Tomek Kukliński (vocalist and lyricist) comments about the new album:
“Kamienie” took four full years to be created. It may seem like a long time for an active band, but considering the various circumstances that have happened to us during this time, we are very happy that they will be released at all. This material was made in pain, although it was not artistic pain. The creation itself is never a painful or difficult process in our case. Riffs, arrangements, words come relatively easy, but life writes various scenarios, often completely unpredictable. We were slowed down by the pandemic and the lockdown, we said goodbye to two great musicians who had formed the face of the band so far. We were looking for more people, and while looking for them, we were also looking for ourselves anew all the time. Finally Tomasz and Michał joined us. The bitterness got the right propulsion, we entered the studio and – it can be said for sure – that everyone had finally dropped their proverbial “stones”.
“I must admit that the album is very important to me personally. It is what we have been for the last 4 years. It’s emotional, maybe a bit weird, but I can assure you there is no fiction, no cheating. There is only truth. Anyway, this is our goal in creating. The meaning of any art should be truth. Art begins with truth and searches for truth. The music that Przemek composes stems from a deep experience of life, it is the fruit of everyday life in which we live, which we struggle with as adult men. It is similar with the words that accompany the music. Bitterness is like an antidepressant, it allows itself to cope somehow.”
“Kamienie” was recorded by Tomasz Stołowski from Nebula Studio, mixed and mastered by Maciej Karbowski also at Nebula Studio in Warsaw, Poland. The artwork for the album was done by Przemysław Grabowski (Gorycz guitarist).
