Longing for old school grind core, the way punks played it back in the 80s? Us too! Here is HIV from Poland. They even recorded both sides of their debut album on different dates, if you know what we mean… The band started back in 2018 as a side project of members of such bands...
It came to me as a surprise, mainly because I wasn’t following both, HOW LONG? and ZATRATA camps regularly, despite playing with them from time to time or seeing them live here and there. So a double win for me – a surprise from bands I love. It’s a fresh record released by a...
OK, it’s street punk, some say it’s oi! punk or pop punk, so I am the last person to review such record and this review is going to be useless. That said, let’s have a look at some songs here. LAZY CLASS come from Warsaw, Poland and having issued a few EPs, “Interesting...
Featuring members from APATIA, NEXT VICTIM or MIND POLLUTION, DYYM mix what’s best in hardcore punk not sticking to one chosen course. This means each track surprises you with different intensity, arrangements and vocal styles. You’ve got trans noise interrupted by relaxing drum beat in “Protect the animals” or pretty fast hardcore punk with...

MORDERCA (The Killer) come from Poland and they are a new band. They have just released their demo on Bandcamp and are said to be studio band only. What do I start with? There is so much happening here. The opening track starts with a nice and furious blast, that changes into punk d-beat...
It’s one of the most important records to come out of Polish DIY punk scene and it’s all on a very personal level for me. First of all, the people who recorded this album were or are good friends of mine. Mind you, some of them are no longer with us, hence the past tense....
It’s getting cramped on my fave Polish hardcore shelf. That’s right. NEGATIVE VIBES are that good and absolutely up my street when it comes to the hardcore style they play, the lyrics, the artwork and the whole production. They started about two years ago and are acting quite fast. The self titled EP was...
PROTEIN are straight edge. Well, I am not but I do love all SxE bands that show their sincerity, modesty and do not make a fuss about being straight edge. And I do like good, fast, US inspired hardcore from the 80’s and the 90’s, when all the hardcore heads were buzzing with ideas...
MOSKWA was formed in 1983 in Lodz, central Poland, and was one of those bands that along with DEZERTER and a few others shaped the minds of young punks in communist Poland. Their demo tape “Nigdy!” released in 1986, that made a huge impact on the minds of the young of that generation, was...

Time has come to record a full length LP and, hopefully, become a regular and active band around the continent. “Cialo Obce” has...
