In the previuos post I wrote about “Chyrvonym pa Belamu” music group. Now I also would like to mention another of my favorites: J-Mors. I was introduced to J-Mors couple years ago and since that time I became a huge fan of this rock band from Belarus. There is something different about these guys: lirics, vocal, music…While there are many Belarusian groups playing excellent music, J-Mors well positioned itself in a soft-rock nische where it seems to thrive and grow its fan base.

At the time, my only complain was about the language: they seemed to lean towards songs in Russian language. And while there is nothing terribly wrong with it, their songs in Belarussian sounded as good if not better.

So in November 2007 the band released “Adlehlasc” (”Distance”), their first album to feature only Belarusian-language songs! Apart from 11 tracks it includes the 15 minute concept video “Adlehlasc” documenting a road trip of Belarus, taken by the band in autumn 2007. Have a good road trip!
