PEKINŠKA PATKA

Bio:
Pekinška patka Formed in Novi Sad, Serbia, in 1978, Pekinška patka are among the pioneering and most influential bands of the former Yugoslav punk scene. Originally fronted by charismatic vocalist Nebojša Čonkić Čonta, the band became notorious for their provocative lyrics, explosive performances and rebellious attitude, challenging the musical and social conventions of their time.
Their groundbreaking debut album, Plitka poezija (1980), delivered enduring punk anthems such as Bolje da nosim kratku kosu and Biti ružan, pametan i mlad. Their second album, Strah od monotonije (1981), marked a dramatic transition towards darker, atmospheric post-punk before the band disbanded.
Following several reunions, Pekinška patka remain active in 2026, featuring original members Sreten Kovačević Sreta (guitar) and Laslo Pihler Cila (drums), alongside a younger generation of musicians. Their Poderimo rock tour demonstrates that their raw energy, uncompromising spirit and lasting influence on Balkan punk remain as powerful as ever.
