Bez ladu a skladu were founded in 1985, and soon after their first performance, the leaders of the then Trenčín alternative scene CHVM took them to a concert in Bratislava. There was the “good fairy of the Czech alternative music” Lenka Zogatová with the band E who offered an invitation to the Pragueʼs Rockfest 86; since then, the band played mostly for Czech alternative clubs and festivals. Important concerts before 1989, however, were also those at the Slovak festival Čertovo oko (Devilʼs eye) in 1987 and 1988, a sort of precursor to the multimedia festival, which began to emerge in the nineties. Before 1989, the band had a number of problems with the official regime; after the Velvet Revolution, they started to release CDs and play in Czechoslovakia as well as in Western Europe.
