After a long search and experimenting with various combinations, three musicians Dario Divković, Tonći Zelić, and Vinko Lelas finally joined forces to create something authentic and explosive, and thus the band Pardon was born.
It all started when drummer Dario and bassist Tonći invited Vinko, with whom they already shared friendship in local bands, to join them, recognizing in him exactly what they were missing; vocals and guitar. Vinko agreed, leaving his mark and contributing to the already prepared material, which quickly matured for recording. Soon they entered the studio of Toma Miladinović and recorded 13 songs for their debut album “Dalmatinska rapsodija” (PDV071), which represents an energetic blend of punk with hints of rock, metal, and hardcore, refreshing sound that reflects the honesty and passion of the three musicians.
Mostly driven by unfavorable trends, their music is not just an expression of rebellion and dissatisfaction, but also a call for change and a better tomorrow. Through their sound and lyrics, Pardon aims to inspire people and leave the world a better place for future generations.
The debut album “Dalmatinska rapsodija” released by PDV Records, is now available digitally and on CD on all streaming platforms (YouTube, Bandcamp), and the PDV web shop –> https://www.pdv.com.hr/hr/store/pardon-dalmatinska-rapsodija-cd. In addition to our website and streaming platforms, you can find the CD in the PDV record store, located on the 1st floor of Pločnik, Međimurska 21 in Zagreb, as well as in all stores in the PDV distribution.
Tomorrow, April 13, the concert promotion of the album launch will take place on their home turf, at Dali Bar in Makarska, starting at 21:00.
The album’s concert promotion in Zagreb is scheduled for exactly one week later, on April 19, at DVA OSAM, where they will join Slovenian hardcore veterans Wasserdicht for a punk spectacle and present their debut material to the audience.
