Buldožer

Buldožer offered humorous lyrics, sometimes on the verge of lunacy, instead of the prevailing pathos and drawn-out solo sections common in progressive rock at the time.

In early 1975 in Ljubljana, modern-day Slovenia, singer/songwriter Marko Brecelj joined the band Sedem Svetlobnih Let ("Seven Light Years"), led by guitarist and lead vocalist Boris Bele.

Although the first album, Pljuni istini u oči (Spit the into the Eyes of Truth), featuring hits like "Život to je feferon", "Ljubav na prvi krevet" and "Blues gnjus", was quickly sold, the company rejected reissuing, as the record was marked by "higher instances" of "inappropriate and controversial [material]".

Although they introduced themselves as a "typical folk-pop ensemble from Slovenia", Marko Brecelj, one of the band's frontmen, was often making unpredictable excesses like appearing on stage in a wheelchair, burning his hair and beard, and holding long tirades loaded with cynicism and irony.

Arguably the greatest excess on the record, though, was Bele's long obituary to Džoni Štulić, who supposedly burned himself as sign of protest for the Poland crisis.

Bele took over the position of chief music editor of Helidon label and managed to purchase the copyrights of their debut from PGP RTB, so the reissue came up in 1981.
