Lačni Franz was a Slovenian and Yugoslav rock band formed in Maribor in 1979. The band is widely considered one of the most prominent acts of the Yugoslav new wave scene, as well as one of the most prominent acts of the Yugoslav rock scene in general. The band was formed by vocalist Zoran Predin, guitarist Oto Rimele, bass guitarist Zoran Stjepanovič, drummer Andrej Pinterič and keyboardist Mirko Kosi. With their 1981 debut album Ikebana the band joined in on the exuberant Yugoslav new wave scene, marking the direction of their future releases with Predin's metaphorical lyrics filled with irony and dark humor, with topics ranging from love over social issues to political satire. The band's early releases gained large attention of the Yugoslav audience and media, despite complex sound and Slovene language lyrics. Their third studio album, Ne mi dihat za ovratnik, released in 1983, was the band's first major mainstream success. After the release of the commercially highly successful album Na svoji strani in 1986, Rimele left the group and was replaced by Milan Prislan. The new lineup moved towards mainstream rock sound with their late 1980s releases.
