please!
