Description
Cult band from Nis, ex-Yugoslavia. Post-Punk in the vein of Joy Division/Bauhaus.
In late 1983, Predrag Cveticanin (guitar, vocals) with Zoran Djordjevic (guitar), Branko (bass guitar), and Boban (drums) formed the band Dobri Isak. Having performed at minor local clubs, the band recorded a home made demo recording, however, the lineup dissolved during the summer of the following year. After several months Cveticanin, with bassist Miloš Miladinovic, and drummer Saša Markovic “Markiz”, reformed the band.
In the period of 1984 and 1985, the band member also became Nenad Cveticanin, Predrag’s brother, who joined the band while his own, Arnold Layne, was on hiatus. Together, the band recorded their first and only studio album Mi placemo iza tamnih naocara (We Cry Behind Sunglasses), released in 1986 by the Niš Student Cultural Center (SKC), being the first release of the Studentkult production, which released an array of musical and literary releases. The album, released on compact cassette only and printed in a limited number of 100 copies, had been distributed by the Ljubljana ŠKUC, and rapidly sold out.
The band presented their new material to the Niš audience, also performing at the 1985 Serbian Youth Festival in Knjaževac, winning the best performance award, and gaining the opportunity to appear at the Dani Novih Omladinskih Novina in Split, Croatia on Summer of the same year.
This is the 2015 edition of the record. Rare as hell and impossible to find. Sealed.
