Katarina II

While lacking the poetic edge he will be known for later, but also the song structure, this is a very good, not only debut album, but also a new wave album from former Yugoslavia. A lot of vertical lines can be drawn that run through Milan's previous band, Šarlo Akrobata, such as certain elements in the instrumentals and the vocal performance, which add that tense, anxious energy as for example in the songs "Platforme" (Platforms), "Vrt" (Garden) and "Ja Znam" (I Know), but we can also hear some moments that allude to the sound that will be present in future albums such as on the songs "Geto" (Ghetto) and "Jesen" (Autumn).

Of course, the album is not without flaws. The general presence of synthesizers on this album is put too much in front, then the song "Treba Da Se Čisti" (Needs to be Cleaned) is, in my opinion, mostly unnecessary (the title of the song masterfully describes it), and "Kad Krenem Ka" (When I Go To) is a good idea, but poorly executed.
