new century classics was formed in may 2006 by a group of friends and refugees from various parts of the world, centered around a mutual love of good music and the desire to fill their time and their hands with as many instruments as possible. the band consists of two poles, a polish-american and a polish-canadian hybrid, and an italian who's decent at banging on things with sticks. always experimenting, new century classics is constantly acquiring new sounds and new instruments (when they can afford it).
if necessary, new century classics' music can be defined as post-rock. however, genres tend to be limiting and definitions are better left in dictionaries on shelves.
in the second half of 2008, new century classics will release their first LP through the Polish label FDM.
New Century Classics zalozyla w polowie 2006 roku grupka przyjaciól pochodzacych z róznych czesci swiata - Polski, Ameryki, Kanady i Wloch. Kierowala nimi milosc do muzyki oraz pragnienie tworzenia jej przy uzyciu mozliwie jak najwiekszej ilosci instrumentów. NCC poszukuja swego brzmienia, stylistycznie oscylujac w okolicach post-rocka i instrumentalnego popu. Sami jednak z dystansem odnosza sie do definicji gatunkowych, uwazajac by nie staly sie one ograniczeniem dla zywej muzyki.
Pierwsza dlugograjaca plyta zespolu powinna ukazac sie najpózniej do polowy roku 2008, nakladem FDM.
