The current music trajectory of Zgniłość can be defined as: post-post-ironic post-cold-wave post-yass. The band audaciously refers to the best Pomeranian and Cracow music traditions. May 2017 brought the releases of a double full-length audiobook entitled “Dobra Zmiana” authored by Marcin Świetlicki (Wydawnictwo 5a). The music is provided by Zgniłość. “Dobra Zmiana” is the first ever audiobook to feature the recording of a band improvising live and interacting with the audience.
Currently, Zgniłość is on a tour promoting the band’s second album, “Siedmiościan”. The release includes original compositions and a number of surprising reinterpretations (such as “Mmmorderstwo” or “Przysiadalność”). The recording features guest appeareances by the legendary trumpeter Antoni Ziut Gralak, a famous acress and German philologist Julia Kamińska and other household names. The album is promoted via singles: “Hotel Savoy’ and “To ten sam wiatr” . The album has received the Top Note of the magazine JazzPRESS (November 2017).
