Ojczyzna Blizna

Overview

Ojczyzna Blizna --- 2011-05-10

Compilation of Deuter's recordings made between 1982 and 1988. Comes in a digipak case along with an insert with various artwork, pictures and lyrics. Cover picture taken on April 7th, 1979 in Anin, Warsaw, Poland. The inside of the case also lists everybody who played in Deuter from 1980 to 1988. Translation from page 2 of the insert: "Deuter came to being in early 1981 and was the consequence of a collaboration of two musicians who contributed to the punk scene since its beginning - Paweł "Kelner" Rozwadowski (ex Fornit, Dexapolkort) and Kamil "Blitz" Stoor (ex The Boors, Kryzys) in a duet called No Price. Deuter never achieved so called success, but had considerable influence on the alternative scene. "Ojczyzna Blizna" contains over a dozen songs of the band from different periods of its existence. These amateur recordings made on equipment that was available in that time are, by today's quality standards, very poor, but have great historical value. This is a record of the band's output and its leader, who could never be classified under one musical style and kept escaping conventions for many years. Kelner doesn't cling to only one style, remaining a punk rocker for his whole life, but looks for different ways for expressing his lyrics. "Ojczyzna Blizna", is a 1981-1988 compilation arranged at random and deliberately without any chronology. Some songs appear more than once in different versions, because many musicians, who lated contributed to other well known bands, played in Deuter. This is a record of their presence in the band. <k.d.>"
