Just like Tamas Rupaszov in Trottel, we don’t write biography either, because writing about our past would take up too much space. So this way only the most important events and thoughts are written down. After 3 wonderful years, in December of 1995 after a horrible concert the Shitheads were broken up. (Keti-singer, Laca-guitarist, Kakukk-drummer, Ági- bass-player). There’s a lot more to say about this, but the passion towards making music hasn’t subsided, so in 1996 with the old musicians (Laca-guitarist, Kakukk-drummer, Ági- bass-player) and with a new singer (Kinga) The Snobs was founded.
The name came instinctively and only after many years did it register that in the Shitheads’ last song our new path was designated and formulated. The punk lost its original meaning and it was only ’nostalgic night’, against which it fought. The underground produced its own stereotypes, its larger than life „oldies,” its role models, its own Snob world. Due to this it was an obvious choice to erect a mirror and to keep it up even until today. Besides Ági, the founding members were already replaced by 1996. Kinga (who founded the Nyápic Publishings) moved to France, Kakukk spent months in a hospital, and Laca’s life was overtaken by drugs, and even after fighting for his life he died in February of 2000. His replacement, who also became the band’s pillar member was Vityka. In the many years to come many members were ’digested’ by the band’s lifestyle and its refusal to settle the undiminished front.
The point is that we exist, we have thoughts, and we are in constant movement. The Snobs, same as the Shitheads, has always been more than just a band. And it’s direct result is that in August of 2000, together with Barackca, gave birth to Nem-Art Independent Music Association. So in May of 2004 leaving Nem-Art behind, but taking the same ideas with them, X-Art project was founded in which many Snob members took part. In the summer of 2004, the present line up was established [Márti-singer, Menyus-guitarist, Vityka-guitarist, Lufi-drummer, Ági [Aggi] bass-player], which is characterised by the strongest possible human bond and activity.
