To do a silly internet celebration, for the 4000th post (yay me), here are some of my favourite songs from a region whose music might not be well-known in the world, but has produced some of the most riveting music to these ears. The ex-Yugoslav music scene has been going on for decades - a huge rock music scene in countries like Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia and Slovenia that never unfortunately managed to gain even a tenth of popularity (and for some bands I'm talking gigs that sometimes featured 50,000 to 100,000 people) that was in the region, due to language barriers, volatile political situations in the 90s, commercial reasons and so on.
So, try out some of the music I grew up with! I'd be sceptical if I were you as well, but some of you might be pleasantly surprised. There are four bands I'll start with (Majke, Let 3, EKV, Električni orgazam), 2 songs from each of those - keep in mind each of them has a different, very specific sound, so don't give up if you don't like the first band, heh. Enjoy! This could be fun. Or not.
Oh, and if you're only used to English vocals/lyrics and have a dislike for Croatian and Serbian language being used in the songs, I'd give up right away. But I think this forum (mostly) keeps an open mind!
