Raise your voice!

Hey punx,
here is our last gig at Gromka, Metelkova, Ljubljana. We shared stage with Baka Yaro and Tragedy. Lots of people showed up and we deeply appreciate everyone who wanted to check our set. We played a decent show probably one of the best in the country we live. We always played like it is our last gig, we gave it all as usual but this was for real our last gig. Lots of strong emotions went through our heads and a bitter taste was in our mouths. The last high-five ritual before the gig was priceless, haha. OK enough with the cheesiness, this ship sank and it is on the muddy bottom of these punk rock ocean, luckily the members survived! We are still on the surface active in different band.

Jaka and Jure are bringing heavy destruction with Leechfeast; Jaka, Jure and Andrej are involved in Paper Plane Crash doing some sweet postHC; I'm still singing for my good old band Human Host Body.

So the deal with this post is that our good friend Antonio recorded the gig and Jure edited it. And some of the songs have never been recorded. So if you missed the gig at least you can see it on your computer.

>> Manifest Pt.II

"These song is about us being part of the international DIY punk community. How it shaped us as individuals and mostly how these experience showed us the way DIY can be a weapon to fight the music industry and mostly how DIY is a weapon to be applied every day in our daily lives, how we can do thing on our own! It is also about the most important thing in the DIY punk community and that is friendship and trust toward our comrades. These is the glue that keeps all the thing together and make us strong. Don't get me wrong it is not another song about friendship and unity. It's a song how strong can we be when bounds like these work. These incredible feeling of trusting people and relying on them all around the globe is hard to describe. How much more we can do with attitudes like these! Remember we never lack of passion to set these heart on fire!"

>> Grinding Pressure

Sometimes life is hard like hell! We have to face so many expectations from the folks around us and then we have so much pressure on our self that we can't find a way out. Facing our fears is hard and sometimes we rather lock ourselves and isolate us from the world outside. You go to sleep and that you have all these anxious thoughts buzzing in your head that you can't sleep and sometimes this shit damages you so bad that you can get really sick. It is a tough fight!

>> V Pepel

Another song about life being hard on you, haha. The feeling of being lost and confused in these society which makes you think that your life choices are all wrong, but deep inside you know which way to go even in the mist of all expectations from these society you just know that it is the right way. You just need to hold on and maybe you will find an end to it.

>> Mother's Love

Well, it is an old song from our 7“ so I'll make it short. Relations between your close ones can be easily misunderstood but everyone just wants the best for you.

>> Manifest Pt.I

Hardcore punk scene is so polluted with bullshit, with things that were never meant to be part of these scene. It pissed me off when I see people label themselves as hardcore and wearing sweat-shop clothes, being macho, being sexist, homophobes, CONSUMERS! We(as a band) wanna separate ourselves from these stuff. Make it clear that what is hardcore punk and what is businessmen. Hardcore punk should be done with heart because this is the only way to do thing with passion. These is our manifest to prove you that thing can be done in a DIY way. To prove you wrong.

>> Road-side

This song is dedicated to everyone who inspired us on the road. To all the lovely people we meet on tour who find a way out from the gasps of these post-modern society. We live in a reality that force us to calculate the future, like what we gonna do when we grow up, which school go to earn more money, what to do when we graduate or who will take care of us when we retire. This song is for everyone who lives outside these maps written and dictated by this society and to encourage everyone who is on this way. We gonna meet each other soon around a camp fire singing song in a forest or on a rooftop of a occupied building! Just hold on and don't give up we will win!

>> Trn V Križ

Song about how our politicians use pro-gay propaganda to gain votes, but they are merely hypocrites! It is funny how we were right about left-winged politics being hypocrites, because right now there is a new pack of laws and rights connected with the family structure in making and guess what... under the pressure of the clero-fashist they canceled most of the gay right that they promoted during their campaigns. They canceled the right of gay marriage and gay couples could adopt children and now thanks to the christian homophobes they will need to wait for another 10 years that something will change. But what can you expect from a government which most of the highest members are gay but they just won't come out of the closet... Hail Satana!

The end

2010-11-18T18:10:00.004+01:00

Most of you already know, for those who don`t - we split up.

It`s been a great journey, we met so many awesome people over this last 2 years and we`ve seen places that really took our breath away.
There are too many people to thank, when I just wanna name a few the most important, another 10 pop in my head that I can`t forget and this could go on and on, so from the bottom of our hearts thanks to everyone who helped us in any kind of way, we really appreciate it and we love you!
Special thanks goes to Mare for everything he has done for us and of course Antonio and Teja for all their help.

If you`re interested in our other projects check out Human Host Body, Leechfeast and Paperplanecrash

I know everything sounds cheesy, but we really feel this way!

Love

Hey,

here I'm publishing photos from our last tour. Yeah, I know it was quite a long time ago. So, sorry for the delay. It was my fault, cause my old laptop died few months ago and I can't find the right software for Mac OSX.

May Tour (East Europe) 18.5. - 3.6.2010

Long Live Melete

WAZZ UP?!?

2010-08-13T19:00:00.004+02:00

It's been a while from our last post. It's summer time, vacations blablabla... and also we are on a little hiatus. After our last tour, Luka decided to take a brake and focus on college. He would like to finish his degree till the end of September. Due to his decision we canceled our September tour and also postponed recording of our LP. We will work on that one as soon he will be done with his current work.

Since we all love touring other members decide to start a new band, so we can still go on tour in September. This tour won't be so long as would be Melete's one, but still, better than nothing. We are called PAPERPLANECRASH, and if you would like to know more, check out: www.paperplanecrashpunk.blogspot.com

We have big plans for the future with both bands, so stay in touch.

Love, punk, passion

p.s. Watch out for Human host body (Luka's other band) new recordings. They are in mixing process, and what I heared I must say they did killer job.

THANXXX

2010-06-06T20:30:00.006+02:00

So sorry to all I don't remember right now, but you know we love you and we will always remember you. Ok, thanks to: Eszter, Dr. Slayer and Budapest punx to set 2 gigs for us, thanks to Botond for helping us with 2 last minute shows, Szeged crew, Suchar and Nowy Sacz drunks for a nice show and home made vodka, Dymek and squaters from Berza, Lublin anarchists for taking care for us, Pawel and All day hell guys for a great time in Warsaw, Maciek and Marian from Krakow, Sasa and Jolanda bar people for letting us stay in their house when we had a day off, Amy, Andy and EKH squaters, Pavilionul 32 to set a gig in Timisoara which was one of the best shows we have ever done, Spaske/Ground zero/ROIR crew for a great time in Novi Sad, Jasmin and Gonzo for helping us again in Zagreb, our brothers Aleks and Simon from Ilirska Bistrica, Boredom & Plague mass crew. In the end a special thank you to Jure who replaced our original bass player for a half of the tour, Spark, Shades of Grey for unforgettable 8 days and of course our boyfriends and girlfriends Nina, Mikey, Erik, Kim, Dave, Thijs, Peter, Jano and Vivaldo.

KILL DIY

2010-05-24T23:13:00.003+02:00

Hey,

we are in Krakow right now, one of the few occasions i can check the Internet. I checked our buddies BOLDRIDER blog. It's a skate blog made by our friends, who truly believe in a DIY way of doing stuff. We, as one of rare DIY/punk/alternative lifestyle supporters in our home town, feel really sad to see that people are trying to destroy actions that contribute to a social and cultural life in our town.
Sadly, post is not in English, but if you would like to find out something more about everything just comment the post and i think guys will be more than happy to translate it.

DIY OR DIE!!!!!!

Hey,

have you ever played in an apartment? Have you ever played in an apartment with DIY skate mini ramp and sauna at the same time? No? So, you have to come to the next concert in MiniKino in Dravograd!

Here are some photos from one of our best gig. Thanks to MiniKino crew for the invitation, Lele for the photos and Acrid Sunday for their sense of humour! :)

Dravograd Ludnica 3. 4. 2010

And here are two photos from afterparty in Rijeka where we shared stage with our buddies from All Day Hell and crazy spanish people from Diskoiraa.

You can also check out the clip of our set from Rijeka, but if I'm honest we sucked quiet a lot, so you can spend your time in a better way. :)

Take care, Jure

MISS TOUR LIFE

2010-03-10T19:54:00.015+01:00

Title says it all. We're home for a week now, all a bit depressed. Shitty daily routine again. Jure is working on his exams and he is really successful, Jaka is not doing anything special, Luka went to France to visit some friends and i spend 8 hours a day in a shitty office. But we have some big plans.
In the end of April we will close ourselves in the studio where we will record songs for our first LP. We are looking for some cool DIY labels to help us in this project. We are also doing some shows around and in May we go on tour again (still need some dates). See bellow. There you can also see our rough plan for the September tour. We just started booking it, so places can change a bit, but we hope we will do it that way. If you can help us just drop us a line...

Thanks
Melete

Here are some photos from the best tour I've ever gone through.

(The Best) Balkan Tour with Sand Creek Massacre 19. 2. - 25.2.2010

I miss each person I met on the tour and right now I'm in depressive mood, because the tour ended too quick. For me there were only 5 bad minutes on the tour. It's the moment when we had to split with the kindest people on the whole world, when we had to say bye to them and when we had to cover all the emotions we felt. Guys, we must do it again!!!

Have a nice time, Jure

7 DAYS OF FUN

2010-02-26T15:51:00.002+01:00

We're back from the Balkan tour we did with Sand Creek Massacre. Yesterday we played our last show in Pivka. Usually we only write a thank you list, but this time I decided to write some more words, since so many things are rushing trough my brains. First of all I would like to say that this was far the best tour we did. For the first time we were touring with other band, and we couldn't choose better option than Sand Creek Massacre. We met this guys and a girl exactly 1 year ago, we became friends, did some more shows together latter last year. But this tour made us more than just band friends. So many things happened, so many great conversations, sharing good and bad moments... Definitely we put our friendship on different level, and we are really thankful for that.

OK, let's not be to pathetic and say thank you to: Thijs, Mark, Kim, Peter, Erik, Marit and Boau for everything, same goes to Teja and our good friend Nina from Mainz. It was really nice to have you with us. Ozy and Anaeroba guys for great day in Ptuj and Slovenska Bistrica, Mario the Zagreb legend and Gonzo, people who helped us in Belgrade, all crazy Niš people (definitely the best after party ever, keep up the good work!!!), Vasko, Tina, Džano, Tripe and others from Skopie (you're too nice!!! Brate nema više Ajvarja) and in the end to Marko (who stayed home this time) and all of our friends who helped us book a last minute show in Pivka and every body that came on this really awesome show. Thanks again!!!!

Andrej & Melete

Back to the future!

Hey,
I uploaded some photos from our release party and made a gallery from them. Last photos we uploaded from our European tour are collected in slideshows, but if you click on the slideshow, there is also a gallery and you can look at them as long as you like.

Release Party 28.10.2009

We are planning to re-design our blog, because it needs some changes. You can read it for more than a year in that version.

In next few days we'll try to record some new demo songs for our upcoming release. We would really like to release our first full-length album on LP, but nothing is for sure yet.

"Let's burn the dry brush of our hearts!"

Bye, Jure

NEW YEAR

2009-12-08T00:06:00.001+01:00

Ufff, it's been a while from our last post. In a meanwhile we played some really great shows. We had a release party in Pivka, and we would like to thank Growing rats to play awesome show and to all the people that came. The day after we played in Trieste. We played a decent show, a lot of people came, food was amazing... Thanks to pianoearthquake guys and Tetris crew. Last show we did took place in Graz. What to say? We had a great time, got a bit drunk and played one of the best show this year. Thanks to Boredom, Plague mass and Sub people.
This Friday we play our last show this year. Channel zero is a club and is a part of one of the best places in the whole world. Almighty Metelkova mesto in Ljubljana. Come if you're around.

We also have some plans for the next year. In February we will visit Balkan again, but this time with our friends Sand creek massacre. We are still looking for some dates, so help us out if you can. Also April tour is in preparation, but i will keep my mouth shut, since we are waiting that Luka and Jaka come back from the tour with Human host body and we discuss the last details. I can only say that we will be touring for around 16 to 18 days.

Take care and all the best in upcoming year.

Hey buddies,
we finally uploaded some photos and made two slideshows from them. Now you can check our most interesting moments from our previous tour. We also should announce that we had to cancel our next tour across Italy and France, because of unsolvable booking problems with shows in Italy. Too bad that we wasted another chance to play with our best band - Bökanövsky.
We're planning to do official release party. It won't be like any other release party, because we want to do something special, but nothing is for sure yet. We'll keep you updated! :)

And we are not dead yet! You can check our future with click on Shows in the menu bar.

Take care, Jure&Melete

The only true living legend and a really good friend Fočo will turn 30 soon. On 22nd of August he's having a huge party at Pumpa squat. We are honored he invited us to play a show for him. Also In-sane, Analena will appear among others. This will be our first show after a while. And don't expect much, since we are lazy asses and don't rehearse much, hehehehe...
Ok, we haven't even left to our September tour, but we already plan new one. This time Italy and France, not a real tour, just a short one. See dates bellow and help us if you can!!!!
Another news is that Konsti from Gafas del Rigor Cassettes (http://www.myspace.com/gafasdelrigorcassettes) will release Melete on a DIY cassette. No one is sure when this will happen. Maybe till the end of this year or in beginning of 2010.
We are also working on February tour with our beloved Sand Creek massacre from Netherlands. Check this band, they kick ass (http://www.myspace.com/sandcreekmassacre)!!!!!! We will hit Balkan all the way to Macedonia. We will post the dates in the near future.

Dates for October:

29.10. - Trieste (Italy)

30.10. - Milano or Genova (Italy)

31.10. - Lyon (France) with Bokanovsky

01.11. - Toulon (France) with Bokanovsky

September

2009-07-24T15:16:00.017+02:00

The 3/4 of Melete went to Fluff fest. I stayed home, since i can't feel much joy in such festivals. I prefer small squats or clubs with not much people inside, yeah loooser, i know. We are still waiting for the 7 inches, but i guess they will arrive soon. And below you can see our September tour. Can't wait to hit the road again. The last one, mini Balkan tour, was 3 months ago and we all miss the tour life. Also we are planning to do 2 shows in the begining of September with our brothers Coma Stereo. If i am not wrong we will play one show in Slovenia and one in Croatia. But like i said, i don't know much about that, since CS are booking it.

Vacation

2009-07-14T22:42:00.000+02:00

Yes, we're back. After almost 2 months of hiatus we had our first rehearsal together, It was a blast. In the last 6 months we've spent together we had to take some weeks of vacation. In the meanwhile we were active as well. We set some decent shows, made new friends, met old ones...
hmmm, what is happening with the 7"? Yesterday we sent our material to the pressing plant. Now we hope everything will be ok and records will be here in 6 - 7 weeks. Covers, booklets, art work... will be done by us, DIY or DIE, hehehehe... We'll see, if we don't run out of time we will do a picnic/release show/party in our home club Pivka.
Also tour is approaching faaaast. We booked almost all the shows, but we are still looking for some. When everything is confirmed we will post the dates. Must say we are looking forward to do this tour. By the way, for 3 days Sand creek massacre from Netherlands will join us. Check this band, guys and a girl are awesome!!!!

That's it, enjoy the sun, got to the sea side, or have a time of your life wherever you are.

Our plan to release a split LP with Downfall of Gaia disappeared like a joint in Luka's hands:D DOG disbanded so we stayed without LP and tour with them. Shit happens but we are going on. Our 4 songs will be released as a 7", hopefully in a few months. Also we changed our September tour. Not much, just a bit... check below. After this tour we will rest for a month and than we will hit the road again. This time we will do just a small tour (from 29/10 to 2/11) across Italy and France. Just to say hi to our friends for the last time in this year:D:D
Also our new song Sungaze (you can listen it in the player at the end of the post) will appear on French compilation released by Desertion records. On this compilation you will also find bans as: Daitro, 12xu, Gasmask terror, Dakhma, Tesa, Adorno, Magdalene, Lakme...

Take care and enjoy the sunny weather

Avokado

2009-06-08T14:15:00.002+02:00

Par mesecev nazaj sem postavil v vodo ogromno avokadovo seme. Preden je vzklilo je porablo več kot mesec in pol. Prvo sem mislil, da sem ga uničil ker sem namesto zobotrebcev(da je samo pol v vodi) dal en rjast vijak in sponko. No, pred mesecem in pol pa je pognala korenine in pred 2 tedni mi ga je cimer Matija posadil v zemljo, kjer zdaj pridno raste. V bistvu zelo hitro, hitreje kot sem si predstavljal. Medtem, ko je avokado rastel, smo končali snemanje z Melete. Zdaj čakamo na mixing in mastering, ki ga bo opravil majster Jakić(Senata Fox). Nekaj se že dela tudi na designu za 12” split. Tudi bookiranje ture kaže dobro, ampak smo še vedno veseli kakršnekoli pomoči. Skupaj nismo igrali od zadnjega koncerta v Kopru. Razlog za to je, da smo vsi vpleteni v druge stvari. Jaz se učim za izpite, vadim in koncertiram z mojim drugim bendom (Human Host Body). Mladi Bolič se bori z maturo. Kobra redno dela, Jurzl dela samo občasno. Možno je, da so prav te dolge pavze med igranjem razlog za to, da se precej bolj veselim ponovnega druženja. Res je tudi to, da sem najbolj oddaljen od vseh in da mi ni uspelo obiskati niti enega koncerta v Čuzi(http://cuzapivka.blogspot.si/), ki so ga organizirali kolegi iz benda. Za zdaj pa je situacija taka, da se vsak loteva svojih prioritet in vsi komi čakamo, da spet zaigramo skupaj.

Some months ago I've put in water a big avocado seed. Before it germinated, it had spend more than a month and a half. First I thought that I'd kill it because I've put, instead of toothpicks(to keep it half in the water), a rusty screw and paper clip. Well, a month and a half ago the first roots germinated and two weeks ago my roommate Matija planted it. Now it is growing diligently, actually I didn't expect that it would grow that fast. While the avocado was growing, we finished the recording session with Melete. Now we're waiting mixing and mastering which will be done by master Jakić(Senata Fox). We're also working on some designs for the 12” split. Also the tour booking looks good, however if you can help us in any way it's more than welcome. We didn't play together since the gig in Koper. The reason is that everyone is involved in other things. I have exams and I am practicing and playing shows with my other band (Human Host Body). Young Bolič is struggling with exams for graduation from secondary school. Jurzl and Kobra are working. Maybe these long periods, when we don't play, are the reason why I'm much more excited about hanging together. It's true that I'm the most distant of us and that I never succeed to come on any of the shows in Čuza(http://cuzapivka.blogspot.si/ ), which guys from band have organized. The situation right now is that everyone is taking care of their priorities and everyone impatiently waits the chance to play together again.

Here is the review of our Tour EP:

Tukaj imam prikupen Tour EP mlade postojnsko-pivško-koprske naveze Melete, ki v zadnjem letu pridno polni domače in tuje koncertne luknje z distorzijo in jezo metalnega in emocionalnega hardcore crusta. V papirju, blagu in 'do-it-yourself' duhu, ponudijo štiri surove komade t.i. emocrusta, ki agresivno spušča mine na elitizem in kapitalistično mentaliteto znotraj hardcore scene, največje upostošenje pa povzročijo s komadom 'Failure is a design', ki po zaslugi viole, še toliko bolj eksplodira. Veseli me, da imamo po dolgem času zopet domač hardcore bend z omembe vrednimi besedili in celo priloženimi razlagami, pa še glasba, ki zajema tako elemente sludga, kot d-beat crusta in ritmiko screamo-violence bendov, niti približno ne pada v že slišan vzorec domače ponudbe. Njihova lastna oznaka 'emocrust' sicer vzbuja vse možne nevšečne konotacije, ampak ne se ustrašit. Melete so vse tisto kar naj bi hardcore bil.

(ivo. 28.05.09)

Here I have the attractive Tour EP of a young roped up bend Melete from Postojna, Pivka and Koper, which is diligently filling up local and foreign concert holes with distortion and anger of their metallic and emotional hardcore crust. In paper, cloth and 'do-it-yourself' spirit are offering 4 raw songs so called emocrust, which is aggressively dropping mines on elitism and capitalistic mentality inside the hardcore scene, the biggest insurrection is caused with the song 'Failure is a design', that thanks to viola, explodes that much more. It makes me happy that in a long time we have a local bend with mentionable lyrics and even with added explanations and yet their music which contains elements of sludge, d-beat crust and rhythmics of screamo-violence bands, not even nearly to be considered in the sample of local offer. Their own sign 'emocrust' may bring all possible negative connotations, but don't be afraid. Melete are all that what hardcore should be.

(ivo. 28.05.09)

Chaos is me and is also us!

2009-05-17T21:04:00.003+02:00

Howdy,
in the upcoming week we are going to record all vocals for our 4 new songs. And yeah, we're pretty active in our upcoming split release with Downfall Of Gaia. We'll also contribute a song for the French compilation which will be released by Desertion Records. Check it out!!
Last Wednesday we played a gig in Koper and I have to say a disastrous one, because it was our second show that would be amplified and we couldn't hear each other, so we were just playing by heart. The PA systems suck and we hate them!!

Here is the report from our show in Rijeka:

On Tuesday evening our small DIY shelter P.O.D.R.U.M. hosted two bands: Melete from Slovenia and Distaste from Austria. Melete playing chaotic emo violence and Distaste showing us how in Austria can grind like Nasum once did too.

The concert as usually started late, for there is no need to hurry in such occasions… Though this is perhaps sarcastic, I must say I really get annoyed lately with all those delays regarding the start of the gig.

The first band on stage (if you can call it that way :) was Melete that conquered the small crowd in front of them with sheer energy and power. Although they had parts where you could hear them going off beat, they really kicked some major ass – and you can hear these guys listen to a lot of Orchid! This influence is more than obvious, and I must say welcomed from my side.

Distaste on the other hand are well played modern day grindcore machine. Three funny Austrians with their even funnier English (with heavy German accent) gave us a good stir. After 20 and so minutes, I was convinced that they are done but they just kept on going filling the cavities in between the songs with laughter and jokes mostly on them.

What to say in the end, if they only played for half an hour they would be great, as they didn’t, they are only good. Melete on the other hand are just plain great, and are what hardcore punk should be – honest, full of energy and careless of mistakes.

Over and out.

And here is a video clip from our show in Krško:

Bye bye, Jure

Cut & paste

2009-05-08T23:51:00.005+02:00

We just came home from our last recording session for this week. We started 5 days ago and today we've finished bass and guitar tracks. We only need to do vocal stuff. Since Luka is enjoying in sunny Barcelona with his love Tea other trio will have few days off. We must say we are satisfied with recordings, but even more with the work our friend Emac has done. Man, you're too patient and too kind for the assholes like we are, hehehehehehehehe...
This 4 songs will be released on a split 12" with German Downfall of Gaia (www.myspace.com/downfallofgaia). Please check this band, they are awesome, as musicians and even more as persons. So, we are really honored we will share this record with them and also play some shows together on our September tour.

Hugs

Rockstars on the stage... khmm, on the floor

Here are a few photos which have been made by our friends on our Balkan shows. We don't really like that kind of photos, we much more appreaciate photos from afterparties, etc. But who cares, thanks to Stromi and Marko!

Bye bye, Jure

p.s.: By the way, yesterday we recorded drums for 4 new songs which will be released on the split record with Downfall Of Gaia. We`re also playing next week in Koper with slovenian hc/punk legends Aktivna Propaganda.

Here is a story from our just finished trip across Balkan. We started and finished the tour with a coffee, haha. I collected a bunch of photos and put them in a thumbnail. I hope you like'em! If you stop with the cursor on the photo, you can see our comment to the pic. Enjoy!

Take care, Jure

In the End, we'll remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.

2009-04-30T09:13:00.008+02:00

Hey buddies,
we are home. We're back to our usual lifestyles and routine world. We spent four wonderful days in the Balkan area and played some of the best shows we've ever played.

We'd like to thank and send a kiss to: Josko from Final Approach, Enej from The Lift, Rok from Uprising Voice and all KKxHC crew; Ana(we love you!), Felix, Nikola and Vojkan from Beograd; Spaske and ROIR crew from Novi Sad; Penx from Rijeka and nasty navigator Leki who spent 2 days and a night with us. :)
We would also like to thank to all bands who shared a stage with us and people who came to us and spoke some words with us.
And in the end special thanks goes to our 5th member Marko for all his help and love.

Andrej+Luka+Jaka+Jure

Our pants, Your patches.

2009-04-25T01:25:00.003+02:00

As usual we did a last minute silk screening job for the cover of the Tour EP. OK, just by the way, this CD-R has new master and it sounds much better then the first one. We also did some patches, but we didn't have cloth so we used Jaka's pants.
That's all, I gotta go catch some sleep, today we destroy Krško!

Hugs,
Luka

Šparglji in tha Woods

2009-04-19T14:17:00.003+02:00

Prejšnji vikend sem odšel v gozd nabirat šparglje in uživat v naravo, ki se je ravno začela prebujati iz zimskega spanja. V teh dneh smo se tudi z Melete začeli prebujati iz zimske stagnacije. Po turneji nismo vadili skoraj mesec in pol, tako, da nam sedaj primanjkuje časa za pripravo na to turnejico, za vadbo komadov, pripravo na snemanje... krivi smo si sami, vendar bomo dali vse od sebe in poštimali stvari kot je treba. Naredili smo tudi dva nova komada, ki pa jih je treba še malo dodelati in definirati vokale.
Čez teden dni se odpravljamo na 4 dnevno Balkan turnejico in vsi komaj čakamo da spet igramo, srečamo stare/nove prijatelje, vidimo super bende in za kratek čas zbežimo iz našega vsakdana.
Ta teden je bil poln presenečenj, ki so nam dali polno elana in motivacije, da čas, ki nam je ostal pred izpiti in maturo iskoristimo in poskušamo biti kar se da produktivni. Tako, da se takoj po turneji zapiramo v studijo, kjer bomo posneli 5 komadov. Snemali bomo z Emirjem (Aktivna propaganda) v njegovem studiju, za mix in master pa bo poskrbel Jakič (Senata fox).
Narejen je tudi že plan za septembersko turo, sedaj se bomo lotili bookinga in lahko povem, da bomo zdoma skoraj 3 tedne... m'fak dt šiiiiit!

Last weekend i went in the woods to gather asparagus and enjoy the nature that just start to waking from the winter spleep. In these days also Melete started to waking up from winter stagnation. After the tour we haven't been rehearsing for almost a month and a half, so now we are running out of time to get ready for the tour, practice our songs, get ready for the recordings... we can blame it on our own, but we will do our best that everything will work out how it should. We also did 2 new songs that need a bit completion and the vocals have to be defined yet.
In a week we are going on 4 day Balkan tour and we all wait to play again, meet old/new friends, see awesome bands and to escape for a while from the everyday. This week has been full of surprises, that gave us lots of motivation to work with full force till the exam period. So, after the tour we will close ourselves in the studio to record 5 songs. We will be recording with Emir (Aktivna propaganda) in his own studio and Jakič (Senata fox) will take care of mixing and mastering.
Also a plan for September tour is done, now we will start booking it and i can say that we will be away from home for almost 3 weeks... m'fak dt šiiiiit!

Ciao

We are still searching for a date or two, so, if you can help don't hesitate do contact us. After that we plan to hit the studio to record 4 songs, which will be released on a 7inch.

The saddest day

2009-02-22T19:17:00.000+01:00

We're back from the tour. It was a blast. In the near future we will post some photos and maybe even write a tour report.

For now we would like to thank and say hello to: Bokanovsky family and Claire (we miss you); Sylvian and St. Etienne crew; Dodo, Tobi and the rest of Biel squatters; Lea (can't wait till summer); Fred and his lovely girlfriend for the great accommodation in Antwerp; Brad and Chaos bar people (now we know why Chaos bar); Sand creek massacre (thanks for 2 great shows); Nina, Tobi and Marius from Mainz; Simon and St. Ingbert punxxx; Manuela & Philipp for being so nice to us; our girlfriends a boyfriends Helan, Maria, Diana, Martin and Sakke from Shades of grey; Saso and Coma Stereo and in the end our friend Kori to be with us on this trip and 5th member of Melete Marko for everything he has done for us.

We would also like to thank to the bands who shared a stage with us, but we forgot their names, Sorry!

All of you have a special place in our hearts!

Andrej, Luka, Jure and Jaka

Flip the tape

2009-02-12T04:46:00.000+01:00

It's 5.00 in the morning and i just can't sleep. I tried to close my eyes, but no luck. Thoughts are flying trough my head, my heart is beating like mad, my body is nervous and I feel like i'm going to explode. There's no words to describe my happiness, since the tour is approaching so fast. But i'm not happy only because all the adventures that will happen, all friends we will meet again, all the bands we will share the stage with, all the good and bad things we will experience… i'm happy to get away from here. Last few weeks are quite hard for me. I am in some weird life period and i'm constantly thinking on some issues. So, i really can't wait to run away from the streets i daily go through, from the people i meet every day, from my bed, my room… i really have to fill my batteries again, to deal with my daily life and off course to find some energy i can put in Melete. I'm pretty sure that this tour will return some positivity in my heart and i will be the same old person again.
Ok, that's it i guess. In the end i would like to thank other guys from the band, to be in this with me. And also would like to say sorry, since written lines don't represent the whole band.

Now, burn me!!!!!

Heavy as the snow that breaks branches of the dead trees

2009-02-08T17:37:00.000+01:00

Minili so tri tedni od koncerta v Zagrebu. Zadnje dni imamo malo časa za karkoli, Andrej in jaz imava izpite, vsi skupaj se pripravljamo na turo. V nedeljo sem do konca posnel vokale za Tour EP, tako da nismo imeli časa napisati nič o dogodivščinah v Zagrebu. Do Zagreba smo šli po malo bolj daljši poti, ker si je Jurzl pikno novo megalomansko glavo za kitaro na katero bo igral Jaka, zato smo se morali ustaviti v Celju. Od Celja naprej smo se peljali po lokalni cesti, ki je peljala vzporedno z reko Savo. Verjetno smo se vsi takrat prvič peljali po tej poti in pogled je bil res epičen; zasnežena pokrajina, sivo nebo,...Najbolj nas je skrbelo kako bomo prečkali mejo z avtom polnim opreme. Imeli smo srečo in noben nas ni ustavil niti za pregled dokumentov. V Zagreb smo prišli še kar zgodaj in smo se načakali v klubu Time. Počasi so začeli prihajati bendi in ostala ekipa. Lepo je bilo videti polno znanih fac. Plac je bil že res nabit, ko so začeli igrat Brivido, ki so navdušili z enostavnim kratkim in jedrnatim HC-punkom. Potem smo prišli na vrsto na, odigrali smo stare komade in novega, ki še nima imena. Fušali smo ko carji, ker se nismo slišali nič, ma boli nas kurac itak smo pank...hahaha. Nato so prišli na vrsto Senata Fox....zame eden najboljših bendov na balkanski(in ne samo) sceni. Hitro, kratko in pošteno odigran set z veliko humorja. Res kapo dol! Evo, zdaj pride tisti del Zagreba, ki se ga ne spomnem tako dobro....skratka seboj smo vzeli rakijo in kot rečejo v bistriških koncih ZALAJSKALI kot je treba. Super se je bilo zabavati s kolegi in spoznavati nove ljudi. Baje da sem hotel kušniti Tucmana in da celo obstaja fotodokumentacija, katero mora posredovati Žule...obljubim, da bomo objavili na blogu hahaha. Hvala Gonzotu, ki nam je zrihtal špil, prenočišče in nam kupil kruh, pa še marsikaj kar sem pozabil. Hvala ekipi, ki je delala v Timu. Hvala Senati Fox in Brivido, ki so nam posodili opremo in delili oder z nami. Hvala vsem, ki ste prišli in se zabavali z nami. Hvala carinikom in miličnikom, ki nam niso težili na meji, tudi za domov.

Three weeks passed since the gig in Zagreb. These days we didn't have much time to do anything, Andrej and me have to study for exams, we have to prepare things for the tour, these Sunday I finished recording vocals for the Tour EP, because of that we didn't write anything about our adventures in Zagreb. The way to Zagreb was a bit longer as usual because Jurzl had to buy a new megalomaniac amp for guitar which Jaka plays now, that is why we stop in Celje. From Celje we drove on local road that run parallel with river Sava. Probably none of us ever drove through these way and the view was really epic; the landscape covered with snow, gray sky... We were really worried about how we will pass the border with a car full with equipment, but we had luck and no one stopped us, not even to check the passports. We came pretty early in Zagreb and we had to wait in the club Time. The other bands and the rest of the crew start showing up at the place. It was nice to see lots of familiar faces. The place really filled up with people when Brivido start to play. Brivido has aroused much enthusiasm with their short and to the point HC punk. Then it was our turn, we played our old songs plus one new, which still has no name. We screwed up pretty much, 'cause we didn't hear each other but we don't give a fuck because we are punk hahahha. Than it was the turn of almighty Senata Fox...in my opinion one of the best bands on the Balkan(but not only) scene. Fast, short and fair was their set with lots of humor. OK, here it is that part of Zagreb which I don't remember much... we took with us some rakija(poison look like alcohol) and how they say in Ilirska Bistrica we ZALAJSKED our self in the way it should be done. It was nice having fun with all friends and met new people. It is said that I wanted to kiss Tucman and there are even photos that documented that which Žule should to mediate...I promise that we will post them on the blog hahah. Thanks to Gonzo for getting us the gig, giving us a place to sleep, for buying us bread and many more things that I forgot. Thanks also to the Time crew. Thanks to Senata Fox and Brivido, who lending the equipment and share stage with us. Thanks to everyone who came and have fun with us. Thanks to the customsmen and police for letting us pass the border with no problems even on our way home.

We haven't been writing here for a long time due to lack of time. We're looking for the last dates of our upcoming tour around Europe. Feel free to contact us if you could help.
Yesterday I saw Gregor Samsa live and I'm full of emotions and a bit confused, but it doesn't matter. We're going to hit "tha Zagreb" on Saturday. Two wonderful Croatian bands will be playing with us. Both bands contain ex-members of some legendary Croatian bands like Nikad, Razlog Za and Panaceja. These were bands which mean a lot to us, so we are really glad to play with them. See you at the show!

Here is the flyer for the gig:

Cheers, Jurzl

p.s.: The player on our blog does not work properly, so we are really sorry about that. We will try to fix the problem as soon as possible.

Fuck reality shows!

2008-12-21T12:59:00.000+01:00

We got the video clip from the last show in Postojna. Its production is wonderful, but the quality is not so great. Fuck cameras! So, here we go.

Rok also did us a test-press of our yellow sexy button, which will be available next week for free or for some voluntary donation.

A long trip to the end

2008-12-15T20:28:00.000+01:00

We finally uploaded our first song. Hope it is in final version. It will be one of the four on the upcoming release. So, listen to and comment it. If anybody wants the mp3 of the song, just write us on the mail and we'll send it to you. By the way, we'd like to hit the Europe in February, so if you could help us, feel free to write us.

Here is the design of our button which will be available soon.

Bye, Jurzl

Same shit as always

2008-12-11T11:33:00.000+01:00

Last saturday we had great time with austrian buddies - The Plague Mass. They are so awesome as musicians and so friendly as people, so you must check them out and support. We played the same set as on the first two shows, because the new songs haven't been finished yet. We also haven't got the records yet, so you'll have to wait. Sorry!

Here are some photos from saturday show, check them out:

Nova Vas

2008-12-03T13:24:00.000+01:00

V nedeljo sva z Jako šla v Novo Vas k Samuleu snemat. Končali smo s snemanjem kitar in smo naredili vokale še za en komad z naslovom "Faliure is a design", tako da smo proti koncu z snemanjem.
V teh dneh se lotevamo tudi malo designa glede logotov in podobnih pizdarij in glede na to da nismo neki stručkoti bomo veseli katere koli pomoči oziroma prispevkov.

Last sunday Jaka and me went to Nova Vas where Samuel has his recording studio. We finish recording guitars and put vocals on one song that is entitled "Faliure is a design", so we are near the end of these recordings.
These days we are trying to get some ideas about the designe for our logos and other things, but because we aren't that good at we'll be happy of any your help or contribution.

Luka
