Fokofpolisiekar's new EP 'Antibiotika' contains 4 new tracks, 8 of the band's videos up to date and a preview of the full-length Fokofpolisiekar documentary that will be released later this year.
Although Fokofpolisiekar members have not focused on working together as a group in the past year, the band has performed various selected shows nationwide. The release of 'Antibiotika' makes it evident that Fokofpolisiekar still has a lot to say with their non apologetic commentary on our current socio-political status quo. 'Antibiotika' is one of Fokofpolisiekar's strongest offerings yet. 100% Confrontational. No diplomacy. 'Ek’s net 'n toeris, in my geboorteland, 'n gekweste dier in 'n hok op anti-bio-ti-ka!'
During the past year, Fokofpolisiekar's five members have been busy with new projects and bands. Since they had to negotiate and coordinate their individual tight schedules, each member has contributed to 'Antibiotika' in his own time. Guitarist Johnny de Ridder produced the new album. He drafted a skeletal frame of each of the new songs and sent it to the rest of the band so that they could work on the melodies and lyrics.
The lyrics, directly from Hunter Kennedy's diary, reflect the harsh reality of his daily observations. Francois van Coke co- wrote some of the lyrics with Hunter. The result is that which Fokofpolisiekar is so distinctively known for: the conveyance of their utmost bare and honest personal insights.
'Antibitiotika' is the first Fokofpolisiekar album that has been recorded with Theo Crous at Bellville Studios. Die previous albums were recorded at B-Sharp Studios in Boksburg.
There is also a huge hype among fans regarding the full length Fokofpolisiekar documentary that will be released later this year. The documentary is being made by Fly on the Wall. Details will be made known soon.
