Another tough draw for me. In contrast to my other three nominations, Haustor don't come from the Belgrade new wave movement, but are a Croatian band. They released four albums, evolving their sound as they went along, fusing different genres and a variety of instruments. Probably in my top 10 bands of all time.

Haustor by Haustor
Drawing heavily from reggae & ska. The most "fun" of all 4, a summertime kinda album. Although towards the end it gets kinda... Dark.
Treci Svijet by Haustor
I did not like this album at first. Thought it was boring with not much going on. But my god it turned out to be a slow burner. If there's one album you need to hear it's this one.
Bi mogo da mogu Tajni Grad (live) - at least it looks live, I'm having issues with sound on my laptop right now, so I can't check. Nevermind, it's just a video
Voted for The Church. They're just about the only decent band I ever found in my mum's collection. 'The Unguarded Moment' is also one of my favourite songs by anyone ever.
No. I am actually happy for the bands you have introduced me to. That ex-Yugo post-punk is really a great find.
I need to get more Haustor because I have only got Bolero and listened to a few others on Youtube. In comparison, I have almost all the Church's discography.
