==History== ===1990s: Formation and early career=== The band was formed on the initiative of Adam Konkol in 1996 in Pszów, southern Poland, with all its members originating from Racibórz and Wodzisław Śląski counties. The group released a demo album later that year and debuted with a full-length, self-released album Słońce (Sun) in December 1998. The album passed unnoticed although Łzy toured consequently and grew local fanbase. The band was briefly signed to Warner Music Poland who released the single "Aniele mój" in 1999.
