Back in the day, when combining metal with hardcore was deemed sacrilegious in Poland, they were one of the first to commit this blasphemous marriage. Today, Frontside are living legends of Polish metalcore. Years have passed, but theyโve never lost it โ theyโre even more extreme now. Surely, you feel tempted?ย
History:
Frontsideโs journey began in 1993 in Sosnowiec. During the first couple of years, they were mostly releasing demos, building their credibility on the hardcore scene. In 2000, the time came for more concrete moves, namely, a split album with 1125 and an EP, Poczฤ tek ery nienawiลci, with their material from it โ a cult record among their fans. In 2001, the band truly broke through, releasing into the world their debut album โฆnasze krรณlestwo, potฤga i chwaลa na wiekiโฆ. A year later, they came back swinging with their sophomore record, considered by many to be their magnum opus โ I odpuลฤ nam nasze winy. After its release, Frontside signed with Regain Records; the album also won a Fryderyk award in the Best Album of the Year โ Heavy Metal category. On the subsequent records, the band maintained their metalcore style until 2014, when they released Sprawa jest osobista, the bandโs one-time-only venture into rock territories. Frontsideโs latest full-length record is Zmartwychwstanie.ย
