DEAL WITH IT
(UK - http://www.myspace.com/dealxwithxit)
Britain's most notorious shock rockers return with a new LP on Reflections Records. This Is Europe Fest will be the "EyjafjallajΓΆkull" LP release show!

 

NO TURNING BACK
(NL - http://www.myspace.com/noturningbackhardcore)
What is there to say that hasn't been said yet? No Turning Back is THE definition of European hardcore.

 

Mordax aka REACHING FORWARD
(NL - http://www.myspace.com/reachingxforward)
In 2002 Reaching Forward played their final show at the infamous Goudvishal (RIP) in Arnhem. Now 3/5 of the band returns with a new project called Mordax and they will release a 7" just in time for their show at This Is Europe Fest. Followed by those songs they will bust out a few Reaching Forward classics!

 

DEATH IS NOT GLAMOROUS
(NOR - http://www.myspace.com/deathisnotglamorous)
Ever since their demo came out I considered this band as one of the best bands around in Europe and I haven't changed my mind since then. Stoked to have them on this fest and you should be too.

 

NEW MORALITY
(NL - http://www.myspace.com/newmoralityhc)
This will be one of the few shows the NM5 will play till their new LP drops early 2011.

 

RITUAL
(GER - http://www.myspace.com/ritualeurope)
One of Europe's leading hardcore acts and this will be one of your first chances to get their new 7" on Reflections Records called "Kissing Pavement".

 

NEVER AGAIN
(UK - http://www.myspace.com/neveragainxxx)
Straight edge. Raw. Fast. Best new band I saw in the whole year. Now go and stomp your way through the pit.

 

FAMINE
(IRE - http://www.myspace.com/faminehc)
The island of Ireland is probably best known for it's Guiness but you should definitely get to know it for it's high quality hardcore. Famine is Ireland's number 1 band and definitely deserves a spot on a fest with this name.

 

CITIZENS PATROL
(NL - http://www.myspace.com/citizenspatrol)
After two well received 7"es on No Way Records followed by a US tour Citizens Patrol just released their first LP. Expect no bullshit. Just punk!

 

AYS
(GER - http://www.myspace.com/ayssucks)
Ruhrpott 'mosh'. These Germans came a long way but are considered Germany's biggest upcoming band these days. New LP "Eroded By The Breeze" out now on Cobra Records!

 

CORNERED
(NL - http://www.myspace.com/cornered13)
At first I didn't want Cornered to be playing since my other band is already playing and that might look retarded... fuck that, I had an open spot and which other band already toured Europe three times in their first 18 months as a band?

 

THIS ROUTINE IS HELL
(NL - http://www.myspace.com/thisroutineishell)
Let's face it, the new breed in The Netherlands might not be that strong, but this band fucking rules.

 

+ Vegan catering (no meat, hardcore ethics people!) by Ferm en Fameus
+ Reflections Records distro
