The Bandgeek Mafia

Since 2001, THE BANDGEEK MAFIA redefines the world of ska-punk music in their own way. The debut Paint Your Target impressed fans and media, due to its mix of ska-off beats, melancholic melodies blended with aggressive shouts and screams and stomping rhythms. Hooklines combined with mosh parts are the unique! They cleverly combine sticking melodies, powerful riffs, excellent brass and aggressive shouts and can in that way uplift themselves from a lot of bands coming from that genre. Though mixing ska music with emo elements seems to be capital sin for some guys, THE BANDGEEK MAFIA proves strikingly that such a fusion arrests one’s attention and intoxicates. Their debut album PAINT YOUR TARGET, released in 2007, was signed by Long Beach Records Europe and from that moment the band played over 400 Shows across Germany and Europe and toured with following US Bands: Reel Big Fish, Mad Caddies, Less than Jake, Pennywise, Lagwagon, No Use For a Name, The Flatliners, Voodoo Glow Skulls, Slightly Stoopid, MxPx, Strung Out and many more...!!! After the 2nd full lenght NO DISGUISE (release 2010 on Long Beach Records Europe) the band toured again and is going to release their new EP „Flyweights“ on 4th OCT. 2013 with 3 new tracks + 3 bonus live tracks from a gig in their hometown TRIER! Check out the new Vibes...you´ll love it!
