En Plo
En Plo (coke Bottle Green)
En Plo was one of the most influential bands of the Greek scene. In a strange, hard-to-reach soundscape with references to rock, rebetiko, traditional and Byzantine music, the world of the band was completely defined by itself, without ever taking even a sideways glance at anything that could concern something outside of it and her needs. They released their one and only self-titled record in 1989. Unsurpassed, unwavering, waiting in vain for someone, something, anything to surpass it 35 years now. Labyrinth Of Thoughts reissues the album in a special edition of 300 copies on coke bottle green vinyl. Containing an adaptation of the cover of the first edition, a new liner note insert and 3 unreleased songs: 'Kerdises Chrono' (Demo 1989), The song that would have opened En Plo's second album if it had finally been recorded, 'No Rule' (rehearsal 1986), in a completely different performance than the one recorded for the album 3 years later and with different members, except Sadikis/Zamanos of course and 'The Sleepwalker' (Demo 1985), a song that appears in Sadikis' later personal discography, but here we hear it in its first and unrecognizable 8-minute version.
