THIS IS FOR THE COMPACT DISC EDITION.
ŚMIERĆ - "Paranoja" CD
ŚMIERĆ - "Paranoja" LP Was a record I discovered in doing a "Year end best" list a year or three ago, and was just really struck by this Swedish band's combination of searing female vocals sung in polish, the classic sturdy Polish hardcore riffage and stomp, and the dark moodiness of both that Polish Influence and a bit of that dialogue between the Mid-south downturned Hardcore and Swedish D-Beat. We are co-releasing their newest LP with the legendary Polish label Nikt Nic Nie Wie, but also received copies of their first two albums on both LP and CD.. I highly recommend this record is You love classic old Polish hardcore.
Here's NNNW's Description:
"Their second, "pandemic" album - seems they evolve the same formula, this time again reaching beyond the rich Polish punk heritage. You can hear echoes of the artists with punk roots who grew big and popular Maanam, Kult, the great early 20th century literature (Gombrowicz's "Ferdydurke") - yet you an still catch some of your faves - DEUTER, SIEKIERA. and surprisingly enough - there are some lines in Swedish this time, a poetry by Yolanda Aurora Bohm Ramirez.
SMIERC means „death” in Polish - and this new band is from... Sweden. Their debut album was a powerful tribute to Polish punk (and beyond), sung in Polish. As far as I know it’s the first such an effort in the world - just try to pronounce their name correctly! They describe their music as straight forward, yet melodic, d-beat orientated punk. Well, I find their interest in Polish bands you love... Post Regiment, Dezerter, Homomilitia are all „heard”, but the effect is so original. Gaining previous experience in bands such as Idiot Ikon, Imperial Leather and Abductee S.D shows...
