He returns with this song "Bestoj fiaj", which he sang to the music of the punk-hardcore band from Toulouse, Arrach, and thus contributes to the compilation Esperanto Subgrunde 2.

2- Brassens Not dead

    

Brassen's Not Dead is a French anarcho-punk rock band from Toulouse, France. It was created in 2006 to revive the memory of Georges Brassens, reinterpreting his songs in Punk versions, preserving the humor and the spirit of protest. The musicians, originally from the punk movement of the 1980s and 1990s (Les Sheriff, les Valseuzes, Trashbug, etc.), all have solid musical experience and share a communicative enthusiasm for Georges Brassens' lyrics.

For this compilation, Brassens Not Dead takes the translations that were made for Jacques Yvart's first Esperanto album.

5- Eveline Paŭla

Eveline Paŭla  is a Brazilian Esperantist who writes songs in Portuguese and Esperanto.
She likes to make good songs that touch the mind and the heart and also move the body.
Eveline Paula graduated in pedagogy and is now studying Literature.

About the song «Kiu mi estas?» Eveline says: I am very grateful to Julio Caligari who suggested I compose punk rock music, and to his daughter Marianna who inspired the melody for me with her song "Morceguinhos".

I listened to some punk rock songs and I thought this new song should be about something more intimate. Writing the song I felt a duality in my heart like I was good and bad at the same time, and I also remembered people who told me who I was and what I should be and think.

... and this is how this song was born.

Text and music: Eveline Faria Fernandes de Paula
Singer: Eveline Paŭla
Score: Valéria Caffaro
Review: Angela Faria

Arrangement and music recording: Rafael Milhomem

7- Frakasu

The band Frakasi was formed in early 2010 in Ivanovo, Russia, by Vladimir, also known as Jan Ali Sin, when he and his friends began rehearsing and recording domestic demo songs. The initial intention was to play hardcore 50/50 in Russian and Esperanto. Stable membership only came in 2012: Vladimir - vocals, Bob - guitar, Mikhail - bass and Denis - drums. In the spring of 2012 the band started performing. During the year, about half a dozen DIY gigs took place at various underground venues in Ivanovo and Moscow - rock clubs, rehearsal bases and squats. During the last concert Frakasi played in one scene with popular punk band Purgen, after that concert Vladimir decided to disband his group.

In addition to playing in Frakasi, Vladimir recruited for Esperanto among Russian punk musicians and distributed homemade CDs with Esperantocore music. That's why he was inspired to record tracks in Esperanto with some other Russian punk bands - "SocialZero", "Rezistanco", "Skverna", and started collecting material for the new Esperanto compilation.

In the summer of 2021 Vladimir relaunched the band with a fresh membership by slightly changing the name of the group to Frakasu.

In the spring of 2021, Jan from the band Frakasu (then not reformed) met Alexei from the Petersburg (Russian) group Ruĝa Espero. Jan showed Alex his newly written songs. Alexei immediately offered to record something together, and chose an outline of Jan's song "Nevidebluloj".

Alex arranged the music and played all the instruments, and Jan sang.

Jan Ali Sin is also developing a solo punk electro project with his debut album « Punk’ ne mortis ».

 

 

9- JoMo kaj Liberecanoj

This band was formed in 1998 on the occasion of the recording of the album in honor of the anarchists in Spain in 1936 and the Ukrainian anarchists of the Machnovshchina. Pure anarcho-punk rock album in Esperanto.

10- Krio de Morto

Krio de Morto from Poznań, Poland (now Glasgow-Poznań). Started as a simple anarchic punk band in 1986. Fast forward to hardcore and even crossover, as one member liked metal music too much.

Its new current music mixes elements of industrial music, metal, electronics, and evolves into a style that the band describes as "death dance".
