Album Review: So this is a Polish band that does not speak much, if any English. At first, the lyrics were translated to English and learned to be sung phonetically. Musically, they are a lot like the police...finding that fine line between ska and reggae that is basically just another branch of the new wave tree. And apparently they are still together, performing across Europe later this year if everything opens back up (2020).
Stand Out Track: Minus Zero
