Music from EX Yugoslavia

^^I'm glad you liked it Engine. If you want to learn more about ex-Yugoslavia through art, I believe films from that period would be more helpful. They were generally of much higher quality than music overall, I feel.

Borghesia is another great band from Slovenia formed in 1982. They were also a part of a larger collective this time theatrical. Musically they were an electro-industrial band, EBM (electro body music) similar to those well known European acts such as D.A.F., Clock DVA, Front 242 etc. They were exploring themes of domination and submission, be it sexual or political. Very good band overall.

From the first album Ljubav je hladnija od smrti, 1985 (which means: Love is colder than death)

Video is a bit explicit in parts, so I don't know, maybe I should put it in spoilers

Spoiler for On:

Noćne šetnje (Night Walks)

Ni Upanja, Ni Strahu - No Hope, No Fear (1987)
