Muzika Poludelih (Serbian Cyrillic: Музика Полуделих; trans. Madmen Music) is an oi!/hardcore punk band from Vrbas, Serbia.

Oi! is a subgenre of punk rock that originated in the United Kingdom in the late 1970s. The music and its associated subculture had the goal of bringing together punks, skinheads, and other working-class youth. The movement was partly a response to the perception that many participants in the early punk rock scene were, in the words of The Business guitarist Steve Kent, "trendy university people using long words, trying to be artistic...and losing touch."

Hardcore punk Subgenre of punk rock

Hardcore punk is a punk rock music genre and subculture that originated in the late 1970s. It is generally faster, harder, and more aggressive than other forms of punk rock. Its roots can be traced to earlier punk scenes in San Francisco and Southern California which arose as a reaction against the still predominant hippie cultural climate of the time. It was also inspired by New York punk rock and early proto-punk. New York punk had a harder-edged sound than its San Francisco counterpart, featuring anti-art expressions of masculine anger, energy, and subversive humor. Hardcore punk generally disavows commercialism, the established music industry and "anything similar to the characteristics of mainstream rock" and often addresses social and political topics with "confrontational, politically-charged lyrics."

History

The band was formed in 1997, releasing their debut album Definicija bolesti (The Definition of the Disease) during the same year through the independent record label ITMM. Unlike the debut album, which featured lyrics in Serbian language, their second studio album My Unity, released by One Records in 2003, featured lyrics in English language, which was the case with all of their following releases. [1] Both the debut and the second album featured the guest appearance by the famous Serbian writer and journalist Raša Popov, who recorded spoken word parts on several tracks. [2] Beside the material written by the band, My Unity featured a cover version of the Blitz single "New Age". [3] After the album release, the band went on a promotional tour, which, beside Serbia, included performances in Romania and Hungary. [4]
