Up to date photo of Artrosis

This post is available in English and Polish.

Since the last change in the band’s line up, when Pawel Swica – our new drummer – joined band, we haven’t had an up to date photo of the band. Finally, just before our last gig our manager – Alexandria – took some shots. Regular photo session is due to be made in January 2008.

New Artrosis profile on MySpace

This post is available in English and Polish.

It seems that finally we are about to reach the agreement with the man who used to update Artrosis profile on MySpace. We got from him all the data need to log into the profil , and we have started reconstruction of it. You will find there the up to date history of the band, photos (taken from our gallery) and other materials. We are trying to find the way to upload our songs in Mp3 format, and we are going to upload as many videos as possible. However WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY EARLIER AND FUTURE AGREEMENTS MADE WITH 2ND and 3RD PARTY VIA MYSPACE PAGE

For concert bookings and other engagements please contact Artrosis Management: management@artrosis.art.pl

MySpace confussion

This post is available in English and Polish.

We know that many of you know our MySpace profile. Unfortunately, we – as a band – hadn’t known that till today. The reason why we were not interested in what is going on on MySpace was that we haven’t found MySpace so attractive. Meanwhile, since 2005 one of our fans – we believe that it was good intention – has set up Artrosis profile and was carrying it on without our permission and even without our knowledge about that. We have never limited activity and initiative of our fans, because every good intention, initiative of them, that gives advantages for both sides, we have always welcomed warmly. Unfortunately this time the effect was slightly opposite. Person who was updating MySpace profile introduced himself as Artrosis manager, without our knowledge and permission he made statements in behalf of the band on the profiles of other bands or people interested in invite us for concerts. There were also illegal MP3 files on the profile uploaded without our or our labels’ permission and many other materials published without the permission of the owners.  There was even completely fake concert schedule for 2008 (schedule for spring 2007 with changed year for 2008). I contacted with that man, and I informed him about all his faults and abuses, demanding revising of the content of Artrosis profile, and providing the proper correct and accurate information about the band. He decided to shut down the profile.  I know, that many of you have your accounts on MySpace and you added Artrosis profile to your fiends list. I know that many of you was surprised when you discovered that you were removed from Artrosis profile friends list. I would like to assure you of the fact that you will never be removed from the real list of our friends, and that list is in our hearts, not on the MySpace. Also We will do our best to set up new official Artrosis profile on MySpace.

Nadchodzące koncerty – słów kilka o supportach

DYSONANS (wystąpią przed Artrosis w Zabrzu, 2.12.07):

DysonansKapela ta istnieje pod obecną nazwą od połowy września 2006r. Muzyka Dysonansu to chwytliwe melodie, ciekawe teksty, wyrazisty, mocny wokal, silne uderzenie i delikatność w jednym. Nie brak tu też gitarowych solówek jak na prawdziwy zespół rockowy przystało, a klawisze budują niezwykły, tajemniczy nastrój. To, co wykonuje Dysonans nazywano już art-rockiem, rockiem progresywnym, a nawet pewnego rodzaju odmianą metalu. Jakkolwiek tego nie nazwać, Dysonans tworzy muzykę, która na pewno zostanie na długo w waszych głowach!

REDRUM (wystąpią przed Artrosis w Kaliszu – 30.11.07, w Płońsku8.12.07 i Częstochowie 9.12.07):

RedrumHistoria tej zelowskiej grupy sięga 2001 roku, jednak wg jego członków przełomowym okazał się rok 2004, kiedy to zespół zaczął pojawiać się w lokalnych mediach w Łodzi i okolicach. Zespół dość często koncertuje w centralnej Polsce, znany jest zwłaszcza fanom muzyki rockowej z Łodzi (kilka występów w klubie Dekompresja), gdzie pojawił się jako support m.in. przed zespołami Coma i Kat.

LILITH – Radom (wystąpią przed Artrosis w Łodzi – 7.12.07):

LilithPochodzący z Radomia zespół LILITH pojawił się już u boku Artrosis na kilku koncertach (Lublin, Płock i Radom). Swą działalność rozpoczął w 1999 roku. Przez 8 lat swego istnienia radomskie LILITH dorobiło się pokaźnego zbioru świetnych utworów oraz kilku teledysków, które ukazały się na niezależnych wydawnictwach zespołu (głównie demo) oraz na splicie z innym radomskim zespołem Carrion. Swego czasu dużym echem w polskiej scenie niezależnej odbił się przygotowany przez LILITH cover utworu “Season In The Abbys” z repertuaru grupy Slayer. Zespół zagrał wiele świetnych koncertów w całej Polsce. Skład grupy ewoluował od jego powstania, jednak niezmiennym jego trzonem są dwie charakterystyczne osobowości wokalistki Agnieszki “Lorien” Czerwińskiej i gitarzysty Krzyśka Łyżwińskiego.
