Izvorna pjevačka grupa Srpski Talibani (Serbian Cyrillic: Изворна пјевачка група Српски Талибани, lit. "Folk Singing Group Serbian Taliban") also known as Srpski Talibani (lit. "Serbian Taliban") is the featured group on the albums, Slušajte dok vas ne uhvate za ..... and Sve što vrjedi sad u Hagu sjedi. Despite being credited as the main artists, the true performing group of the album were credited as "Ljuti bez ognjišta" (Serbian Cyrillic: "Љути без огњишта", lit. "People without a hearth") and its authors "Grupa Pravoslavnih građana" (Serbian Cyrillic: "Група Православних грађана", lit. "Group Orthodox [Christian] citizens").
Background
Srpski Talibani was an idea that was created after the September 11th attacks. The idea was to make an album in which half of its contents was about 9/11 and the other about former President of Republika Srpska Radovan Karadžić, VRS General Ratko Mladić, and former President of Yugoslavia Slobodan Milošević. Of the three who were indicted by the ICTY, two of them were still at large with Milošević being detained in April of 2001.[1] The three would be known as the "Serbian Taliban" with the true performers being credited anonymously.
In late 2001, their first album, Slušajte dok vas ne uhvate za ..... was released. Despite its sale being banned in Serbia, it would sell very well in Bosnia and Hercegovina due to the artist's name. The album would sell the most copies in Australia.[2]
In 2004, another album was released titled Sve što vjedi sad u Hagu cjedi. Controversial politician Vojislav Šešelj would be added to the cover as he too would be indicted the previous year.[3] Unlike the first album where it was published anonymously, this album was officially published by Nina Trejd. It is the most recent album to be released by the group.
