Kundyak Mezhie
Split, Croatia
It's time for a Croatian band at last!
In my not so humble opinion, one of the best Croatian bands in recent decade.
They still don't have an official studio album although they exist almost 10 years. Today's lineup is making music since 2009. They have released one live album which sounds and feels like a studio one:

I discovered them mostly by accident over the Internet around 2010. While I was carefully listening to the songs I immediately heard there was something really special going on here. Their playing is very natural and organic.
Rhythm section is tight and groovy while two guitars are combined to give wonderful melodic lines. Lead singer Branko also functions as a lead guitar for the most part and this is also one interesting aspect of Kundyak.
I would definitely decribe their sound as vintage influenced if not totally vintage. This is mainly so because of Branko's voice color and style.
When we combine his singing with original instrumental ideas we get Kundyak.
Their songs are usually around 6-7 minutes long and should be no reason for concern so just relax and enjoy...
