Flash Forward • Jahresabschluss Konzer

FLASH FORWARD from the Ruhr area are an indispensable force in the German music scene. With their unique blend of alternative rock and catchy pop hooklines, they delight visitors to the club scene, large halls and muddy festival grounds alike. Their tours through Germany and appearances at renowned festivals such as Hurricane, Southside, Open Flair and Highfield speak for their growing popularity.

Their latest album "Renegade" is an emotional powerhouse that contains a lot. A lot of fear, a lot of trust, a lot of anger, a lot of hope. It calls on us to face up to the objective and subjective challenges of life, to open our eyes and to stand up for values such as self-determination, equality, tolerance and charity. The sound of "Renegade" combines modern pop elements with powerful guitar riffs and intense drums.

The previous albums "Endings = Beginnings" and "Golden Rust" paved the way for the band to rediscover themselves musically. "Golden Rust" reached number 61 in the German album charts and showed where the band was heading. With "Renegade", FLASH FORWARD continue on this path and continue to improve - the album reached number 49 in the German charts. The band proves once again that they can interpret the "pop" in "pop-punk" in a new and innovative way without losing their alternative roots.

The last few years have been particularly successful for FLASH FORWARD. Their appearances at major festivals, sold-out shows and support tours for big names in the scene such as You Me At Six, Enter Shikari, Deaf Havana, Emil Bulls and Palaye Royale mark important milestones in their career.

FLASH FORWARD ask the important question: What will become of us if we remain silent about the things that really matter? Their music provides a powerful answer that must not only be heard, but also deeply felt.
