Biography
2008: OPUSZCZAMY BABILON (LEAVING BABYLON) CD NNNW RECORDS
The IL-62 band was formed in the mid’80’s in Warsaw. They are one of the bands which incessantly act in Warsaw underground till nowadays. They have been playing in the same (but now even bigger) line-up since they set up the band. Their music is a combination of hard-core/punk rage, dirty and noisy fascination of form, trance and sound expression.
In 2008 they released official album called ,,Opuszczamy Babilon” which was their first CD full album. It was released by Nikt Nic Nie Wie. The album is outstanding mixture of roots-psychedelic, hardcore-punk-noise sounds with reference to trance, Kryzys and Ginsberg... Among invited guests you can hear Maciej Magura Goralski (Kryzys, Bakszysz) along with the rising star of the independent scene, 3 years old Dharma.
At the beginning of 21st century band tracks (recordings) were represented at few compilations e.g. "Nie ma zagrozenia, jest Dezerter" (2005), "Radio Lampa" (Lampa nr 12, 2004) and "Dolina Lalek - Tribute To Kryzys vol 1" (2003).
Slawomir Golaszewski about the IL-62 band in one of author’s auditions in PR3 Polish Radio:
Although it is believed that everybody take the inspiration from what is called mass and pop culture it seems that more often it heard some music projects define its makers as a avangarde, every time the same in every generation. Musicians of IL-62 band grew up (just like they say about themselves) listening to the music of the Kryzys band. This placed them in classic area. This kind of cultural heritage we called ,,tradition”. Inside this tradition AUTONOMY has her own form and autonomous figure which is above the commerce and mythology. Perception and freedom which it called ,,anarchy” is related with awareness of the MOUVMENT which seemed to be more personal than popular (demotic) and because of it has propaganda dimension.

Lukasz Walczuk (merlin.pl) about the album "Nie ma zagrozenia, jest Dezerter":
Finale of whole compilation and simultaneously the most ambitious undertaking of IL-62 is variation of the ,,Anarchy” and ,,Anarchist” topic. Interesting combination of both tracks and putting them to the frame of music which resemble accomplishments of Tool and Neurosis bands, makes a huge impression, underlining fact that the creation of Dezeter can be represent in more modern and authentic way.

Jagoda S. Frycz (Teraz Rock nr 12/2003) about the „Dolina Lalek - Tribute To
Kryzys vol.1" album:
As usual, covers can be bitten for a different way.(...)It is possible-and that’s the best approach – to keep composition’s spirit, giving impress of own style. That’s what Alians did with Ambicja wind section,IL-62 go up at the new level Armageddon (this vocal line)Happy Pills with remarkable, cosy version ,,Telewizja” or ,,Ssaki” handle with ,,Malymi Psami”.
