Bjesovi - Svetla svetlosti

The band’s history began in the mid-eighties when two seventeen-year-olds, Zoran Marinković and Goran Marić Max, started writing for the famous Yugoslav rock magazine "Džuboks" under the names McCrywack & Max Radackow. At the same time, they began making some home demo recordings which led to the decision to form a band.
The band was formed in 1989 in Gornji Milanovac, Serbia under the name "Baader-Meinhof", and after changing the name to "Saint Gallen" and later to "China Blue", the band got the name "Bjesovi" (by a Dostoyevsky book The Possessed).

Marić and Marinković, both vocalists and lyrics/music, Predrag Dabić and Goran Filipović on guitars, Božidar Tanasković on bass and Goran Ugarčina on drums, realised their debut album "U osvit zadnjeg dana" in 1991 under the Sound Galaxy.

In 1994 the band released critically highly acclaimed untitled album (or simply "Bjesovi" as many people call it) (ITV Melomarket), which showed the band in a new, more recognizable style and opened a new chapter in the music of Serbia and whole Yugoslavia. Heavy riffs, dark ambient, pessimism and unique vocals on each track of the album proved that the band could handle with more complicated themes than the common rock topics.

Following the success of the second album, the band entered the studio to record their third studio album "Sve što vidim i sve što znam" ("All I See And All I Know") and after thirteen months the album was released under Metropolis Records .
Unlike the previous record, the band made deals with religious topics, the end of socialism and more optimistic ambient. Musically, the style did not change gradually and was still recognizable.

In 2000 Marinković reformed the band. Their 2009 album "Bolje ti" ("Better you", PGP RTS) brought them larger attention by the mainstream audience, but the band maintained their artistic orientation with the 2015 cover album "Svetla svetlosti" . The album contains 13 covers of ex-Yu rock songs and was released as a free download in the music magazine Nocturne's publishing section.

Zoran Marinković posted on his Facebook account on September 5, 2023: "The time to leave has come" alongside a black and white picture with a band sign inserted into concentric circles typical of Looney Tunes cartoons, with the caption "That's All Folks" marking the end of the group's work, without any further explanation. After some time, he explain that he had “A Quiet Message from the Sky”. But...
Bjesovi still exist.
