This web site is the ultimate resource for all things "Fish Stew".
"Fish Stew", also known as "Riblja Corba" in their
native country of Yugoslavia, (now Serbia and Montenegro), have always
been at the forefront of musical revolution. Their unique blend of heavy
music and in-your-face lyrics swept the nation and captivated the minds
of audiences wherever they went.
Their harsh, vulgar, and at times very controversial lyrics resulted
in their releases being pushed back, and sometimes even cancelled, by
record labels. Their open criticism of the current regime never really
sat well with the authorities, making it even harder to get published,
and some of their songs simply being banned for several years at a time.
But then again, one would expect no less from a band whose very name
was late '70s slang for a woman's menstrual cycle. A controversial name
for a controversial band.
