Kult (2)

Formed in 1982 by Kazik Staszewski. Released first record August 1986. The original members of Kult were: [a=Tadeusz Bagan] [a=Dariusz Gierszewski] [a=Kazik Staszewski] [a=Piotr Wieteska] The music of Kult has its roots in post-punk/new wave, but incorporates elements of rock, ska, jazz, traditional balladry, reggae, and poetry. From the start, the group has had a recognizable sound, and is distinguished by the voice and provocative lyrics of the lead singer, Kazik Staszewski. Kult became famous for the atmosphere they created at their concerts, and the unorthodox message in their songs. Kult’s songs attack ‘the system’, understood as a conglomerate of the communist state apparatus, the Catholic Church, and others. In the 1990s, Kult took on the ‘new system’, which was seen as founded on pseudo-democratic leaders, the clergy and corporations. As of 09.09.2020, Kult consists of: [a=Tomasz Goehs] - percussion [a=Konrad Wantrych] - keyboards [a=Wojciech Jabłoński] - guitar [a=Piotr Morawiec] - guitar [a=Kazik Staszewski] - vocals and saxophone [a=Jarosław Ważny] - trombone [a=Ireneusz Wereński] - bass guitar [a=Janusz Zdunek] - trumpet [a=Mariusz Godzina] - saxophone
