Dežurni krivci are a grunt rock band from the Prlekija region. Since their beginnings in 1996, they’ve released four studio albums and the Izštekani album with live recordings from the Izštekani show on Radio Val 202. They supported their releases with several music videos and numerous shows, gaining significant initial momentum with a gig at Novi Rock 2000. On their albums, the band adheres strictly to an underground garage rock drive, characterised both by a varied rhythm section and excellent guitar manipulation. The band also piles on a copious amount of excellent guitar riffs, going from old hard tricks and stoner overdrive to alternative, post-grunge and slightly noise approaches. Though the band’s sound resides within very raw and basic environments, the songs are very varied. They have just the right amount of basic rock ‘n’ roll vibration, garage independence and modern hard fatality. In addition, the band can showcase both raw rock and quite poetic aspects. And even in these calmer moments, Dežurni Krivci stick with a raw, sharp and uncompromising rock sound.
ŠKUC R.O.P.O.T. is undoubtedly one of the most important concert organizers in Slovenia. They’ve been active since 1981 and have organised more than 200 major gigs so far, including David Bowie, Lou Reed, Sex Pistols, Bob Dylan, Nirvana, Patti Smith, Kraftwerk, Pearl Jam, Public Enemy, Rage Against the Machine, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Metallica, ZZ Top, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Pixies, Queens of the Stone Age, Laibach and more. Whenever possible, R.O.P.O.T. invited local acts to warm up for foreign headliners, and has also promoted local bands since the beginning through the Novi Rock festival and club gigs. These included Dežurni Krivci, who have been one of the best alternative rock bands for more than two decades, though not nearly well-known enough even after five excellent albums.
