6 concerts

Formed in 1979 in Orange County, California by Mike Palm, Agent Orange pioneered surf punk by combining classic surf guitar with hardcore punk. They are best known for their 1980 single Bloodstains and their 1981 debut album Living in Darkness.

Messer Chups

Messer Chups is a surf- and lounge-infused garage-punk trio led by Oleg “Guitaracula,” with Svetlana “Zombierella” and Signor Mattia. Their catchy music blends vintage Russian melodies, 50s–60s film samples, and cult horror visuals live.
