KUZLE

KUZLEIdrija, Slovenija, former Yugoslavija…..Idrija is a Slovenian town that was famous in the eighties for it’s quick silver mine, lace, žlikrof dumplings, psychiatric hospital and a punk band named KUZLE (bitches, female dogs). Today it’s known mostly for two big factories and for it’s apathetic residents, a real gost town one could say. Once upon a time it was not like this…On the remains of different rock and punk bands, a group of young boys got together in the eighties and formed a band. They had many things in common: were all full of hormones, read the Yugoslave rock magazine Ðuboks, were fanaticaly buying vinil records in Italy and listened, felt and lived for punk music. Soon the band Kuzle was formed, the memberes were: Dare Kauric guitar/back vokal, Bojan Lapanja vokal, Iztok Turk drums, DuÅ¡an Moravec bass guitar/back vokal. In the following years they made almost sixty songs, had around thirty gigs, a few recordings, appeared on TV and radio stations and issued a compilation Lepo je (’It is beautiful’). Later on they changed two drumers, first Bojan Pajer then Iztok Lampe. Unfortunately the endless years the members had to serve the military service for the National army of Yugoslavia changed everything in the band and Kuzle soon become a part of the past. People went their way, Yougoslavia disintegrated. And now, after 25 years, the recorded songs are found and introduced to the public.
