Slovenian band active in 1978-1981, rock with some funk sound, they sounded kind of progressive to me.













Guitarist also made a music video of an unreleased song.

This band has been 'mentioned in dispatches' a few times in topics concerning Yugoslavian/East European and ex-Yu prog as possibly being one to add, but it seems that up to yet it has never happened. These links below will take you to the 7 threads that I found where they were mentioned:
 
These posts were in the "Prog Recommendations/Featured albums" & "Prog Bands, Artists and Genres Appreciation" forums rather than this one though.
 
Seems like the concensus was that they should at least be considered for inclusion here - these samples sound reasonably proggy to my admittedly untrained ear...maybe worth passing to eclectic?

^ I bet you will. When I saw the title, I immediately recognized southern Slav language family, which is your turf.  
There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless,"

Not at all, Balkan prog specialists are Sead, Slava, Andrea Cortese, Angel... ;)

Interesting band, the second sample is pure Eclectic prog, but the rest is accessible, groovy '70s art rock (with the exception of the sixth sample, which has a Gentle Giant feel). They could stand a chance for Crossover, I'll notify the team.

Here are some more:







Also I think they might be active now in some format, since there are a few music videos that are of newer date. The sound is more modern though, as is this first one a new version of an old song.

Hello, again thanks for interesting suggestion. I think they released only one album, which I have not thoroughly listened. Again, I will check it and return here with my opinion. Cheers!

Added to crossover, including their 2005 "reunion" album which was somehow overlooked by any of the previous suggesters. Not just a few new songs as was mentioned, but a new complete, full length album ;-)

Clap

I didn't know about the reunion album, but looking at the track listing it has some songs that I already put here in the first post like that weird "Mu" video, not knowing they belong to an album,and it's on amazon as well.
