Michael Schade ist ein Liedermacher aus Heidelberg.
Im Gegensatz zu den meisten anderen Liedermachern unserer Zeit, wie Joint Venture oder Fred Timm, sind seine Texte sehr politisch.
Politisch kann man ihn links außen einorden, in den älteren Liedern eher im roten, heutzutage dann doch mehr im schwarz-roten Lager.
Er steht meistens alleine mit seiner Akkustikgitarre auf der Bühne, auf seinem neuen Album "Mein Schrei", dass Anfang Februar erschienen ist, sind primär E-Gitarren und in einem Lied sogar ein Chor zu hören.

Dog Eat Dog made its big breakthrough in 1994 with the hit single No Fronts and the album All Boro Kings. The story behind Dog Eat Dog started a little earlier though... Dog Eat Dog has actually been around since 1990, when Dave Neabore and Sean Kilkenny decided to form a band of their own after previously playing in another band called Mucky Pup. A short while later Dave and Sean were accompanied by John Connor who was to act as the voice of the band and Dan Nastasi, who would play the second guitar.
Government Of Youth (GOY for short) was a political hardcore-punk ensemble hailing from Alphen aan den Rijn, the Netherlands. The band consisted of Niek (guitar/vocals), Mix (guitar/vocals), PeeWee (bass) and Bas (drums). The band played for three years and released one demo-cd. In 2000 GOY broke up due to creative differences.
The Guilty Pleasures are a punk band from Lancaster, England. Influenced by bands such as Anti-Flag and The Unseen.

They have also shared the stage with acts such as MC Lats, The Subhumans and The UK Subs.
Recently they have been getting radio play on Mike Davies' Radio 1 Punk Show and they got a KKKK album review in Kerrang magazine (KKKKK being the highest possible rating).
They play Lisbon, the city of the countryside, chimneys and white domes, sceneries of a lost past, the fado, the loiter western, all together in a voodoo of emotions, the Tagus river, misplaced lovers, abandoned angels in the crossroads of destiny, flowers with misplaced colours, saints, burning hot chambers, naked guitars, thrown on the street, double basses on fire, top hats, chickens on the loose and things that roll on the street.
Risen from the ashes of some kickass eastern Germany juvenile bands in 2001. Located in Dresden they released 3 full lenght albums and a 7inch EP. Strong influenes by american bands like Bonecrusher, The Generators, Street Dogs, Bouncing Souls and Social D.
