Now imagine: 80's in Poland, when nobody in bussiness really cares for metal bands, most of them are garage bands, some of the more courageous try growling with variable results, most of them try high pitch screaming, with variable results, and suddenly Roman Kostrzewski appears. And he does not growl, but he represents pure, unhinged madness. And he was the most extreme vocal on the scene.
"Mag-Sex", not "Sex Mag" ("mag" means "magician" in Polish. It's the story of lyrical subject, who grew up in the woods, and was brought up by witches, Devil-worshippers). Check out the original, studio version, which is brilliant.
I'm surprised that Mr Bynkowsky didn't request this band as they are from Poland. They've been around for like forever. Formed in 1979. Not sure as to which singer this one is. But over all they play great music. Just don't understand what they are singing about.
I'll add it my friend, we can do it on the first listenes cuz to be honest I am not sure the audio quality was all that, I know you have other requests BUT.. I am gonna add it to tthe First Listens!
Dudes looking like this singing about sex mags (or perhaps just ONE sex mag if we go by the title)???? No, thank you. Hey, I'm a GIRL...not sorry! There is too much inequity in this world with that kind of crap. This qualified as a partial pass for me anyway...beginning was too slow to suit me, when it kicked in I thought it was kinda cool, but then the vocal totally lost me. So, there's that.
This is an example of how things don't translate too well across languages. Mag is not short for - magazine, it means - magician, sorcerer. The lyrics tell a story of a boy who was found by the witches in the woods, and raised by them. He later became a sorcerer. The sex part is the reference to how the witches used to praise the devil.

Właśnie miałem zaproponować ;)

Sex-mag is just "sex-mage". It's about the guy raised by witches.
Tony Iommi has a brother that plays drums?! Sex Mags & Guitar World mags are both hard to throw out , when the time comes.
Kat! Nice mega! Kat is general metal on the world. Best regards from Poland
Thanks Shane but I wished you played the Studio Cd version, this is one of those songs that sounds terrible played live in my opinion

Mag means wizard in Polish
Magician rather than wizard.
