Patrimonium Del Pueblo - Pustka Tape


Last post on the some Polish tapes for now.
Patrimonium Del Pueblo was a crust band from Dąbrowa Górnicza, in the south of Poland.
Their only album is the 'Pustka' tape released in 1999 on Stradoom Terror (the label of the band with the same name). There seems to be a split tape with French grindcore band Hypoptalasias with mostly live recordings. Don't think the band was around for a long time.

Amen / Red Light Split Tape


Split tape with 2 crusty HC/punk bands from Lóblin. Amen is the most wellknown as some members went on to Antichrist. Red Light is not so known although they released a 7"as well (which I never heard). Amen did a 7" on the same label as this tape, Lagart Factory Lóblin. This label, initially a tape label,was run by members of Amen (later Antichrist) and also released vinyl and CD's.
This tape was released in 1994.

Dezynfekcja - Zwyrodniały Ranking Wartości Tape


Another obscure punk band from Poland. Dezynfekcja were from Bogatynia, a city close to the border of Czech and Germany. Their one and only tape was released in 1996 on Polish label
Czerwony Diabełek, which is still around. I remember ordering this tape and a few others from this label in the late 90's.
Can't find any info on the band but they play crusty, political HC/punk and have 2 vocalists. Don't think they were  around that long.

Action Freedom - Walka Trwa! Tape


Next Polish band is more in the anarchopunk vein. 'Walka Trwa!' is the 1st tape of Action Freedom, released in 1999 on tape label TKA. Their 2nd release was a split tape with Amen (their 7") on Nikt Nic Nie Wie in 2002.
11 tracks of powerful, political punk with a sax. Reminds me a bit of Wlochaty or Stracony.
TKA was one of the many Polish tape labels around releasing mainly crust stuff like Bisect, Alkochol Front, Anti-Holocaust, ..., as well as discographies / tape versions of vinyl albums of foreign bands like Disclose, Hiatus, Extinction Of Mankind, Those Who Survived The Plague, ...

Earth Movement - s/t Tape


15th release on tape label Qrva Sistema from Słupsk, Poland.
Earth Movement were from Suwałki and played HC/punk with a strong ecological message.
This tape was Earth Movement's 1st release but don't know when it got released. They also did a 7" in 1998 on Dwie Strony Medalu but I prefer the songs on the tape.
There's also a reggae-ish tune. Reggae was/is quite popular among the Polish punks.

Monoteizm-Co-Existence - Patrz I Odczuj! Tape


As promised, here's the 2nd and last tape of Polish crustpunks Monoteizm-Co-Existence. Released on Czech label Malarie Records probably around 1998.
The band went through some line-up changes as the bassplayer and one of the vocalists left.
1st 2 songs already appeared on the previous tape. This tape has a better sound than 'Oblicze Prawdy'.

Monoteizm-Co-Existence - Oblicze Prawdy Tape


More crust stuff out of Poland from the mid-90's. Monoteizm-Co-Existence from Kolno aren't that wellknown. Guess they never played out of Poland. They managed to release 2 cassette albums of which 'Oblicze Prawdy' is the 1st one. This one was released on Demonstracja Tapes in 1995. Seems they were good friends with Sanctus Iuda. If you like Sanctus Iuda, you'll definitely should give Monoteizm-Co-Existence a try. 2nd tape will follow soon.

Disgusting Lies - Byt Określa Świadomość Tape


More crustpunk out of Poland. Disgusting Lies started mid-90's in the city of Białystok. The 'Byt Określa Świadomość' cassette was the band's 1st release on Demonstracja Tapes, in 1995. Some tracks were re-recorded for the Rich Man/Poor Man 7" released in 1996 on Malarie Records.
Their 1st proper album 'Pewegno Dnia...' got released in 1999 on Malarie Records (cassette version on Nikt Nic Nie Wie). 4 tracks of that album appear on a split 7" with Fact on MCR Company.
From then I stopped following Disgusting Lies, but in the next years they released a 10" album and split album with Campus Sterminii on Italian label Agipunk.
Discogs states the band to be grindcore but they are definitely not. More your typical 90's D-beat crusty stuff. For those who are into Homomilitia, Sanctus Iuda, Infekcjia, Silna Wola, ....
