The Casualties

On 10 June 2026 at Klub Zaścianek in Kraków, The Casualties roll in with the grit of New York’s street punk. Formed in 1990, the band forged its sound at the crossroads of UK ’80s punk and hardcore: fast tempos, shouted refrains, a raw guitar front, and lyrics locked on social precarity, urban violence and political tension. After early demos, they set the tone with For the Punx (1997), Underground Army (1998) and Stay Out of Order (2000), building a steady presence across DIY circuits.

The run continued with Die Hards (2001), On the Front Line (2004) and its Spanish version En La Línea del Frente (2005), then Under Attack (2006), We Are All We Have (2009), Resistance (2012) and Chaos Sound (2016). In 2017, vocalist David Rodriguez stepped in, leading to Written in Blood (2018) and a line that keeps the core intact: compact, chant-ready hooks and a relentless pace tied to the NYC scene and its offshoots worldwide. Long-haul touring across the Americas, Europe and Japan feeds a setlist that cuts from early anthems to newer tracks, straight and unvarnished.
