Okay, I have to admit I was really hesitant to show up for this show, although Kolowrat are my dearest friends, as you can see from many previous occasions here. I have just been dispassionate and a little disillusioned about my photography. However, I have overcome this unwillingness and the laziness of friday night and rightfully so.
When I turned up, the new lineup of Kolowrat was already on stage in full power, with the new bassist, Janko Horňák, performing their new songs, created in a really collaborative spirit. These songs, such as ráno ráno (morning morning), mladí a hlúpi (the young and stupid), Niky už vie (Nicky knows already), , benefit from the creative input of the guitarist Robo "Pajky" Rímsky, who introduced delicate guitar patterns, but also massive soundscapes into the new pieces, as Nepokoj v tele (A bodily unrest), Zámok v porceláne (A Castle in Porcelain) which was introduced U Očka. There is also another new element in the band's chemistry - vocal harmonies provided by the band members, most notably the drummer, Zuzana. As I was later told by Peter, the lead guitarist, these harmonies were painstakingly rehersead over and over even during the road to their gigs in Bratislava and Prague.
As for Kolowrat's future plans: no concerts scheduled, but plenty of room for completing the new set of the songs and completing the album somewhere near Košice, their hometown. And a possible show with Longital in Prague in December, if my sister's plans to book them for their college club, named K4.
I am really happy for them!
