BIOGRAPHY
Ok, to jump over the 1st question - yes, they named themselves after restaurant in that stupid teen tv show (Beverly Woods or something...). But we have more important things here to discuss.
Peach Pit is one of the first Croatian bands who shined my eyes & ears during the war here. Since then they supported bands like Zeni Geva, Trans Am, Colossamite, Guapo... and did numerous great solo gigs.
In the meantime they become the band everybody should look for. Off course they had some personal changes (mainly bassplayers), but last few years they play in the same formation. Bruno Motik, Mihal Bele, Franjo Glusac are "string part" of Peach Pit. Mihael and Franjo played for some time in Lunar and left their prints on some of the best songs Lunar ever did. Bruno Vidovic, a "skins and cimbals" player applied his skills also for Uzrujan (cd of this band can also be found on our catalog).
Peach Pit plays instrumental music. You're going to say - many bands are doing it today. Yes, but not this way. Their music is hardhitting, played in really complex measures yet it`s capturing atmosphere is understandable in simplest possible way. Long interplay with metal neck guitars brings to mind Don Caballero or Shellac, but their melower side could also associate you to Labradford, Rodan or...
Anhow, i'm sure of one thing - we are talking here about one of the finest bands Croatia ever had, a band with great sound and great songs. And when you're asked what they are playing, say: Kubrick trance rock. Enough said.

JULLANDER
John Symmes' Welt (cd)
After a couple of 7" and one 10", Jullander finally arrive to a full length.
Musically, “John Symmes’ Welt” consists of four equal, but distinct voices that complement each other and yet allow each other to be heard. You can sense that the people here have made an agreement and set off on a common path.
With two guitars, a bass and drums, Jochen Brandt, Arne Kittler, Andi Schoon and Jens-Rainer Berg conceive and mold their songs, with occasional support on saxophone by Philip Andernach.
Jullander play beautiful music that is perfectly aware of itself.
Their calmer pieces with strange melody lines can remind you sometimes on Dianogah or Couch, others, somewhat bulkyer brings to mind June of 44 or Paul Newman, but don't even think that this is enough to describe their sound.
Their sound is really their own - unique melodies, stylish singing, jazz skillfulness and pop qualities you shouldn't miss.
