Drawbacks is founded back in 1996 by two cousins : Boba - guitars, vocals and Misha - drums.
The whole idea behind it was to play old dirty hardcore/punk our favorite bands used to play, for example the Misfits,
Discharge, Agnostic Front, Sick Of It All, Suicidal Tendencies, Varukers, Murphy's Law etc...After several line-up changes,
and couple of self-released demos, band is recording the first album in the spring of 2000,which is released
in 2001 on MC by Rock Express Records. B- side of the tape is the "best of" compilation of the songs from early demos.
Very soon after the album came out, the lead singer Pop is leaving the band. Although Drawbacks never had exact hc/punk sound,
we always had our own approach to that music, after Pop's departure, the sound have changed totally! You can say it is
a mix of metal/core and something that sounds like jazz/rock/etno?!!! Some say we've got ourselves a problem with that "artistic"
attitude, they say some people can't dig that music...We never cared,It's always been like this - some people really like us/some really dislike us,
nothing in between...We started working on the new album in 2002. but various personal things and problems slowed us down, so we entered
the studio in 2004, and finished recording in 2007.
In the meantime in remembrance of those good old days and songs(some still have been played live), band released the CD "First Five Years In The Pit",
in 2006,again under the flag of Rock Express Records.The CD is almost 65 minutes long, contains the whole "Look At The Score" album(A side of the tape),
bunch of live shots from various shows, couple of unreleased demos and two totally new songs, recorded right after Pop's departure with the band, In 2002...
Throughout the years Drawbacks played hundreds of shows and shared stage with bunch of cool bands, for example: L.U.R., Hitman, Eyesburn, Smut(Macedonia), Tibia, 100 Demons(USA), Debeli Precjednik(Croatia), 357, Discord, Ground Zero, Full Size, Riblja Chorba, Last Hope(Bulgaria), Gangbangers, Face It, Thimble, POAL, T-Error, KBO!...
You can say we really had fun, and we still rocking it!!!
New album "Sacrosanctic" came out in June 20008. Again, it..s a mix of metal, rock, jazz and hardcore, beautifully packed in 8 songs of pure hatred and sorrow!!! New CD is out on Flying Buffallo records, please check it out and support the Serbian underground!!!
