Aurora was ephemeric but very interesting polish band formed spring 1987 in Rzeszow. Music started as punk rock but changed to postpunk / coldwave with electronic accents. In 1988 Aurora recorded their first and only album "Miedzynarodowka / Internationale". Band decayed shortly after that. Due to many problem album was released in 2004.
Music on that album is innovative postpunk / cold wave with laibachish industrial insertions. Final effect could be compared to early Ministry and Front Line Assembly. Great shame that this music was forgotten for so many years.
Lyrics are even more interesting. Because problems with censorhip lyrics couldn't be in polish. Almost every track is sung in different language. Among them: english, german, spanish and even serbo-croatian!
Tracks 10 to 12 are early versions in polish language. Untitled track 13 is conversation betwen members of communist riot police during quelling demonstration.
