Salò - Hardcore Is Dead Tour 2026

Pop is dead. Punk was never to be grasped. Hardcore? Also dead.

What remains is SALÒ - the anarcho-pop-punk poet from Vienna, who shakes up club stages with his emotional punch and sharp social criticism. After his acclaimed album 'Problemzone Mensch' (December 2024), the next stage of escalation is here:

HARDCORE IST TOT TOUR 2026 - a liturgy for lost souls with glitter under their eyes and weakening WiFi. New anthems for broken hearts, new looks for broken bodies. Between punk, electroclash and capitalism therapy, SALÒ sings of love, anger and excessive demands in the now. With smug mockery, unconditional self-irony and radical vulnerability, SALÒ makes music for an overwrought generation - loud, unruly, danceable - and each of his lines hits the heart.

SALÒ is coming to the HARDCORE IST TOT TOUR 2026 with a new album (release date: April 26) and an excessive live show, angrier, louder and more intimate than ever. The advance single "JELLO BIAFRA", named after the legendary Dead Kennedys frontman, shows unmistakably where the journey is heading: "Rent is not getting more expensive - rent is being made more expensive" - a sentence like a guillotine that no one can take their head off. "JELLO BIAFRA" is not just a song. It is an acoustic pamphlet, a manifest blow to the sterile corridors of late capitalist rental contracts.

SALÒ is pop with attitude, glamour with dirt, punk with synthesizer. Anyone who experiences it live knows: this is not a show - this is escalation with depth. SALÒ dances on the ruins of masculinity, morality and the mainstream. He makes noise that lasts.
