Bezobrazno Zeleno (Serbian Cyrillic: Безобразно Зелено, trans. "Rude Green") were a former Yugoslav new wave / pop rock band from Belgrade. The band was notable as the participant of the "Artistička radna akcija" project as well as for their later works.

History

1980 - 1984

The band was formed in 1980 by Bojan Vasić (bass guitar), Vojislav "Beške" Bešić (guitar, vocals), Dragoljub "Điđi" Spasić (drums) and Katarina Benedetić (vocals). It got the name as a rebellious reaction to the phrase commonly used for the young, being "green". The band was the participant of the "Artistička radna akcija" compilation, featuring the second generation of new wave bands in Belgrade, with the tracks "Bežim niz ulicu" and "Beograd".

Due to the Bešić and Spasić's departure to the Yugoslav People's Army, former Radnička Kontrola drummer Srđan "Žika" Todorović and guitarists Zoran Ilić and Branislav "Banana" Petrović (from Pasta ZZ) joined the band. The band member was also Zoran Janić who later joined the band Vrele Usne.

The band appeared on the first Ventilator Demo Top 10 show in February 1983 with the song "Običaji". Their debut album, "1", was produced by Momčilo Bajagić Bajaga in 1983 and featured "Bežim niz ulicu", hit ballad "Gibaj se" and "Jutro", a cover of the Butik song and composed by Nebojša "Anton" Antonijević. The album ought to have included the song "Long live moja Srbijo" ("Long Live My Serbia") which was denied by the PGP RTB records. The band also had to change the lyrics for the track "Momci sa juga" ("The Boys from the South"). Roze Poze vocalist Vlada Milačić appeared on the album as guest.

In spring 1984, the band played in Dom Omladine in Belgrade as the opening act for Momčilo Bajagić Bajaga who presented his first solo album "Pozitivna geografija". Soon after, the group disbanded. Petrović joined Električni Orgazam, Todorović started an acting career and played with Disciplina Kičme, Ekatarina Velika and Kazna Za Uši. Vasić started working as a mailman.

1988 - 1991

In 1988, Vasić and Ilić reformed the band with Spasić on drums, former Šlogirani Karanfil vocalist Saša "Džeger" Komadinović and guitarist Ivan Kljajić. Together they recorded their comeback record "Neonske bajke" ("Neon Fairytales"). The songs were written by Vasić and Ilić, backing vocals were done by Dejan Cukić and the album was produced by Bajaga i Instruktori bassist Miroslav "Cvele" Cvetković. Beside their own songs, cover versions of Frank Zappa's "Boby Brown" and The Sweet hit "Ballroom Blitz" (entitled "Divlje dete") appeared on the album. The album also featured Vasić's song "Diraš me", which later appeared on Cukić's solo album "Spori ritam", and Ilić's theme "Deca sa meseca", which later appeared on Riblja Čorba album "Koza nostra" as "Ja je gledam kako spava".

In 1991 the band split up as Komadinović moved to South Africa. Vasić followed him and together they formed a club cover band. In 1994 Vasić returned to Yugoslavia and formed the band Kurajberi, featuring Ekatarina Velika keyboard player Margita Stefanović, former Van Gogh vocalist Goran Milisavljević and his former bandmates, guitarist Ivan Kljajić and drummer Dragoljub Spasić. They performed cover versions of popular foreign and Yugoslav rock songs. Petrović also performed with the band and recorded. They disbanded in 1995 when Vasić stopped performing and started working as a designer and tattoo master. He also wrote the lyrics for Dejan Cukić and the band Njujork. Ilić became the member of Riblja Čorba in 1989 and in 1992 formed Babe with Bajaga i Instruktori member Žika Milenković and Električni Orgazam member Goran Čavajda. Bešić moved to New York where he became the member of the band LFAnt. Kljajić started working as a producer and joined Ana Stanić's backing band.
