Pomaranča was formed in 1979 by Miloje “Mijo” Popovič (guitar), Zlatko Magdalenič (vocals), Marko Herak (bass guitar), Tomaž Žontar (keyboards) and Franc Teropšič (drums). Popovič had previously led the band Trije Norci Tolčejo ( Three Fools Knock ), also known as TNT. Initially Pomaranča’s sound was Deep Purple – and AC/DC -influenced, but later they turned towards NWOBHM -influenced sound, maintaining blues elements. The band chose their name after Anthony Burgess ‘ novel A Clockwork Orange and Stanley Kubrick ‘s film based on the book , and the band’s future releases would feature several references to these works.
