Flipper

Post-hardcore/noise rock/punk legends Flipper and their new vocalist will play some shows on both coasts this year, before hitting the Mossdown Meltdown festival...

The festival holds its 2022 edition on July 2 and 3 in Oakland, CA.

“A virus may scare the punk rock world out of Oakland in July but we’ll scare it right back on Halloween weekend," says Boogaloo host and trash maestro John Waters. "Trick or treat, we can’t be beat! Burger Boogaloo 2020: a Monster Mash to top them all!”

This week's episode features music from Georgia Mac, Vampire Weekend, Stormzy, Health & Xiu Xiu, Duster, FKA twigs, Bikini Kill, Pixies, Pansy Division, Madness, Plastic Bertrand, Circle Jerks, and more.

The 2020 edition of Burger Boogaloo happens July 11 & 12 at Mosswood Park in Oakland, CA and the lineup also includes Flipper, Carbonas, Bleached and more. John Waters hosts once again, too.

With David Yow as frontman, Flipper's 40th anniversary tour crashed into NYC on Thursday night for a show at soon-to-close Brooklyn Bazaar and, as you might expect, it was bananas.

This week's show featured songs by Misfits, DIIV, Big Thief, Nick Cave, Vivian Girls, Luna, Lightning Bolt, Kim Gordon, Matt Berninger & Phoebe Bridgers, Gang Starr, Oh Sees, and more.

TR/ST, Tobacco, Beak>, Lala Lala, Ryley Walker, David J, Night Beats, and more have also been added to the 2019 Levitation Festival runs November 7-10 in downtown Austin.
