This band from Mungia has kicked ass in the last four years playing non-stop around Spain, Europe and Mexico. Anything can happen on the stage… Power, electricity, punk attitude.They ́ve played inthebiggest festivals of Spain:PRIMAVERA SOUND, BBK LIVE, FIB BENICASSIM, SOS 4.8, LOW FESTIVAL, DCODE, MADCOOL, WAM MURCIA, JAZZALDIA, KUTXA KULTUR FESTIBALA, BIME, SANTANDER MUSIC FESTIVAL…

High energy hypnotic melodies, great riffs, amazing bass rhythms, powerful drums…Every show goes from the darkness to the light, the 80 ́s through the 21st century, sweet voices to screams, relaxation to sweat… postpunk, electronic.
