Tankcsapda

Tankcsapda, wie? Voor de kaaskoppen onder ons, Tankcsapda is al een hele tijd de grootste rockband uit Hongarije. Gestart in 1989 als een power trio, vanaf 2003 de grootste rockband door de release van het ’ Élni vagy Égni’ album. De Motörhead van Hongarije staat garant voor gouden platen en uitverkochte arena shows. Het is dan ook niet alleen voor Hongaarse expats, maar ook voor Nederlandse rockers een aanrader om te komen kijken. Egészségedre (proost)!

Tankcsapda was formed in 1989, in Debrecen, Hungary. The group started off as a power trio with only drums, bass and guitar playing punk rock, but continuously expanded their repertoire with different elements of rock music. They initially performed in small venues and published their album on small inidependent labels. The band’s first important commercial development came in 1995, with the release of their fourth album, Az Ember Tervez (Man Plans), which has become the first gold record for Tankcsapda.

In 2003, they finally crossed over to the mainstream, with the release of their Élni vagy Égni (To Live or to Burn) album, and two singles off this record: “Be Vagyok Rúgva” (“I’m Drunk”) and “Örökké Tart” (“Lasts Forever”). After the mainstream-breaking album of 2003 and the very successful compilation album that followed, they took a left turn and released one of their heaviest albums to date, Mindenki Vár Valamit (Everyone Waits for Something).

In 2013 came the 12th studio album entitled „Rockmafia Debrecen” referring their roots and hometown, Hungary’s second largest city, Debrecen. Tankcsapda attracts for years the biggest audience in Hungary, and the band from time to time plays in various European cities based on the Hungarians living there.
