The whole thing started at the end of 1988. We were sitting around in Virag's bedroom talking about making a rockband. Our plans were very simple: we only wanted to be the best rock band ever, turn the world upside down and write damn good songs. Three of us Virág, Szabóca and me Dudás. Our English was pretty poor, had a battered acoustic guitar and loads of confidence. Then Virág had to join the army and seldom came home but on those rare occasions we wrote songs (Endless blue sky, Gimme good time, House without windows). He discharged in May 1990 and somehow we managed to get a rehearsel room under a local school in an air-raid shelter. That was the "famous" CLUB. Sex, drug and rock&roll, you can imagine. Two of our best friends Jocó and Hernyó were working in Budapest that time and we tried to make them come home to join the band. Jovó arrived first. We had our debut concert with an English boy, Scott Mooney. On our first gig we played Guns 'N' Roses songs. Then Scott left for home and Hernyó turned up taking up the role of the singer. The line-up was complete at last and we set off up to the hell.

In 1991 we recorded our first demo containing fourteen songs but it turned out to be a piece of shit and we haven't dared to show it to anyone. Then Jocó quit the band because he had different ideas about the style and he was replaced by Husi who had been our one man crew for a year. He became the lead guitarist  and I took the rhythm one, fortunately.

In  1992 we recorded our second demo called Six songs and it was a bit succesful and we got our first and only record contract. We recorded the LP "Begin the season!" in 1993 and now we would like to express our deep gratitude to József Szarka 'cos he was the only guy who made it possible.

We're not satisfied with the quality of the Lp but at least we have one. And this is ours, our preciousss. During the years we had plenty of gigs around the country, moreover we got to Holland and it was pretty good to play abroad.

Unfortunately we couldn't get another record contract then, so we hit the bottom sitting in Davy Jone's locker now. But we don't give a damn shit 'bout it.

The line-up has changed a bit: Virág was replaced by Peti, Hernyó was replaced by Oláh Tomi, then he left the band as well.

The line-up now:

What should you know about Screen in 2004? Well, we're gonna record some good songs at the end of the year and thank to us they're gonna be awesome. You know we are modest as well.

GOD SAVE THE SCREEN!
