Hardcore has put The Netherlands on the world map as being the leading country in harder styles globally. It all started here back in the early nineties and even nowadays, The Netherlands can still call herself the most influential country within this particular style.

Needless to say the massive Dutch hardcore scene delivered loads of hardcore legends over the years. One of those legends have been and are still very active at the absolute top for over 13 years. Both in their music as their lifestyle, there are not many acts and artists like Neophyte who literarily live, breath and eat hardcore and turned it into a lifestyle of their own. Their documentary DVD called “13 Jaar Terreur”, released in 2005, already proved to be a great registration of the life of Neophyte (both on as off the road) but in 2006, the whole world will discover the “Neophyte impact” when they will be touring the world. Accompanied by the entire Neophyte Records artist roster like DJ Panic, Evil Activities, Masters of Ceremony, Tha Playah and DJ Dazzler, along with guest appearances from (a.o.) The Darkraver, DJ Promo, Paul Elstak and Vince, Neophyte will bombard a total of 30 countries with their stunning show!

The official tour started off on the 27 th of January in Scotland while the first tour date for Dutch and German hardcore lovers was set on the 28 th of January. On Saturday the 28 th of January, the Bridge in Meppen ( Germany ) has been rebuilt into a temple for true hardcore minded party people.
