Rock guitars with unmistakable vocal and wind instruments that determine
their original sound.
A multiform record with typical attributes and sound thanks to which you will
recognize this band without any doubt even with one ear tied behind your
back.
After the excellent initial record Amorous Fruit (Tamto, 1998), after
definitely not bad second CD Hunting Season (Escape/Monitor EMI, 2001),
continuous concerts without pompous breakups and starting their activity
again, after long five years of intense waiting of their fans the third
serial record of Brno Swordfishtrombones - Blood & Milk comes into the world.
Still the same SFT formation (MiloÜ Rejsek - vocal, Karel KrtiΦka - guitar,
Martin Zaplatφlek - bass, Dan Petr - percussion, Alois Ponφ₧il û French horn,
trumpet), in which the band has been playing without change for nine years
already, is unambiguously positive matter and you can tell it! The "floating"
sixth member Chorche Hradil (keyboard), Dan Schwarz (trombone) and also the
producer DuÜan Neuwerth (guitar, keyboard) (Tata Bojs, Umakart, Nierika à)
also played on the record among others. It was just DuÜan Neuwerth who was,
after the last little bit hollow and too manuscriptal experimenting of Colin
Stuart on the album Hunting Season, the best decision that SFT made. DuÜan
Neuwerth managed to be non-stereotyped and throughout original and at the
same time he still remained in the band services. In their sovereign
territory they together managed to get the best on the album what SFT only
foreshadowed on the first two records.
The band made a good use of its previous experience here, professional and
human as well û literally, because the recording took the whole one year, and
it may not go unnoticed that SFT finally walked through the imaginary studio
mirror into unbelievable and magic lands here. Dynamic and at the same time
by the spleen bar smoke-stained tone finally found common ground in such a
manner that it gives us the shivers and at the same time the soul tingles
with sheer happiness.
