[edit] Biography

Partibrejkers were formed in 1982 and released their debut album in 1985 in a two guitars + drums + vocal set (no bass), produced by Koja of Disciplina kičme. Their influences are diverse, such as the Stooges, MC5, early Rolling Stones or New York Dolls - all spiced up with a healthy dose of blues, rhythm-and-blues, rockabilly and classic rocknroll. To-date they have experienced numerous line-up changes. The mainstay of the band are Zoran "Cane" Kostić (vocals) and Nebojša "Anton" Antonijević (guitar). They have received steady critical acclaim over the years and are well received by audiences all over former Yugoslavia, not necessarily only because of their music, but also due to their anti-war activism with the Rimtutituki project.
