LOS FASTIDIOS! Born in Verona in late 1991 and led by Enrico (well-known figure of the punk rock/ska scene and founder of the independent label KOB Records).
The Los Fastidios sound is a powerful melodic streetska & punk which mixes classical 80’s British Punk-Oi! sounds with a lot of skanking, and some reggae, rock 'n' roll, hardcore rhythms with a touch of pop, sung in Italian with some touches of English, French, Spanish and German languages.
The lyrics come from the most cheerful street situations to more serious and involved matters which deal with social problems, such as battles against racism-fascism and any form of discrimination, for the animal rights, for freedom and against the capitalistic system...
These last years, Los Fastidios have achieved great number of anti-racist initiatives and social causes, by taking part in various support gigs with collections in favour of Chiapas, Mapuche, for the workers, against racism, for the animal rights, against war, against capitalism and neoliberism, etc...
Since the beginning of 2019 Elisa Dixan (tour manager of the band since 2012) is also regular guest on stage. Elisa Dixan released two 7" EP in 2018 and 2019 titled "Elisa Dixan Sings Los Fastidios" Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, including some old Los Fastidios songs sung by her. Since 2019 he has participated in all the subsequent record productions of the band.
In March 2020 the band was forced to stop the tour because of Covid19, but still managed during the lockdown to record 12 acoustic songs for as many videos shared during the quarantine, which will be collected, at the great request of the loyal audience, in the album "From Lockdown to the World" released in August 2020 and produced by Kob Records in collaboration with Potential Hardcore (E) and supported by Fire and Flames (D), Lonsdale (D), Relco London (UK), True Rebel Store (D), Larsen Productions (F) and Prof Sny Vinyl (CZ).
Plus special guests DEATH TRAILS
Northern loudmouths DEATH TRAILS are a hard-hitting three piece with duelling female and male vocals. They combine punk, grunge, ska and hardcore to create their unique, raw sound and rollercoaster of a set.
Lyrically no stone is left unturned, with topics ranging from bongs and billionaires to riots and religion, delivered with sweet harmonies and hell- raising screams.
The tight trio have become known for their genre-defying and sweat-inducing live shows, packed with furious energy and visceral passion. Though the subject matter is often dark, Death Trails brings joy, unity and a damn good time for all.
No hate, no fear, everybody is welcome here. See you in the pit.
Plus special guests THOSE FUCKING SNOWFLAKES
Blackpool born and Preston based TFS are a vibrant clash of lefty noise punk and anger jazz. Like Joe Strummer if he had been dropped on his head as a child. They picked a name that mostly held them back from the ‘big time exposure’ but it sums up everything they are in three simple words, as the band take back an insult used by Right Wingers and Daily Heil readers.
Both musically and lyrically challenging, the members use TFS as a vessel to vent frustrations and anger, never holding back and never hiding the meanings in metaphors. TFS were always about getting something off their collective chests rather than chasing the dream of rock stardom.
The band started in 2019, and against the odds were championed by Tom Robinson (who in 2025 also contributed vocals to their song ‘Straight Pride Month), received generous airplay on 6music, XFM and other stations and eventually had music legend John Robb pick them up and release a record on his label. In 2025 they finally played Rebellion Festival after Covid stopped them from playing it TWICE!.
LOS FASTIDIOS, DEATH TRAILS & THOSE FUCKING SNOWFLAKES are here on THURSDAY 23rd OCTOBER! Tickets are £12 advance or £15 on the door. Doors at 8pm, standing show.
