Don't Panic, We're From Poland!!! part 11 - Apteka

I'm lazy bastard, but today i have something special.
Apteka is excellent polish band from Gdynia. They plays very energetic psychedelic punk. Lyrics are mostly obscene and cynical with very special sense of humour.
Band was formed in 1982. Or 1983. Or 1986. Kodym - band's leader don't remember such things.
"Menda" is their best album. Still psychedelic but with heavier sound and great riffs. Highly recommended.
