Karlowy Vary, formerly known as Korowa Bar (taken from the cult novel and the Kubrick flm 'A Clockwork Orange') was an underground alternative / new wave band formed in 1981

They were based in Zagreb, Croatia and toured extensively all over the former Yugoslavia.Margita Stefanovic (aka Magi), a key member of one of the fnest Yugoslavian new wave bands: Ekatarina Velika teamed up with Tomo from KV and co- wrote two songs on La Femme, played the Oberheim OB8 synth on all tracks and designed the cover. After two failed attempts the band recorded La Femme with the help of Dragan Simonovski (drums) and Rista Ibric (violin). The album was originally released by label PGP RTB (part of Serbian National TV). It consists of eight songs including a rendition of T- Rex's 70s hit "Get It On . Although the band ofcially released only one album, La Femme is without a doubt one of the best Yugoslavian underground rock albums of the 80s. It still sounds fresh almost 40 years later. It has now been professionally re-mastered from original masters and re-pressed on limited (300 copies worldwide) sky blue 180 grms vinyl, for new (and old) generations to enjoy.
