''laibach'' (which is a german name for slovenia's capital city, ''ljubljana'') is a slovenian avant-garde music group associated with ''industrial'', ''martial'' & ''neo-classical'' musical styles. ''laibach'' (a.k.a. ''kraftbach'') was formed on june 1, 1980 in ''trbovlje'', slovenia, at the time of s.f.r. yugoslavia. ''laibach'' represents the music wing of the ''neue slowenische kunst'' (or ''n.s.k.'') art collective, of which it was a founding member in 1984.
the first line-up of ''laibach'' were: ''dejan knez'', ''srečko bajda'', ''andrej lupinc'', ''tomaž hostnik'' & ''bine zerko''. soon after, knez's cousin ''ivan (jani) novak'' & ''milan fras'' joined the band.
in the first period ''laibach'' were a quintet, but soon after that they declared that ''laibach'' has only four members. sometimes those four members of the band were signed with their pseudonyms: ''dachauer'', ''keller'', ''saliger'' & ''eber''.
from the mid '80s until mid '90s the four full time members were: ''dejan knez'', ''milan fras'', ''ervin markošek'' & ''ivan (jani) novak''.
from time to time, some other persons, such as ''oto rimele'' (from ''lačni franz'' band), ''nikola sekulović'', famous bass player from the ''demolition group'', & some other musicians (such as ''matej mršnik'' & ''roman dečman'') joined ''laibach''.
slovene singer & radio announcer ''anja rupel'' has also performed with the band.
as you can see - lots of people brings lots of ideas, but, anyway, those were some informations, here comes the real deal - from their entire discography i'm bringing out the most rarest as well as the most interesting release by now (even if all tracks are already well known):
01. ''inna dis ya timeya recordings presents laibach''
(e.p., compilation, c.d.-r, unofficial release, 2003)
