Here the guitarist is closing the show on her pedals, having laid the guitar aside.

Although Cafe na pul cesty is not officially a hardcore club, most of the bands that play there are. However, Žen, meaning "woman" in both Croatian and Czech (depending on the case), were a Croatian space rock band who fell outside this category. They were loud, but the style wasn't anything like hardcore. For much of the show, the guitarist was fiddling with the knobs on her pedals to sustain notes, feedback, and ambient noise for seconds or minutes at a time. The drummer managed to play keyboards at the same time as the drums, too, which is possible if you use the amount of sampling and sustain that this band did.
