The sextette began working on their debut album "Gusła". The compositions were being created gradually and carefully due to the fact that the band was willing to do a concept album completely devoted to Polish Medieval culture. They went through several preproductions, they thought deeply about their extraordinary sound, lyrics and additional effects that could illustrate the presented world. Lao Che created crossover type of music, since all the members of the band had previous experience in death and doom metal and they wanted to mix up other genres as well. A lot of different styles were incorporated in their music: ambient, rock, metal, folk, reggae and the classical one too. It took them 2 years to complete the project. When everything was recorded, Sp Records released "Gusła" album in January 2002.
In May 2002 Warz left the band and he was repleaced by Krojc. Then Lao Che started playing live on stage in different places of Poland. In January 2003 another musician - Trocki - joined them to create a septet. In this line-up Lao Che began working on their second concept album: "Powstanie Warszawskie" ("The Warsaw Uprising"). The approach to composing the music was based on previous experience with Gusła and it took the band 2 years to complete another album. It was recorded in Obuh Studio (Analogue Rogalow) with the use of old equipment from the sixties and the seventies. A few microphones were even from the thirties. "Powstanie Warszawskie" was released by ARS Mundi Records in March 2005. They have released their first live DVD titled just like their sophomore record in May 2006.
Their third album "Gospel" was released on 22 February 2008 and the first single from this record is "Drogi Panie".

The lyrics to Lao Che's song "Przebicie do Śródmieścia" contain various references to Polish history and honor. The song begins with the phrase "May God lead you, Honor the Fatherland", which is followed by a reference to the Home Army, a Polish resistance movement during World War II. The repetitive lines "Ta ta rata tatata" can be seen as onomatopoeic sounds representing the tension and preparation for a mission.
The song further expresses a connection to faith and patriotism. There is a prayer-like plea to God, asking for protection and assistance, highlighting the love for both God and the homeland. The mention of "Wilczur" and the call for comrades suggest a unity within the group as they prepare to carry out their mission.
The song also includes references to specific locations and units, such as the Brühl Palace and the German troops. There are commands to return, urging comrades to regroup. The lyrics emphasize the importance of identifying fellow Poles and not shooting at them, emphasizing a sense of unity and a collective identity.
Overall, "Przebicie do Śródmieścia" can be interpreted as a tribute to the courage and unity of the Polish resistance during World War II. It reflects the importance of faith, honor, and love for the homeland in the face of adversity.

@Kaptur TV Takie nie. Te czasy, które idą będą całkiem inne, niż tamte, bo nie będziesz w stanie odróżnić wroga od swojego. A ludzie z orzełkami na czapkach, omamieni i zwiedzeni dokonywać będą ostatecznej eksterminacji tego wyjątkowego narodu, z niezachwianym przekonaniem, że robią coś dobrego.

@Kaptur TV Mam to samo. Za każdym *** razem. Płyta oddaje dramatyzm tamtych dni lepiej niż niejeden film dokumentalny.
