    Demi (sanctuary.cz) about debut LP : If you are able to crack a smile even through the tears, the new album of Polish band PAST will be exactly for you! Their raw sound can't deny countrymen of Siekiera´s classics – they can be as cold as X-Mal Deutschland, but full of hope and energy, they can also give you new zest for life. They are more melodic than Vånna Inget and more melancholic than Maktheverskan. On the LP "Black/White", the 80's post-punk gets a distinctive character also thanks to the strong vocal of the singer Gosia, who really performs her dissatisfaction with the state of today's world with expression and is not satisfied with a vacant "singing". She's got an opinion, she complains, calms down, screams, she can dream away and get angry and her fellow bandmates are helping her with that. Eleven songs and a cover by Ewa Braun are definitely not black and white. On the contrary, the album is full of colors – the brighter ones and the darker ones as well. However, all of them are intensive and that's a specific sign of PAST. Moreover, the lyric poetry in Polish makes it believable and leaves no space for empty phrases. Fans will be able to get the vinyl "Czarno/Biala" for instance on the mini-tour in the Czech Republic or in Gliwice, where PAST are going to be a support for the legendary Clan of Xymox.

    Those 12 songs were recorded, mixed and mastered in the beginning of 2016 in Dobra 12 Studio in Bialystok (PL) by Piotr Polak. Song No 10 "Ucieczka" is Ewa Braun cover.

lyrics

"Budzik"

Fałszywej nuty dźwięk
Do wstania nie nastraja mnie
Skąd się wziął ten budzik
I w głowie nagłych pytań zgiełk?

Kiedy urodziłem się
I skąd ta pewność, że wciąż żyję?
Mam przed sobą świata drzwi
Ale, z której strony stoję?
Dokąd biegłem w swoim śnie
I czy już się obudziłem?
Pośród ciasnych czterech ścian
Bieg szalony, sen szalony
i czyj jest ten oddech za plecami?

Na środku okna krzyż
a za nim ciemność, więc nie widać łotrów
Tłumię rozpaczy szept
Pająk firaną zasnuł okno

Kiedy....

Odbijam się od wszystkich ścian
Rana na każdej świata stronie
Sen znów chce iść ze mną spać
Niebo na wschodzie wciąż niewyjaśnione

Kiedy...
