🎸 Blackout Problems

About

Blackout Problems are a Munich-based alternative rock band formed in 2012 by Mario Radetzky, Marcus Schwarzbach and Michael Dreilich, later joined by guitarist Moritz Hammrich. Their sound blends punk energy with dark pop electronics and socially charged lyrics - touching on climate, racism and political populism - and has earned them a devoted following across the German-speaking world. Four studio albums chart a steady climb: Holy (2016, #57 DE), Kaos (2018, #25 DE), Dark (2021, #12 DE) and RIOT (2024, via Sony Music), the latter recorded as a trio after a lineup change. They run their own Munich Warehouse label and have shared stages with Enter Shikari, Fever333 and Royal Republic.
