The eternal shortage of cash prevents the long-awaited trip to Italy. Unfortunately, Tuscany doesn’t come for free, but at least there’s some Italian flair at a low price at the Great Italian Punk Shock. The three bands 4 Axid Butchers, L´Invasione Degli Omini Verdi, and Pig-Tails have come together for a tour through Germany. Broadly speaking, their style can be classified as punk, but a closer look reveals more layered sounds than one might initially suspect.

The 4 Axid Butchers were founded in December 2004 in Brescia/Italy. In September 2007, they thrilled a large audience at their showcase during PopKomm. With their disco-punk, they unleashed a true party hurricane. Many styles such as funk, dance, reggae-steady, and pop-punk unite to form one - disco-punk.
L´Invasione Degli Omini Verdi are the longest-standing band in this lineup. They have been around since 1999 and, with their melodic hardcore punk sung in Italian, have become one of the most well-known bands in Italy.
