Idoli [The Idols] were a new wave band from Belgrade, Serbia. They are considered to be one of the greatest and most influential Yugoslav rock bands and their 1982. album ''Odbrana i poslednji dani'' was voted by the critics as the greatest Yugoslav rock album
The euphoria Idoli have made with their single "Maljčiki/Retko te viđam sa devojkama" resulted a great expectation on the next release. The band entered the studio in April 1981. Photographs from the recording sessions were released in newspapers and magazines. The band recorded six songs, including two cover versions. The whole material was released on a 12" self-titled EP. The band covered Chuck Berry's hit “Come On” but with lyrics in Serbo‐Croatian entitled "Hajde!".
The record design and production was done by Ivan"Piko"Stančić and the cover was chosen to be "The Red Nude" act by Amedeo Modigliani. Guest appearances featured Film members Malden Juričić (also known as Max Wilson) who made guest appearance playing harmonica and Jurij Novoselić (also known as Kuzma Videosex) who played organ.

What to say... Favorite band from my hometown ''Rock City'' Belgrade, they kick-started New Wave in my country and they even went to my high-school. They use parody and camp on Soc-Realism [The promotional video for single ''Maljčiki'' was banned on national television and some radio stations after the Soviet embassy filed a complaint], gay fetish [''Retko te vidam sa devojkama'' (I rarely see you with girls)], religion and traditionalism. One of those bands that introduced me to R'n'R in my early teens. Check 'em out!
