Seobe (trans. Migrations) is the third studio album by Serbian and Yugoslav hard rock band Kerber, released in 1986.
Following the success of their first two albums, Kerber signed for Belgrade-based PGP-RTB, one of two biggest Yugoslav labels, and recorded their third studio album, Seobe. [1] The album was recorded in PGP-RTB Studio V and produced by composer and former Korni Grupa leader Kornelije Kovač. [1] It was the band's first album recorded with drummer Dragoljub Đuričić, who came in as the replacement for Boban Đorđević (who was himself brought in to replace the band's original drummer, Zoran Stamenković, with whom the band recorded their first two albums). [1]
Unlike the band's previous album, which featured only two songs with lyrics written by lyricist Duško Arsenijević, most of the songs on Seobe featured lyrics written by him, with the song "Kad ljubav izda" ("When Love Betrays") featuring a quotation from Pero Zubac's poem "Mostar Rains", [1] and the lyrics for the title track being inspired by 1980s emigrations of Serbs from Kosovo. [2] [3] Beside Arsenijević's lyrics, the album featured two songs with lyrics written by Riblja Čorba frotman Bora Đorđević and two songs with lyrics written by Riblja Čorba guitarist Nikola Čuturilo. [1] Đorđević also sung lead vocals in the song "Čovek od meda" ("Man Made of Honey") together with Kerber frontman Goran Šepa. [1]
All music is composed by Kerber.
