In the summer of 2006 Srdjan(ex-Another One, Negovans) and Damir(aka Deda, quintessential part of Ruma hardcore scene) decided to form a streetpunk band, and started rehearsing, joined by Vojkan and Nikola from The Truth of XXX, a straightedge hardcorepunk band from Kraljevo. Then they invited your humble narrator to take care of the vocal duties. So, during these first few months of us functioning as a band(someone would say a 'side project') we managed to have a dozen of rehearsals and were lucky enough to play three gigs(first of them being with Argies - Argentina's own reincarnation of The Clash, and our great friends, Belgrade based punkrockers 888). We also recorded a demo containing four songs. The studio that we recorded it in is a pretty good one, but due to some mishaps, lack of practice and organization, vocals were flimsily sung and recorded(we had only like an hour and a half to record lead and backing vocals and to finish the remix of all the songs, backing vocals were invented just a second before they were recorded, and there was even some rewriting of the lyrics - so what, Joe Strummer used to do pretty much the same thing when The Clash recorded their first demos). I also have some lame excuses for not so good singing, like suffering from a bad hangover, so I'll ask you to be kind when judging our songs:) Plus, I'll quote The Boys: "Oh! oh oh oh... It's my fist time! Oh! oh oh oh...Please, be kind!" :) Up the punx!Cheers! .
