Kryzys

Kryzys is a Polish rock music band, regarded as a pioneer of Polish punk rock and reggae music.[1] The origins of Kryzys go back to the year 1978, when in Warsaw, a punk rock ensemble The Boors was created by Robert Brylewski (g., voc.), Piotr Mrowiński (g.), Marek Iwańczuk (bg., later replaced by Ireneusz Wereński) and Kamil Stoor (dr.), who was in January 1980 replaced by Maciej "Magura" Góralski - poet, drummer.[2] In May 1979, the band changed the name into Kryzys, which was suggested by Brylewski. Under new name, Kryzys performed at the legendary First All-Polish Reviev of the New Wave, which took place in early August 1980 at Kołobrzeg[3] Soon afterwards, due to contacts of manager Jacek Olechowski (the brother of Andrzej Olechowski), Kryzys played a tour of Upper Silesia and Zagłębie Dąbrowskie (11 shows, together with Exodus, Turbo and Fantom), and Pomerelia (9 shows, together with Stalowy Bagaż and Izabela Trojanowska).

In the spring 1981, without the knowledge of the band, a French recording house Blitzkrieg Records issued an album entitled Solidarite avec le rock polonais, with songs of Kryzys and another underground band from Warsaw, Deadlock. Kryzys was dissolved in July 1981, after several shows which took place at a Warsaw's Intersalto Circus tent. A few weeks later, Robert Brylewski and Tomasz Lipiński founded Brygada Kryzys.

Kryzys returned in March 2006, when a concert of the reactivated band took place in Warsaw. In the summer 2008, the band performed at the Jarocin Festival, and in spring 2010, a Kryzys komunizmu album was published. Currently, the lineup of Kryzys consists of Robert Brylewski (g., voc.), Maciej Góralski (dr.), Aleksander Korecki (sax.), Martyna Załoga (bg.), Andrzej Kasprzyk (g.)

gollark: But seriously, in Go you literally cannot write `Math.max` without either using `interface{}` (effectively, dropping the type system) or probably some horrible interface hax, because lol no generics.
gollark: I see.
gollark: Oh, you mean you want a language where | is max, not where you can somehow use bitwise or for max?
gollark: If you do 0b01 | 0b10, you get 0b11, which is not right.
gollark: That... works correctly in no languages.
