Bunalım

Bunalım (which means "depression" or "frustration" in Turkish), founded in the summer of 1969, was one of the most well-known underground groups on the Turkish music scene of the early '70s. Although their discography is limited to only a few singles, Bunalım is regarded as a seminal band in Turkish music history, who paved the way for its members to find fame later on in their careers (playing with Erkin Koray, Moğollar, [a4298795], Edip Akbayram). Bunalım released 6 singles between 1970 and 1972 which are incredibly rare, and never completed a whole album. They were produced and managed by legendary Turkish rock musician and instigator of the Anatolian rock movement Cem Karaca, one of the most important rock singers in Turkey during the '70s. Their music is a raw and wild mix of heavy psychedelic rock with elements of the Turkish musical tradition.
