@moralbombing x @ritesofspringfest 2026 - Day I - Friday, May 8th
Obacht! A band name like Moral Bombing already speaks for itself (they haven’t even needed a press text so far). The band from western Germany has no trouble living up to it: “geht halt einfach krass aufs Maul,” as our very own Jany puts it.
Their blazing brand of emoviolence and (organic) metalcore cuts through bone (perhaps even crushing it!) and close to the heart, too. We obviously love bands that balance grinding force with raw intensity and emotional depth.
Their music acts “as a cathartic space — honest, vulnerable and powerful,” dealing with themes of “healing, love, trauma, intense emotions and spirituality,” as the band describes it. We nod in approval and are delighted to host the Dortmunder*innen’s first show in Munich at our Rites of Spring festival.
10/10 energetic.
10/10 powerful.
10/10 somewhat hateful!
