Music like Darkwood

Darkwood Dub was an alternative rock band from Belgrade, Serbia, which, formed in 1988, gradually grew to prominence on the Serbian rock scene. Their music is characterized by gentle bass lines, a mixture of live drumming and electronic percussion, along with frequent use of slide guitar, synthesizers and samplers. The succinct and introspective lyrics are also a prominent feature, sung with offbeat vocals of Dejan Vučetić. Apart from 7 official albums, the band participated in several joint projects, composed scores for several films and theatre plays. They also showed a political streak by participating in many pro-democracy projects.

In 2009, the band was nominated for the Best Regional Act at the MTV European Awards. Towards the end of their existence, Darkwood Dub were one of the top bands of the Serbian rock scene, and for the 10 years preceding their break-up, they toured regularly throughout former Yugoslav countries, Austria, Poland, Slovakia and Hungary.
