Chor vazskych muzikantov ( Choir of Vah Musicians )
active from year 1982
(also called CHVM) Slovak underground band; the core of it was based on the students group The We from Trencin (also using alternative names like "Yellow Dodo And Company" or "Weco"). The beginnings are tightnly connected to Bratislava university club Primaf (Natural Science And Mathematics-and-Physics Faculty; two of the band members, Berith and Olzbut, studied here).
