Vatreni Poljubac is a hard rock and heavy metal band, originally formed in 1977 in Sarajevo, SR Bosnia and Herzegovina, SFR Yugoslavia, and since 1998 based in Belgrade, Serbia. Formed and led by vocalist, guitarist and songwriter Milić Vukašinović, Vatreni Poljubac was one of the most notable acts of the Yugoslav hard rock and heavy metal scene. Formed in October 1977, after the end of Vukašinović's one-year stint as the drummer for Bijelo Dugme, the original lineup of Vatreni Poljubac consisted of Vukašinović, bass guitarist Shefqet Hoxha and drummer Perica Stojanović. The band's initial releases, the single "Doktor za rock and roll" and the album Oh, što te volim, joj!, were well received by the audience and presented the band with their hard rock and heavy metal sound with folk influences. With their following releases the band maintained a loyal fanbase, although Vukašinović was occasionally criticized for his use of folk motifs in the band's songs by a part of Yugoslav music press, which compared some of Vatreni Poljubac songs with the Yugoslav "newly composed folk music".
