Analenais a Croatian-Slovenianpost-hardcoreband, founded in 1997 inZagreb,Croatia. The name of the band comes from the ancientSanskritlanguage,meaning "like/by the fire".[1]
History
[edit]The band was founded in 1997 by Danijel Sikora – Six, Miodrag Gladović – Mijo, and Dubravko Dragojević – Zet, from Zagreb, Croatia. One year later Ana Franjić, also from Zagreb, joined them as leading vocalist. The fifth member, Miran Rusan from Slovenia joined in 2003. This lineup remained active until 2006 when Danijel Sikora left the band. They performed first with a substitute bassist and later with Ana Franjić not only as a vocalist, but as a bassist too. They have been a four-piece ever since.[1][2]
They released their first album in 2000, followed by a couple ofsplit albums.Since they didn't have a label and as supporters of independent publishing andDIYethics, members formed their record labelMoonlee Records,under which they released their next two albums in 2004 and 2009.[1][3][4]
Besides Croatia and Slovenia, they played all over Europe and participated in several festivals, including one of the largest independenthardcorefestivals in Europe,Fluff Festin the Czech Republic.[1][5]
