Laibach

Laibach is a Slovenian avant-garde music group associated with industrial, martial, and neoclassical genres. Formed in 1980 in the mining town of Trbovlje, Slovenia, then part of the Socialist Republic of Slovenia within Yugoslavia, Laibach represents the musical branch of the Neue Slowenische Kunst (NSK) art collective, which the group co-founded in 1984.

From its early years, Laibach attracted controversy due to its use of imagery incorporating parody and pastiche of elements associated with totalitarianism, nationalism, and militarism.
