Frontside + Mentor + Hostia

xisting since 1993 Sosnowiec Frontside, winner of the 2003 Fryderyk Award for the album I odpuść nam nasze winy. In 2018, the band celebrated its 25th anniversary, and the jubilee sealed the route around Poland alongside Decapitated, Virgin Snatch and Drown My Day. What is also important was the new studio record of Mariusz "Demon" Dzwonek's band, eloquently titled Zmartwychwstanie. Demon founded a band with the vocalist Astek (Sebastian Flasza), after the bands in which they played - Dirty Flower and My Life broke up. Since 2005, Frontside has been playing in the unchanged composition: Marcin "Auman" Rdest (vocal), mentioned Demon (guitar), Dariusz "Daron" Kupis (guitar), Wojciech Nowa (bass guitar) and Tomasz "Tom" Ochab (drums). The Mentor team also comes from Sosnowiec. It exists since 2011 and creates a mix of black metal, thrash, hard core and punk. For the sounds corresponds to four well known players on the metal scene, who in the dossier have such names as Thaw, Furia, ARRM, JD Overdrive. The Mentor concert is something that can be compared to Mike Tyson's best years fights. Short, carefully brought out, accurate and knockout punches with a length rarely exceeding 3 minutes. Host - in 2017 in Warsaw four men who hide their identity under the guise of saints - St. Xyxtus (bass), St. Evaristus (drums), St. Anacletus (guitar) and St. Sixtus (vocals) decided to make a noise on the death-grind fashion. And to this, still, paradoxically, loosen up. In addition, under the church name strongly associated with the name Host. They fell heavily, these saints. Let it not be that we are dealing with a musical creation fixed on the point of proving to all that is holy, the inhabitants of Warsaw exploring various social issues and subjects related to wars. What is the Host made of? On the book's debut published in 2018, whose cover is decorated with the popes cut heads, it is certainly dominated by songs in which echoes of the achievements of such masters as Napalm Death or Misery Index can be heard.
