PSIHOMODO POP

Product Description

Psihomodo Pop is a Croatian pop punk group. The band was formed in 1983 in Zagreb & has since achieved a somewhat cult following across the area of former Yugoslavia.

Formed from the remnants of a band called Neron, Psihomodo Pop initially gained fame across former Yugoslavia in 1988 after the release of their debut album Godina zmaja (The Year of the Dragon). Nema nje was released as a single from the album & became a success due to the music video for the song being played by MTV. This gave Psihomodo Pop the distinction as the first Yugoslavian music act to have their music played on a major music television network.

In 1990 the band released their second studio album Sexy magazin & set out on a relatively successful three month long tour across the former Soviet Union. That same year, for concerts in Ljubljana & Zagreb, the band was chosen as the opening act for The Ramones, a band that Psihomodo Pop cited as both a musical act they admire the most as well as their biggest influence.

Late 1990 saw Psihomodo Pop abandon their plans for an extended tour in support of their new album due to the outbreak of hostilities leading up to the Croatian War of Independence. The band joined Hrvatski Band Aid (Croatian Band Aid), a project composed of many of Croatia's top music acts, to help create the patriotic song Moja Domovina (My Homeland) condemning the war.

After the war & the breakup of Yugoslavia, the band continued their success in Croatia by releasing several commercially & critically acclaimed albums such as Srebrne svinje (Silver Pigs), which spawned the Porin award winning single Starfucker. In 2000, the band released Debakl (Debacle) which won another Porin, this time for Best Rock Album of the Year.

The band's eighth & the most recent studio album is Jeee! Jeee! Jeee!, released in 2009.
