From record label:
"Cinkuši won me over on the very first hearing, as a genuine ethno-punk band which lives up to both parts of that label. Their belonging to the ethno camp requires no detailed explanation; yet this kajkavian version of The Pogues also possesses an indisputable punk ethos. In other words, there’s a passionate dedication to both their regional roots and contemporary interpretations, something which has been fully expressed on each of their albums.
This latest one seems to be even more deeply immersed in their emotions and view of life, particularly due to their having selected the ultimate lyricists. On this CD Cinkuši have once again clearly proved their intention of remaining true to themselves, regardless of which way the wind is blowing in Croatian show business.

To sum up: Cinkuši are among our most precious oases of sincerity, consistency and talent."
Darko Glavan

"The group has appeared at festivals in Croatia, Slovenia, Belgium and the Netherlands, contributed to theatre productions (Shakespeare’s Hamlet, directed by Zlatko Vitez), films (Transatlantik, a feature film by Mladen Juran; Ciganjska, an animated film by Marko Meštrović and Davor Međurečan), and collaborated with musicians like Teta Liza, Lidija Bajuk, and Vlado Kreslin.

The Belgian-Dutch promoter ArteFacts included Cinkuši on their compilation album and 2003/2004 artist roster, as well as a January 2004 mini-tour together with Kimmo Pohjonen (Finland), The Waterboys (England), The Hothouse Flowers (Ireland) and other outstanding names on the music scene."
