CELA NR 3 - Per Tempus 1985-2020 [2021]

Seventeen melodic songs, very varied anniversary album with many new songs and a few old hits in alternative versions by this Polish combo from Grudziądz, inspired by such legendary bands as Ramones, Sham 69 or Buzzcocks. Orginally formed 1985 as Zanik Pamięci (Memory Loss). In 1986, in the train, which the band went to a concert in nearby Toruń, there were quarrels, which resulted in a forced stay in the Grudziądz detention facility. As if to commemorate that event, the group changed its name to Cela Nr 3. In 1987 they released their first Tape To My and that was it. It tooks more than ten years before the second tape, Kwiaty, and a live tape in 2000 were released. Finally, the first vinyl album Jedynka followed in 2001. The band's most recent sign of life is a live CD, Bulbojugend Live Series Vol.1, which was released in July 2023 on Bulbojugend Records. During more than thirty years of playing together six releases were brought among the people (some of them only on tapes). This particular platter features Gruby (vocals/guitar), Dee Dee (guitar/vocals), Anda (bass), Melody (drums) and it's an amazingly good one.

V/A - 1984: The First Sonic World War 1984

This great Compilation is not really new in Blogland but this is my copy and all scans are within and I think, the 1984 serie by the French label New Wave Records has spawned a remarkable series of international combos over time that sooner or later made it to some notoriety. The first part consists mainly French sounds, but that changed with each additional one and bands from all over the world were asked to send their demos for the following volumes and exclusive, four comps in all, were created. Rare items these days I would say. A short review: "This French Sampler contains a wide variety of Punk styles: classical, garage, thrash, skunk (big in France), and drum-machine/synth Punk (which the French seem to have cornered the market on). Some choice thrash, and there’s lots of good stuff and a dozen more. Tres bien!" (Tim Yohannan, MRR #15 • July 1984) A little Oi! stuff is also there. I like the slab for its perfect mix of songs and the artwork is also excellent. Never boring and selectable at any time. It's getting warm today, so a little trip to the lake... music on.

KONWENT A - Czerwień I Biel 2013

Interesting noises now by a combo, you should have on your radar: Konwent A a four piece which formed 1983 in Gdańsk and despite the fact that it existed for only four years, they were probably the first Polish Punkband whose trademark was a female singer. The musicians emigrated from Poland, and circa 2012 the core/founders of Konwent A, Żaneta (vocals) & Robert (guitars), met at Whetstone Music Studio in London and recorded their first album entitled Czerwień I Biel (Red & White), this contains almost all of Konwent’s biggest hits from the Eighties and is really another long-waited and brilliant debut of one more important band in the history of the Polish underground scene; Fourteen smasher with beautiful harmonious vocals (especially when both voices are active), breathtaking sound and damn fresh songs. This record is a real find, released via Jimmy Jazz Records in an edition of 512 copies, 200 on red vinyl. So buy a copy if you see one within reach.

V/A - Oi! Rare & Exotica Vol.2 1999

Let's continue with the second unofficial Volume of massive rare Oi! goodies and again released via Teenage Rebel Records and the selection is excellently cast with twenty-three tracks, which stretched out the middle finger towards to the boring establishment. This time with an info sheet and a few words from it: "Again a lot of more or less unknown bands from all over the world are featured with recordings from 1981-1998. Everybody should know the 80's Oi! bands from England, so there's no need to present them here again like on many other Oi! Compis. So discover something new, have fun and always remember: The world is big, manigfold and real Oi! is anti-rascist (which doesn't mean it's leftwing)." Together with Volume 1 this record offers a lot of exclusive material, good songs and every band doesn't sound dull or wooden, what means in the end: no stupid music goulash. Get both!

V/A - 1984 The Third 2LP 1987

One of my favorite compilations is the double album by the important French label New Wave Records, who released a small series called 1984 in the Eighties with tons of international bands and every release is a direct hit in my opinion. Also Freunde, Volume 3 was pressed 1500 times and there are thirty-eight bands/songs to discover, plus a detailed booklet with lots of infos and lyrics and and and... I love such loving and detailed slabs because they not only make an impact acoustically, but also visually and I'm certainly not alone there, and on days off like these, the pleasure is doubly pleasant. The only downside is that I have to write so much and don't like to write much. I've already thought about not writing anything anymore, but I don't like that either. What a conflict hahaha... Now I'll open a beer and the subtle reference to Volume 4 (the last part) and the first two will follow... someday!

DEZERTER - Kolaboracja 1987

Let's move to east Europe and we meet one of the most famous bands there and the following info is from somewhere, here we go: SS-20 were formed in May 1981, in the Warszawa region. All four members were very young, and more or less learned to play their instruments by forming this group. The original line-up was Robert "Robal" Matera (vocals/guitar), Darek "Stepa" Stepnowski (bass) and Krzysiek Grabowski (drums). Soon after, Darek "Skandal" Hain joined on lead vocals. By the beginning of '83, the group had introduced the new name, Dezerter, at which point the members had solidified their sound, as a hardcore punk group, certainly the second generation. Sierpien 1983, Dezerter were granted the opportunity to record a EP under supervision of the state label Tonpress. The general commission selected four songs they found most lyrically acceptable. 1987 Skandal parted ways with Dezerter, and their first concert without him would be the Jarocin Festival, at which point Robal took over on lead vocals. This same year, the group's meeting with Canadian punk Joey Shithead of D.O.A. brought them the issue of their first full length, Underground Out Of Poland. Released by Maximum RockNRoll Collective,  the record consisted of live recordings from their demos, and the four tracks from their Tonpress 7", re-issued without authorization of the label. 

The case was with all punk bands to record with Tonpress, that the label usually found some way of the rights to the recording remaining in custody of the state label, and the group recieving absolutely zero royalties. This year, the group also made their first professional studio LP, Kolaboracja. The album was issued under a vinyl-club, and only available through the post. Released by the Razem Label, 5000 pressed. Today, a very rare item. Great Stuff!

V/A - Red Rossetten Records Proudly Present EP 1995

Well, your participation in the prediction game is very modest and I think it's a shame, try something different and it's certainly interesting which teams you would favor. Well, we have a handful and I'm setting the deadline for your last instincts on Sunday evening 18:00 CET.

The following small but great 7Inch fits perfectly to Euro 2020, all six bands come from countries that take part in the tournament and half of them were recorded live, all known with famous Gassenhauer and the record should be only appeared as promo, at least readable on the labels, but I think that's a hoax. Never mind, a fertile slab and convincing like yesterday's appearance by the Italian team. Now the second game with Switzerland, which is traded as secret favorite.. hmmm, let's see.

TZN XENNA - 1981-2011 EP 2012

Exotic punk now while watching the soccer match vs Denmark and I have much info about the When, Where + Whys: TZN Xenna is a punk combo from Warsaw and one of the earliest in Poland. The band was founded in August 1981 by vocalist Krzysztof "Zygzak" Chojnacki, guitarist Marek "Markus" Kucharski, drummer Tomasz "Gogo Szulc" Kożuchowski and bassist Piotr "Czomby" Dubiel, who was soon replaced by Jacek "Sydney" Zientała (as Dubiel became the guitarist for Deuter). Initially, the band used the name Kamash And The Ekers. Their rehearsals took place in the "Skarpa" Community Center, where the musicians played their first concert on September 9, 1981. In autumn 1982 the band played the "Rock Galicja" tour with Dezerter and Deuter in the southern part of Poland, performing in, among other places, Rzeszów and Krosno. In August, they won the qualifying rounds at the "Open Rock" festival in Krakow's "Rotunda", performing alongside groups such as Turbo and Stalowy Bagaż, which allowed them to perform at the festival in Jarocin. However, the musicians declined to do so, describing it as a "militia festival". At that time, the group appeared in a report by Telewizja Polska on subcultures ("The Way of Life" by Ewa Skurczyńska), as well as in a program about Polish punks produced by the West German television ARD. In 1983, Zygzak was replaced by Falkonetti, as new singer. Not much later, the musicians stopped their activities. Gogo Szulc left to join Tilt, while Sydney, in the second half of the 1980s, started a short collaboration with Robert Gawliński (then ex-Madame) in the form of the band The Didet Bidet.

In 1984, TZN Xenna returned with a line-up of Zygzak, Markus, Falkonetti (bass guitar) and new drummer Dariusz "Dynia" Dynowski. With this line-up the band performed in October in the Warsaw club "Stodoła", playing alongside with Siekiera and Youth Brigade. The following year, the musicians performed, among others at the "Róbrege" festival, and recorded four songs in the Tonpress studio.

In 1986 Robert "Mionek" Micorek joined the band as a second guitarist. This five-member TZN Xenna line-up played concerts until mid-1987, when the musicians decided to quit. Zygzak later continued playing in the bands Lumpers and The Klaszcz. Dynowski joined Deuter between 2000 - 2003 as a drummer. 2011 they played an concert as part of the 2nd edition of the Rock na Bagnie festival in Strękowa Góra and the year ended with the release of their second EP, TZN Xenna 1981-2011. In April 2012 the band entered the studio and recorded material for their third EP, Ścierwo and performed at the Jarocin Rock Festival for the first time in its history. On September 1, 2012 they played their first foreign gig in history in Berlin and in November, the first studio album Pogo Girls saw the light of day

KSU - s/t LP 1989

Debut record by this punx on Pronit and KSU is one of the oldest Polish bands, founded in 1977 in the southeastern town of Ustrzyki Dolne (in the Bieszczady Mountains). According to its founder, Eugeniusz Olejarczyk, the band was the fruit of listening of radio stations from Western Europe, in which several punkrock songs were played. Young listeners from Ustrzyki decided to play covers of Black Sabbath, Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin, and in 1978 they came up with the name KSU, which comes from car licence plates, issued by the Krosno Voivodeship authorities for vehicles from Ustrzyki Dolne. With new name came new music - KSU began playing songs inspired by Sex Pistols, Damned, and UK Subs.

In 1980, due to friendship with Kazimierz Staszewski, KSU travelled across Poland to Kolobrzeg, to participate in the New Wave Festival. The band was dubbed a sensation, but soon afterwards its members were one after one called up to the Polish Army and KSU ceased to exist. In 1988 KSU recorded a LP "Pod Prąd" ("Against The Flow"), which was warmly welcomed by its fans. Currently KSU consists of four members, including Olejarczyk. Its lyrics are in most cases written by Maciej Augustyn, the brother of former singer Bogdan "Bohun" Augustyn. A total of twelve albums were recorded and the band's last album Two Nations, released on December 8, 2014 and to my knowledge still active. Thirteen decent songs with a pinch of Oi!

V/A - Jak Punk To Punk 1986

My holiday is within reach and until then a little decent punkrock and a short detour to our European neighbors to Poland. In 1986 Tonpress released this nice compilation with the crème de la créme of great bands at this time which recorded at least two albums. I had a terrible rip of this record and I am grateful for this version. Let's see if I still have time to post more today. Top record, Top songs!!

ABADDON - Wet Za Wet 1986

If you've got a weak heart, this is not the record for you! If you don't like to hear youngsters making terrific noises so that your balls bleed, this is not the record for you! If you wanna know what I'm talkin' about, read on. Abaddon were Polish punx and formed 1982 as Partyzantka Miejska (Urban Guerilla). Soon after they changed their name to Abaddon. About that time the band played a short tour in Yugoslavia. Money earned on that tour was used to finance a recording session in Ljubliana and the result was this musical high voltage called "Wet Za Wet". Nine shorts, so enormous that I can't stop playing this fuckin' shit again. The album was released by the French label New Wave Records and contains eight decent and tight Punk ragers and a great roots/dub song. Abbadon split up in 1987 after Kiki left the band but in the following year they played few occasional shows with the new vocalist Cymes. The band reformed in 2001 with a partialy new line-up, released the album "Godzina Krzywd" in 2004 and split up a year later. The band is also represented on numerous compilations, so please don't cry!

DE PRESS - Lars Hertervig 12'' 1981

Here is the second release as 12'' from De Press on Siberia Music and it starts a bit melancholy with the title track and on the flip two decent mid-tempo numbers. A great mix of Wave/Punk in any case and who Lars Hertervig is remains a mystery, at least for me. A shallow start into the new week and I hope your weekend was as famos as mine.

V/A - Cultural Compost Pit! 1985

Pretty awesome tape from Mothra Productions with thirty five bands from around the world with huge tophits. Excellent selection I can only say!, a brilliant Hardcore Punk onslaught pulled by rare 7Inches and other secret sources with nice little info-sheet makes this an excellent stew with hot spices and bite-sized chunks, add a slice of rye bread and beer and it's done... but beware! breaks through well, so don't forget toilet paper.

DEZERTER - Underground Out Of Poland 1987

The Football World Cup is currently and I try to watch every game but the fucking work doesn't give me the opportunity but anyway, that's the reason why I post not much these days. Now after the Spain match this nice compilation from Maximumrocknroll ‎with Dezerter from Warsaw. Formed by electronic technical high school students Krzysztof Grabowski (drums + lyrics) and Robert "Robal” Matera (guitar + vocals). The band was originally called SS-20 (after Soviet ballistic missiles, they were stationed, among other places, in Poland), the lineup was augmented by: Darek „Stepa” Stepnowski (bass/vocals) and Darek "Skandal” Hajn (vocals). They're very successful and known for the fast and angry music and I would say the most famous Polish punk export. Lots of records were released and on this eighteen slab the 1983 Ku Przyszłości EP plus live and outtake recordings, all in all a solid overview of this gifted combo.

V/A - Victim Of Safety Pin 2003

A request of a visitor from Poland next and I am happy because I didn't listen to the LP for a long time and so I came in touch again: Polski Punk Underground 1977-82. Released on Supreme Echo and 1100 copies were pressed. This record is absolute punk. The sound quality is not the best, sometimes close to the pain barrier but all these tunes are all originals, rare live and rehearsal recordings which would otherwise have remained lost in the eternal blackness and this would be fatal if you look at the songlists. On the MySpace site from Supreme Echo I have this for you: "The critically acclaimed, first and most accurate documentation on the development of punk, new wave, and hardcore in the former People's Republic of Poland. This document provides not only in depth history's of each band featured, but also a well constructed history of rock and roll in Poland, and it's eventual evolution into punk - and how it all fits into the sociological, cultural, and political world around it. Seriously, I feel that this is one of the most interesting and crucial pieces of punk rock's forgotten history, and I recommend it most highly.” (MRR-Nov.2003) - Seventeen songs, fourteen bands, twenty page booklet with massive essay and biographies (unfortunately not inside). - Top record and it's no wonder this sucker was quickly sold out.

BRYGADA KRYZYS - Live 1982

A nice little live album by this Polish combo which was recorded sometime in 1981 with eight good songs, released via Fresh Records. Musically you should not expect the typical kbd sound, rather over five minutes numbers mixed with two-three ones. The quality is quite okay and if you need more input so click to their s/t LP which I posted months ago and more infos. Now a hot shower and afterwards soccer World Cup qualification match against Northern Ireland.

DEZERTER - s/t EP 1993

Dezerter, founded as SS-20 in 1981 in Warsaw, is one of the most popular punk bands from Poland. They had to change their original name to Dezerter because of the reaction of the Communist authorities. Besides a band had very controversial lyrics and being constantly attacked by state censorship they made a choice to change a name without change anything else. To become less recognizable by regime they often changed name at posters, sometimes written as "De-zerter", sometimes as "The Zerter" - it was cheap and efficient trick to cheat an opponent. Dezerter debuted during the Mokotow Music Autumn Festival, in November 1981. In 1983 Dezerter recorded a four-song EP, Ku Przyszlosci (Into The Future) also known as Spytaj Milicjanta (Ask (a question to) a cop). The record was issued by the state label Tonpress and it was very warmly welcomed by fans, with 50,000 copies sold. With fast guitar riffs and intelligent lyrics written by Grabowski, Dezerter's concerts have drawn thousands of fans and their LPs are very popular, especially in the late '80s and early '90s.

DEADLOCK - Ambicja 1981

Puuhhhhh, what an exciting evening yesterday and I'm completely through, wanted nothing post today but now I'm sitting here and listen to this record by polish Deadlock, founded 1979 in Gdansk by guitarist Macieja "Brunet" Wiliński, bassist "Kołacz" (which soon exchanged Jacek "Fidel" Tobias), drummer Jacek "Luther" Lenartowicza and vocalist Bogdan "Plexi" Rzeźniczak. The club "Medic" organized early 80s many concerts and Deadlock had their appearance there, among others. After some line-up changes the band moved to Warsaw and recorded the songs for Ambicja, released by the French label Blitzkrieg Records in the same year. They had again some line-up changes, played gigs, made songs for compilations (Best Perfumes Of The Revolution) and in 1983 the band broke up. In 1985, Brunet committed suicide by jumping out of a window in Gdansk and in 2004 died drummer Jacek. Here are now eight charming songs in a nice rehearsal room character... and I lay myself in bed again.. puhhhhh!
