STRANICE NASEG VREMENA [AKA: DAB IN THE MIDDLE]

This is perhaps the best album by Smak. It includes some great songs, like the 11-minute "Ponocni lovac(Midnight hunter)/Biska 18", "Nebo je samo drum bez dna" and "Povedi me s njim" and features some of the band's best instrumental and vocal performances. Boris Arandjelovic's voice is more rasping here and less high than before, while R.M.Tocak and Tibor Levay both have some decent show offs on guitar and keyboards respectively. Zoran Milanovic is also great here, specially on "Povedi me s njim".

The title track is oddly enough sung in english, although the title of the album is in Serbian. English just doesn't fit with Yugoslav singers, but what the heck. This album is still a treat and a little broken english doesn't spoil it.
