At the beginning of 1991, the band recorded the album Tko je ubio Mickey Mousea? ( Who Killed Mickey Mouse ? ), featuring unusual combination of punk rock and children’s music . However, due to the outbreak of Yugoslav Wars , the album remained unreleased until 1992. Upon album release, the songs “Volim crtane filmove” (“I Love Cartoons”), “Da nam živi rad” (“Long Live Work”) and “Wunderkind” became minor hits. During the Croatian War of Independence , for the 1992 album of patriotic songs Rock za Hrvatsku ( Rock for Croatia ), the band recorded the song “Hrvatska mora pobjediti” (“Croatia Must Win”), musically inspired by Sex Pistols ‘ ” God Save the Queen “, and “Pobjeda” (“Victory”). Both songs also appeared on the band’s maxi single dedicated to Croatian Home Guard , alongside songs “Victory” and “Croatia & Freedom”. A part of former Yugoslav public, especially in Serbia , perceived the band’s patriotic tunes as nationalistic , and contrasted the band’s support for Croatian war efforts to anti-war rock songs of the time, recorded by acts like KUD Idijoti and Rimtutituki . Simultaneously with recording “Hrvatska mora pobjediti” and “Pobjeda” with the band, Saša Novak Radulović with Piko Stančić, under the name Novak & Kopola, recorded patriotic songs “Bang – Bang! Vukovar”, “Lijepa naša” (“Our Beatufil (Homeland)”) and “Hrvatine” (“Die-Hard Croats”), also released on Rock za Hrvatsku .
