De Press - Harna? Ju? Nie ?Yje (Leader Is Dead

Facts New album from De Press! Andrej Nebb, who celebrated his 70th birthday with a spectacular gig at Oslo’s Rockefeller Music Hall last year, is still as prolific and creative as ever. “On this album, I draw inspiration from our history in the 20th century in the Tatra Mountains. The Tatra Mountains are located in Polish and Slovak territory close to the city of Zakopane. In those mountains rebels fought, led by Janosik, who took from the rich and gave to the poor. He was eventually caught and executed. The execution was very painful with a hook inserted under a rib and hoisted onto a wooden log. Poland as a country has had a tragic fate - Conquered from west and east, sometimes without existing on any map. This time I am motivated by heavier music. It may be that I am inspired by my youth as a musician when I escaped from Poland to the West. I still had five fingers on each hand, and my dream then was to buy records by Led Zeppelin or Black Sabbath."
