It seems flexibility is becoming the number one virtue of ANALENA. Long term plans can be nice, but sometimes you just have to say fuck*it*jebi*ga*sta*mozes and adopt the present situation.

Last time we announced we will get back on stage when our bass player Davor returns from the cruiser. Well, wishes and reality sometimes don't match. He returned home earlier then planned and he already departed on new half-year shift as well. Which unfortunately mean we had to cancel few shows we already booked and (again) postpone our comeback to the next year. We wish the most it would be different. Anyway, it was supernice to hang around with Davor at least for few days.

However, we decided ANALENA will continue as a happy four-piece in the future, since it is pretty clear Davor will spend next 2-3 years on cruisers and it doesn't really make sense to wait for these 1-2 months a year when he comes back to the continent. Ana will play bass and keep screaming her lungs off, and the others will keep trying to add right dose of grizzli growls as well. Now we will need some time and practice to tune ourselves in completely. Once again, let's stay patient and enjoy our lives until then.

In the meantime, our guitar player Mijo became the happy father of beautiful baby named Tara. It's great. In the long term punkrock kids will keep punkrock alive, or even start something new and better !

And there is another important and cheerful issue. This autumn ANALENA celebrates its 10th anniversary ! ! ! Which means that instead of crying and whining why we don't come and play a show in xxxxx city, you should rather bake a delicious vegan cake, make some lemonade, chill few beers, invite your friends, put on some nice music and spend great times with the people you love. As simple as that.

Speaking of (nice) music. Few years ago we recorded cover song by The Clash (Guns of Brixton) for some Tribute to The Clash compilation, which unfortunately never came out. As we pretty much like that song it would be a pity if you don't have the chance to listen, dance and scream to it. It is just few clicks away – check out our myspace profile and enjoy!

Stay nice and enjoy your lives !
