TO WHINE AND MARTYR

It began in early nineties; a shy boy joined a band to sing and made friends with another shy guitar player. After some fun time with cover songs and a few gigs they discarded the group, to play their own compositions, and later a drummer joined the rehearsals. It must have been some six- or seven-years journey, but it unfortunately ended or faded slowly, there were studies and families to work with, and no resources or enthusiasm to work hard enough for fame and rock stardom.

The guys preserved their friendship well, as over twenty years passed. Kids born and raised, a son was introduced to drums too.

After three years of hard work, and having some enthusiastic additional musicians involved, here we have the results. The album is somewhat progressive, hard rock and even funky metal inspired, melancholic music with quite straight forward and bold lyrics about all the troubles that last twenty years have brought to the lives of middle-aged men. Rather than fighting back, the characters are just whining and making martyrs of themselves.

A true adult music project for true adults, or like-minded. LP and CD, plus digital streaming release of decades boiled content.

So here we are, friends for 30 years, a guitarist and a bassist, and a son on drums. Telling stories about mid-life thoughts, parenthood, friendship, relations, fear of war and degrading health. Play & Enjoy.
