The Kurws (nowadays called Kurws) formed in 2008 in Wrocław, Poland as a spontaneous consequence of a ping-pong session, which descended underground and remains there until today. They drew on influences arising from punk rock as well as rock'n'roll tradition, garage rock, krautrock, rotten funk, no wave or the British post-punk scene. The band is punk, afflicted by the postmodernist curse with all of its benefit of inventory, where things are being born out of fusion and deconstruction.
