Zmelkoow

rock

Zmelkoow are a cult Slovenian rock (baroque-folk-jazz and something in between) band from the coastal region. The core band consists of Gorazd Goga Sedmak (vocals, guitar), Žare Pavletič (bass guitar) and Aleš Koščak (drums, percussions) but they also have supporting team which are: Aleksandra Čermelj (vocal, violine), Eva Brajkovič (vocal) and Anuša Podgornik (synth, vocal, flute). They are known for funny and crazy songs and that despite this, the lyrics have a lot of deep metaphorical meaning. Their first creation was the EP Streloowod + Brrr... + Čau sonček with the song Čau Slonček that awakened the attention of the public. Their first big hit was Yo! from Kdo se je zbral? and from there on they became a favourite among rockers all over Slovenia (especially in the region from where they are), but they became known to larger, mainstream Slovenian public in 1999 with the song Bit from their Dej, nosorog, pazi kam stopaš! album. Many regard them as one of the best and most original rock bands in Slovenia, and the album Čiko, Pajo in Pako has achieved almost cult status among the youth because of it's melodical roughness, originality and lyrical content.
