+++ originated from the East Berlin Punk legend REASORS EXZESZ (est. 1985), continued in 1991 as ROUGH CALLED with a stage debut at an inter-national festival in Nancy and changed the name to PUNISHABLE ACT in 1993 +++ hundreds of concerts later Punishable Act is still the same in the most positive sense: we still have a lot of anger, yet we enjoy to play and do so energetically! We don't follow trends, we never finished no school (old school, new school, high school). Our identity is classical clean cut HARDCORE! +++ we have performed on a variety of larger European festivals: among others "OPEN CORE", "SUMMER MADNESS", "REPTILE FESTIVAL", "HARDCORE UNITED" and "WITH FULL FORCE". We also went on the festival tour "SUPPORT YOUR HARDCORE - SCENE" with RYKER'S | MURDERED ART | 3RD STATEMENT | PROPHECY OF RAGE, furthermore we went on tours through Europe with MADBALL | CROWN OF THORNZ | RYKER'S and on tours through Germany with RAW POWER Of course we did numerous gigs with the whole range of "who is who" from within the hardcore scene: AGNOSTIC FRONT • SICK OF IT ALL • SHEER TERROR • 25 TA LIFE • MERAUDER • SKARHEAD • D.I. • NO USE FOR A NAME • BEOWÜLF • LEEWAY • PROPAIN • SNAPCASE • IGNITE • GANG GREEN etc. +++ we are on stage with a stable line-up: Mike (voc), Sven (g), Botte (g) and Mario (bg). Solely the drummer position has been vacant, so the last one to join us was Hermann (before BLECHREIZ / MAD SIN). throughout the years Punishable Act has produces six CD´s: "infect" (NOISE, 1994), "s/t" (NOISE, 1996), "where it came from" (MAD MOB, 1997) • "against the stream" (MAD MOB, 1999), "anti-vision" (DIE HARD/HARDBOILED, 2004 produced with the participation of Freddy and Hoya /Madball) and we turn up on the sampler "we'll never be tamed" (MAD MOB, 1994) +++ after the release, we went on tour, did gigs with IGNITE • STREET DOGS • BLOOD FOR BLOOD etc., made some festival-shows (WITH FULL FORCE, EASTPACK RESISTANCE TOUR, with participation on the tour-sampler, etc.) +++ in early 2005, we were a part of the UNITY-TOUR with AGNOSTIC FRONT • DIECAST and DEATH BEFORE DISHONOUR and did a lot of other shows +++ winter 2005/spring 2006 we spent our time in a studio and recorded two new CD´s, "from the heart to the crowd" (good old stuff new recorded with a lot of guest-vocals, release 12.01.2007) and "rhythm of destruction" (release spring 2007 on mad mob records) +++
P.A. - together, always, everyday!
