Genia Tou Haus   Read the text in GREEK
                   

A classic punk band which first appeared in 1982 with the name "ANTIKOULTOURA", while in 1983 it was renamed as "GENIA TOU HAOUS" (= Generation of Chaos). At first, they circulated a tape in cooperation with the punk band "ADIEXODO" which had the title: "H genia tou haous kai to adiexodo sas eyxontai Kalo Pasxa" ( production: Art Nouveau)
The first synthesis of the band was:
Dimitris Drakopoulos (voice) , 
Thodoris Hliakopoulos (drums and  voice) ,
Kostas Hatzopoulos (guitar) ,
Nikos Vosdogiannis (bass).
In 1984 they participated in the collection "Diataraxi koinis isihias" (Enigma records) with two songs, the "Epithanatios rogxos" and the classical "Bastardokratia". During that period their synthesis included two new members, Aki Abrazi (bass) and Gianni Venardi (drums). Venardis was also a member of the bands "Adiexodo" and "Lefki simfonia".
In 1986 their first lp was released with the title "Requiem", from "Dikaioma Diavasis Records". At that time the members of the band were: Thodoris Hliakopoulos (drums,voice), Kostas Hatzopoulos (guitar), Dimitris-Ozzy- Pappas (guitar) and Alexis Aliferis (bass). During the  same year the band played as a support band with the Dutch band "EX".
It is worth to mention that in 1997 a common republication of the two lps ("Genia tou Haous" and "Requiem") was released from Wipe Out Records .
Insubordinate, exhausting, hot-headed sound, a musical delirium of rebellion. Radical, upsetting, impetuous lyrics, like storms of emotions. Subjects full of question marks for every form of authority, power and hierarchy. Screams of despair for the hypocrisy, the oppression, the corruption and everything that annihilates the human.
And what is the result of all this?
A band that is being heard insatiably and passionately. Always.
