“Millko” was born in Autumn 2006 in a dark and very filthy subterranean premise in a Skopje suburb. “Millko” is the result of a joint idea that was developed by way of imagination and a need for musical expression of individual, hidden, intimate emotions. Two thirds of Millko are separated parts from their tissue, the “Nicotine,” having continued their musical path within “Millko,” which was as a logical and legitimate inheritance of “Nicotine.” “Millko” is their temporary shelter, way of living and way of facing reality. Asked about their musical expression, “Millko” said: “Can one define something which represnts a sublimate of emotions, life experiences, influences, events transformed into a format named music. Can one express in words let alone define something that is so beautiful?”

Macedonian band BERNAYS PROPAGANDA could be shortly described as danceable newwave/post-punk band with charming female vocal. But don’t be misleaded, we are talking here about extremely political band influenced by a variety of bands, from Submission Hold over Fugazi all the way to the Gossip and Gang of Four. Firm drum beats accompanied with thick and groovy bass lines are the base upon which layers of funky and broken guitar chords are placed, and above all comes unique, strong and remarkable female voice as a cherry on the top. Were lunatic enthusiasm, bursting energy and catchy atmosphere already mentioned?(Maybe because BERNAYS PROPAGANDA is deeply rooted in d.i.y. hard core scene).

Have you ever dreamed about a world full with love, peace and happiness??? Well… Jah connected this people to make this dream to come true through the guidance of music. April 2007 – the month when those citizens of the world started sending positive vibrations across the world.

The border, the war, the fake values… this is just a mirror image created to lure you to something you dont want… All this time… We are just destroying this world. The world where I live and where you live… Where we are killing each other… Where we kill someone because someone told us that he is our enemy… Are we blind? Or we close our eyes in front of the face of truth… WAKE UP!!!

Established in Bitola in the early 2004, they grown to be one of the most promising macedonian indie bands of the last decade. Singing about heroic acts of the common/ordinary people in everyday events, with brave simplification of the arrangement techniques and using as inspiration influential movements as pop art, punk, post punk and new wave, bauhaus, cubism – they’re putting together the pieces of their act. Went little bit quiet after releasig of their (too) long awaited debut album, but defenetly one for the future.
