DIE SCHWARZEN SCHAFE + RAVAGERS + DEECRACKS

FOR THE VERY LAST TIME

The Black Sheep

40 years & farewell tour
DIE SCHWARZEN SCHAFE have been playing D.I.Y. punk rock since 1985. Many, many gigs have taken the band all over Europe. From the small AZ to the big festival stage, everything was included. It was never about the big career, but about the scene, and that is still the case today. Die Schafe sing about the beautiful, but also the bitter side of life and wrap these lyrics in mid-tempo punk rock with lots of melody and a sing-along factor (everyone can do Oh-ho-hooo!). The band takes a stand and is not interested in gray areas, fascists, sexists and homophobic idiots. Come along and celebrate - you probably know more songs than you think!

WITH A BRAND NEW ALBUM:

Ravagers

After their furious European tour last year, which every 77 fan will remember, they want to do it again and are coming back to Europe in 2025, The Ravagers from Baltimore, Maryland. It's easy to think of The Ravagers as a group of rebel-rousing shit stirrers. Their songs evoke obvious misbehavior. The lyrics often paint dangerous, black landscapes that resemble a wet Danzig dream. But at their core, they're here to have fun. Instead of putting out the rising flames of hell, these guys would rather throw a Molotov cocktail and crack open a Natty Bo (infamous Maryland beer).
The Ravagers have created their own brand of East Coast punk rock'n'roll. An aggressive blend of classic punk, early hard rock and glam, coupled with a mix of infectious guitars and melodies. They have been compared to bands like The Dead Boys and Turbonegro.
Since forming in 2013, they have cut a swath through the US and Canada, with their first releases "Livin in Oblivion" (Cricket Cemetery) and "Natural Instinct" (Rock N Rule Records/Pork Magazine) under their belt. The band brought Matt Gabs from BITERS into the band a few years ago to help push the release of "Drowning in Blood" (Spaghetty Town Records) in 2018. During this time the band supported bigger acts such as The Adicts, The Damned and FEAR and played at the 2018 Punk Rock Bowling Fest in Las Vegas. After the release of the LP "Badlands" in
2022, produced by Tuk Smith of Biters and Dan Dixon (Spaghetty Town Records), The Ravagers went on a major headlining tour across the US, Europe and Spain. And in 2025 they will return to Europe with a brand new album.

DeeCRACKS

DeeCRACKS celebrated their 20th anniversary in 2023 and can look back on a long and eventful history. They started out as The Cretins in 2003 and had to change their name at the end of 2007 due to a legal dispute with the German band The Creetins. But that didn't stop the three musicians at all, DeeCRACKS were born and their high-speed Ramonesque punk rock swept the entire punk rock world. Over 800 shows from Japan, China and Russia to Mexico, Canada and the USA, 6 LPs, many EPs, 7 "s, splits and even best-ofs, on international labels, 11 bassists and countless crazy tour stories - Austria's traditional punk rock figurehead DeeCRACKS are workhorses and unstoppable in spreading their vision of rock'n'roll.
They have toured with bands like NOFX, Bad Religion, Descendents, Teenage Bottlerocket, CJ Ramone, No Use For A Name, the Bronx, the Dictators, the Vibrators, Radio Birdman, the Dwarves, the Queers, Chixdiggit!, The Hanson Brothers, and many more. In addition, DeeCRACKS are one of only a few European bands to be found on the renowned US label Pirates Press Records and are thus label colleagues of greats such as Rancid, Cock Sparrer and Bouncing Souls.
