4 stars The name of this album in English would be something like "The Story of a Chicken". And the chikin' is just a metaphor a vehicle which carries the intended purpose forward. Simply put, it's the story of life's journey, very poetically heavy, almost nothing in the lyrics is meant literally. Or at least that's how I understand it. Thus as being Czech native speaker, I am at bit of advantage over many of the foreign listeners.

When you leave the words out, you get the second part of what "Příběh kuřete" is, musically mellow and atmospheric, very chilled out (almost post-rockish at times). Very melodically active, like a volcano choke full of seismic activity. Gentle guitarwork, abrupt return to the melodic hooks

I cannot "shut off" the lyrics or my understanding of them. For my listening experience, the music+lyrics parts are joined into one. You who do not understand Czech language have this unique opportunity. I wouldn't damn this album just because it's in foreign unknown language (as I heard few people telling me, worried they wouldn't enjoy it much).

Or is it about the chickens after all? You can decide for yourselves, the album has an official bandcamp page where you can listen to it and also buy it. The youtube exists too.
