A large portion of songs are about personal frustration, loneliness and darkness. And a lot of anger. ČAD is a trio that collaborates not only in music but also releases books. They write, illustrate and publish. All recordings are released in D.I.Y. style under Vandal records. The band played in Brasil, Germany, Italy, Denmark, Sweden, and constantly in Czech Republic and of course at home. ČAD is one of the oldest constantly working extreme band in its region.
