Krátky proces was a Slovak skinhead and neo-Nazi rock band. The band significately influenced formation of the skinhead movement in Slovakia and belonged to the most popular bands in this cathegory.[1]

History

The core of the band was formed during the last years of communism in Czechoslovakia (1987-1988). In January 1990 (shortly after the Velvet Revolution), Krátky proces performed its first concert in Bratislava. Thereafter, amateur recording of the concert was distributed by the fans, but the members of Public Against Violence considered the official prohibition of the band. In this period, the first skinheads began to visit common concerts of alternative music bands. In 1993, the band recorded its first official album Na prach! (To dust!) in the studio of the Slovak state radio.[1] Their songs espouse an aggressively nationalist perspective, the band sang about Slovakia without national minorities, verbally attacked the Jews, Romani and foreign students, covered popular song of pro-fascist Hlinka Guard and demanded the physical elimination of the enemy. In the song Poďme na to spolu (Let's make it together) the band called for "cleaning" of the country and burning of dirt in ovens, indirectly referencing to Nazi concentration camps.

After the break-up of Krátky proces, the former members founded a new neo-Nazi band Juden Mord. The radicalism of Juden Mord exceed also ideas presented by Krátky proces and the band openly propagated Nazism.[2] The cover of their first and the only one album Arbeit Macht Frei! used a photo of the Auschwitz concentration camp.[2]
