Laibach

Slovenian post-industrial band formed in 1980 in the town of Trbovlje, Slovenia, at the time when Slovenia was one of the six republics within the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. Laibach is the German name for Slovenia's capital city Ljubljana. Initially one of the founders of martial industrial music, Laibach changed their musical direction in later years to a more crossover style inspired by rock, pop and techno or dance influences. In 2015 Laibach played two shows in North Korea, making the press to write that they were the first 'Western' band to perform there, a claim which was later disputed by suggestions that it was unfounded.
