Re: SZTORM 68
According to the description you posted, SZTORM '68 are a Strasserist band—which would explain their hailing of "Aryan worker unity" and their apparent belief in a sinister Judeo-communist/capitalist plot to destroy Europe—not a National Bolshevik band.
But music is music. I would be lying if I claimed I didn't listen to any reactionary bands.

Re: SZTORM 68
SZTORM 68 supported the nationalist wing of the Polish Communist Party (Generals Moczar and Jaruzelski https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qahbKa83aiA&feature=related and GRUNWALD Patriotic Union http://www.socialistphalanx.com/t793-grunwald-patriotic-union#6238 ) They have evolved from National Socialism to National Bolshevism.

I stand corrected—not that I find National Bolshevism unobjectionable in its own right. Nevertheless, it is quite interesting to learn that they are supportive of aspects of national communism and even advocate for the formation of worker and peasant soviets. Being a member of a political band myself, perhaps I will contact them at some point—provided they're still active, of course. (Hopefully they have abandoned their belief in ridiculous Zionist conspiracy theories.)

I would actually prefer abstaining from mentioning the name of my band on the forum for now, as we have undergone an ideological metamorphosis of sorts as well. When we record some newer material, I would be more than happy to share it.

Jewish communists in Poland were pro-stalinist before 1956 and liberal after 1956. Therefor many polish communists were anti-jewish: Kazimierz Mijal, Wladyslaw Gomulka, Mieczyslaw Moczar, Albin Siwak.

There is a significant difference between Karl Marx's analysis of the Jewish Question and that typically espoused by contemporary anti-Zionists involved with nationalistic movements. One of the main distinctions is that Marx wasn't anti-Jew, he merely acknowledged that Jewish culture had developed in a particularly bourgeois direction. He explained this by applying a material analysis to the history of Judaism, which uncovered that, due to the history of Jewish involvement in proto-capitalist market activity (e.g., finance, trade, merchanting, and rentierism), the Jewish character came to epitomize bourgeois values in a manner which no other culture has. This cultural evolution also explains why Jews were capable of achieving success far in excess of what their demographics would justify within the capitalist mode of production. Marx further argued that with the ascent of socialism, the Jewish people would begin to finally assimilate with their host populations—as a consequence of the principles which characterize capitalism (and, by extension, Judaism) fading into oblivion.
Modern anti-Zionism, especially that found within nationalist circles in Europe, sometimes draws more heavily from Eugen Dühring's analysis. Dühring believed that Jewish culture was merely a reflection of the Jewish people's detestable psyche—an innate character flaw which they collectively possess. This interpretation also led to the view that the Jewish people are only capable of advancing their group interests at the detriment of other populations' interests. Thus, in the opinion of the individuals who accept this notion, the Jews can be expected to be intimately involved in the conscious (or subconscious) subversion of all manner of cultural and economic institutions within gentile nations.
Opposition to the policies practiced by the state of Israel (i.e., genuine anti-Zionism) is perfectly reasonable, and even admirable. Antisemitism veiled as anti-Zionism, however, is not. I'm not Polish, so I cannot determine whether or not SZTORM '68 follow in the Marxian or reactionary tradition with respect to the Jewish Question.
Jewish communists in Poland were pro-stalinist before 1956 and liberal after 1956. Therefor many polish communists were anti-jewish: Kazimierz Mijal, Wladyslaw Gomulka, Mieczyslaw Moczar, Albin Siwak.
Poland has a rather long history of extreme antisemitism, so with the events revolving around the Rootless Cosmopolitan campaign in the Soviet Union (which targeted Jews as a potentially counter-revolutionary element in society due to the uncovered "Doctors' Plot"), it wouldn't surprise me if antisemitic Poles within the Communist Party took it as an opportunity to target the nation's Jewish citizens for more ignoble reasons. However, I won't pass judgement as to whether focusing on Jewish activity was warranted at the time or not, as I don't know a lot about the history of the People's Republic of Poland.
What is your band? Any tracks?
I will send you a few of our tracks via private message, if you're interested.
Re: SZTORM 68
Yes, Im interested.

I know difference is but this difference isnt very big.
In original text of Marx is word "Judentum". "Judentum" means "Jewry" not "Judaism". Lenin also want total assimiliation of Jews, he was against zionism and jewish separatism (bundism).
Polish communists were anti-zionists not anti-semites. Gomulka had jewish wife, Moczar had jewish friends and so on. They were not against Jews loyal to Peoples' Poland. They were against zionists but zionists live not only in Israel.
