Artist description
Arjuna Band was formed one summer afternoon in 1996. when two guys were discussing about borders. Everything is well unless you cross a border line - it is always your decision to set the border lines. The name (Arjuna Band) was taken from the first few verses of Bhagavad Gita. Arjuna asks Krishna what he should do: on one hand he is a warrior and he should fight, and on the other, there are his cousins in the enemy army. Krishna in fact says nothing, so it is on Arjuna to decide where the borders are and whether he should cross some of them.All lyrics are in Croatian, although they were translated to English for the benefit of possible readers. All the music was created between 1996 and 1998 but only recently we tried to translate it into an electronically appropriate format. Shito '00. |

Press Reviews
Truly innovative, homemade folk music utilizing household appliances as percussion instruments. For instance, the backline of "Your Hands" mixes warm acoustic guitar, playful vocals, and a full matchbox shaken in maraca style. -Listen.com "Mellow, acoustic little song from this band outta Zagreb, Croatia. I dig it.". The creator of "Independent Rock Bands from Croatia and America" commenting "Here I Am" song of Arjuna Band. Do write some reviews... Negative criticism welcome. |
