Soft Play
We’d like to introduce you to Soft Play, a British punk duo that stands and falls on the duo of Laurie Vincent and Isaac Holman. After a hiatus of several years, the band formerly known as SLAVES have rekindled the spark and returned to the world with a new name, Soft Play. The band didn’t crumble from the critics, on the contrary they managed to turn the giant shitstorm in comments caused by the name change into lyrical mastery in the single Punk’s Dead. She laughed at all the smart-asses very intelligently and, most importantly, she’s moving on. Heavy Jelly’s new record is running like a well-oiled machine and we can’t wait to hear it live.
Kid Kapichi
The English band Kid Kapichi is slowly but surely making its way into the consciousness of the general public. They have already played a few shows in the Czech Republic, and those who have seen them live will definitely want to see them again. Kid Kapichi are one of those bands that are where they are, mainly thanks to hard work. Their music is straightforward, wholesomely pissed off, funny and melodic at the same time. Centered guitars and strong melodies, that’s Kid Kapichi in a nutshell.
Vypsaná Fixa
Pardubice band Vypsaná fiXa will perform at Mighty Sounds for the first time. The band has been active since 1994 and since then has been successfully crisscrossing festivals and clubs all over the Czech Republic with its mix of indie punk. Vypsaná fiXa has won the hearts of fans mainly thanks to the completely original poetics of the bandleader and frontman Márdi and the melodies that get under the skin. We are looking forward to this premiere!
Berlin Manson
The Slovak post-punk trio made their mark on the music public in 2022, when they released the striking single “Netancujem, nodem hlavou”. Berlin Manson thus introduced a specific expression and aesthetic for the band, which they subsequently began to present. It’s a kind of mix of rap, punk and even a dose of irony. In 2024 they released their last album so far, POOR BUT SEXY. It is their first conceptually coherent work yet, dealing with life in the Eastern European version of late capitalism.
