(It's hard for me to understand the Serbian host in certain spots, I'm not used to the Serbian accent and certain words, so I'll do what i can.)

Belgrade, Serbia - TV show "The First Plan"

Host: Of all the rock bands from the former Yugoslavia, in addition to the Slovenian band Laibach and the Novi Sad band Obojni Program (? Military Program?) and a few others, the group the Bambi Molesters, who hail from Croatia, have had a very respectable international musical career. We talked with them after their show in the Belgrade club Living Room.

Q: Is there some kind of ??? that exists right now?

Lada: Actually, yes. We are currently working on a new album, which will be out in January. We took two years off from playing live, but now we're slowly getting back into it. One reason is that we missed playing live, and the other reason is a pragmatic one that we wanted to try out the new material in front of a live audience before we go in the studio to record it, which we're doing next week.

Q: It's interesting how instrumental bands come up with the names for the songs. What .... ???

Lada: Yes, it's difficult. For some of the songs we're working on right now, we still don't have names, maybe just working titles. But it's the atmosphere of the song that dictates the name.

Q: Who's primarily in charge of writing the music?

Dalibor: There's no person that's 'in charge', that has an obligation or an assigned role. I've done most of it, and Dinko and I have worked on some songs together, also, and now on some songs the whole band is working together. There isn't someone that's in charge in particular. It happened that I did most of the work.

Q: It's difficult for the band's from this region to have an international career. You and a few other bands have succeeded at it. How did you do it?

Lada: I think it's due to first, of course, the quality, second, persistence, and then only third, the fact that we don't have vocals. Bands that want to break through internationally have to write lyrics in English, which is not their mother tongue and therefore they may not be very good at it. We didn't have that problem, not necessarily by design, but simply by writing instrumental music. The few vocals we do are all covers that fit into this whole garage, surf, sixties thing we do.

Q: How has it been working with foreign musicians, especially the bigger names?

Dalibor: It's not so easy to define a bigger name. We have worked with Peter Buck of REM and Scott McCaughey, who's worked with REM. We've also worked with Chris Eckman. He's producing our new album. Chris plays with Green On Red. We know a few of those people, so we use them when we think they would fit into a song, play a part that would suit their style. It's not necessary that a person be a big name from a big band. It was just a chance that we got to know the REM guys a bit.

Q: Tell me about the new album.

Dalibor: The first part has been recorded, and we're going to finish the second part next week. It'll be mixed in December, and released in January, on Dancing Bear in Croatia, and on the German label Glitter House in the rest of Europe. There'll be everything on the album, from garage to... a bit of symphonic orchestra. So, there'll be everything! We're really excited about it. We'll release the album, we'll promote it heavily and maybe we can come back to Belgrade then.

Lada: Or to Novi Sad...

Dalibor: Or to Novi Sad, if someone invites us.

Lada: We haven't played there yet.

Dalibor: But we would...

Lada: Yes, we would.

Nice, thanks

looks so much better than the many Jpeg cd covers that have been coming out lately.
