Former East Rodeo and Goribor Members Release New Album “Raj na zemlji” Former members of the Croatian rock bands East Rodeo and Goribor – Alen and Nenad Sinkauz and Aleksandar Stojković – have released a new album under the group name Još gori. The record, titled Raj na zemlji, was issued earlier this year and has already attracted attention for its blend of experimental instrumentation and introspective lyrics. The collaboration dates back to the early 2000s. The Sinkauz brothers, who began their careers with East Rodeo, were key figures in the new Croatian rock scene. Their first joint project beyond Goribor’s second album Evo je banja was the recital Malo je dovoljno at the Zagreb Theatre &TD. After that, the brothers pursued a variety of projects: they performed on stage before the multimedia evening Ho‑Ruk! Hop‑Jan! at Kinoteci, worked with Ivan Sajko on Rose is a rose is a rose at ZKM, collaborated with Saša Božić on Dezerter, and joined Ksenija Zec in Zagrljajima. They also improvised while visual artist Danijel Žeželj created drawings in the SC Gallery. The Sinkauz brothers have composed music for roughly forty films, earning awards at the Pula Film Festival and the Croatian Film Days. Alen Sinkauz now heads the international Pula AudioArt festival, a platform that emphasizes improvisation – a concept that also underpins the new album. Stojković, who moved to Pula after his time with Goribor, co‑produced Raj na zemlji with the Sinkauz brothers. The album’s second track, “Raj na zemlji” (Kopaton), opens with the line “Ne započinji ništa, sad nije pravo vreme” (“Don’t start anything, it’s not the right time”) and transitions into “Nešto se promenilo” (“Something has changed”). The title track, “Raj na zemlji, poslednja minuta” (“Paradise on Earth, last minute”), suggests that nothing has truly changed, offering a realistic perspective on personal and interpersonal relationships and hinting at an impending conclusion. Musically, the record is a collection of suggestive vignettes. Stojković’s voice is accompanied by contrabass, ambient electric guitars, electronic treatments, and hypnotic rhythms. Critics have compared the sound to Marc Ribot’s collaborations with David Byrne and to Talking Heads’ “Listening Wind” from the album Remain in Light. While the album’s title could have been Kraj na zemlji (“End on Earth”), the record is described as “the album of the year” by those who have left a lasting legacy. It offers a more bearable vision of an ending, blending experimental soundscapes with emotionally resonant songwriting. Article source: Večernji List | Image credit: Večernji List
