Termiti: Vjeran Pas
(Termites: Faithful Dog)

Absolutely fabulous band, artistic yet raw, mixture of great lyrics, proto-punk keyboards and great riffs.

Pekinska Patka: Ruzan, pametan i mlad
(Beijing Duck: Ugly, smart and young)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnVIzxRq9dk
The only non-English punk band that made it into the UK Top10 chart.

Elektricni orgazam: Zlatni papagaj
(Electric Orgasm: Golden parrot)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zXfZh0TdNc
Too bad that they didn't stick to their original sound, demonstrated in this song. They went to playing ballads and heart-breaking crap, which made them lose their followers.

Kud Idijoti: Ja sjecam se
(Society of Culture and Arts "Idiots": I remember)

One of the greatest leftist bands from the Balkan region. 'Nuff said.

Goblini: U Magnovenju
(Goblins: In the moment)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNFSPN8D0_w
Good punk rock band from a province in Serbia, during the 90es one of the leading bands in general.

Atheist Rap: Fatamorgana
(Atheist Rap: Mirage)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubzr_xb-KcE&feature=related
Good musicians, and, on top of all, good people. Too bad that you don't understand the words, because their lyrics are high-quality comedy and satire of both establishment during the Milosevic era and present day. Also, football. Lots of football.

Red Union: Weapon of mass destruction
(Red Union: Weapon of mass destruction)

Melodic punk rock, political activists, communists. Like a random nazi comment on YouTube says : "members of this band are communist and gay.their music is gay " It's also good. :)

Here's an immigrant band from Seattle, their music is Balkan-punk but I think it's more Bosnian flavoured. They're called Kultur Shock and they describe themselves as "a live band of blue collar immigrants".

When people say "Yugoslavia" and combine it with music, I immediately think Laibach. Sorry for my curiousity, but how is Laibach generally viewed in Yugoslavia?
