'''Divlje Jagode''' ({{Lit|Wild Strawberries}}) is a [[Bosnia and Herzegovina|Bosnian]] and former Yugoslavian [[hard rock]]{{\}}[[Heavy metal music|heavy metal]] band, formed in 1977. The band is widely considered to be regional pioneers of the heavy metal genre and one of the most popular and enduring icons of rock music in [[Bosnia and Herzegovina]] and [[former Yugoslavia]]. They have endured many lineup changes over the years, remained active in the music industry and retained their popularity throughout the years. In 40 years since its founding, the band have released 13 studio albums, many singles, compilation albums, and sold around 4 million records.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://jugoton.rs/izvodjac/divlje-jagode/#1519128481049-39d19f40-80d71427-fe07a11b-9cb0 |title=Divlje jagode - Jugoton |access-date=7 November 2019
==Biography==
===1970s: Formation and initial success===
Divlje Jagode were formed in 1977 in [[
===1980–1986: Continued success and breakthrough===
In 1980, Divlje Jagode continued their activity with the new lineup: Janković, Lipovača, drummer Nasko Budimlić and bass guitarist, then relatively unknown, [[Alen Islamović]]. Unsatisfied by their previous record label's work in promotion of their first album, Lipovača makes a decision to move to [[Sarajevo]], and to local major record label, [[Diskoton]]. With the new lineup, the band recorded their second album, entitled ''Stakleni Hotel'' ("Glass Hotel"), which marked their complete shift towards [[Heavy metal music|heavy metal]]. The album was recorded in [[Belgrade]], and released through Diskoton in February
In 1982, lead singer Ante Janković left the band. He decided to start a career as a solo artist, and was dissatisfied with the band's direction toward a much heavier sound. They parted ways amicably and Janković would be seen in following years many times as a frequent collaborator and guest musician, on several occasions. In September 1983, Divlje Jagode released their third studio album ''[[Motori]]'' ("Motorcycles"), and first with
After finishing their tour, the band starts working on their follow-up album. Again, the place and the recording studio are the same as with the latest, and November 1983 marks the release of the album ''[[Čarobnjaci]]'' ("Wizards"). Lipovača was in charge with production, music and some writing, while Islamović wrote the majority of songs. The album didn't achieve the same popularity as ''Motori'', but was received well enough, with the title track and song "Metalni radnici" singled out. During the album's supporting tour Islamović receives an invitation from [[Goran Bregović]] to join
By the end of the year, Divlje Jagode got another musician within their ranks. It was bass guitarist Zlatan Ćehić "Ćeha". This would mean that Islamović will concentrate only on vocals, and with this lineup, the band start work on their next studio album. Recording and mixing were done in studios "RTV Sarajevo" in Sarajevo, and "Music Park Studios" in [[Bad Homburg vor der Höhe]], as was the case with their previous releases. In March 1985, again through Diskoton, studio album entitled ''Vatra'' ("Fire"), was released. Music and composing were done by Lipovača, while Islamović and Slobodan Đurašović did the writing. The album was produced again by Theo Werdin, who also wrote the song "Touch Me Little Girl", the only song on the record wrote and performed in the English language. Although with a bit less commercial success than their previous efforts, the album was well-received, with several hit songs like "Ciganka", "Let na drugi svijet", "Divljakuša, and "Moja si".

In 1986, they started recording an [[English language]] album in the studio "Matrix" in London, with producer Keith Woolvin. Eight of their old songs were re-recorded with English language lyrics and the album featured two new songs, "Fire on the Water" and "Wild Boys". In February, Divlje Jagode released a single "Shayla" and had performed in a number of English clubs. They also had a live show in the famous London club "Marquee Club". At the attendance, among others, were world-renowned keyboard players [[Don Airey]] and [[Keith Emerson]]. Airey, who at the time was a member of British hard rock band, [[Whitesnake]], was later featured as a guest musician on their upcoming album. Shortly after, the band manager came to Lipovača, for a possibility of him joining Whitesnake, as the band were in a search for a second guitar player at the time. Lipovača stated later in an interview, that it was Don Airey the one who suggested this to their manager. Being already committed to present obligations, Lipovača didn't proceed with the offer and decided to stay, focusing on his current band's career.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://arhiva.nedeljnik.rs/nedeljnik/portalnews/frontmen-benda-divlje-jagode-zasto-sam-odbio-whitesnake/|title=Frontmen benda Divlje jagode: Zašto sam odbio Whitesnake|website=Arhiva.nedeljnik.rs|access-date=5 October 2020}}</ref>
However, after this time, things would start to go in an unfavourable direction for the band. Release of their album was constantly delayed by the record company, and as time passed by, tensions and differences between the band members would start to show. Unsure of their career in England, constant album release delays, and the fact that the band wasn't making enough profit,
In the beginning of 1987, Lipovača, supported by Zlatan Ćehić, decided to put together another lineup. Soon after, they started looking for a new vocalist. The album ''Wild Strawberries'' was finally released in May 1987, by [[Logo Records]], almost a year and a half since its recording, but the band did not have any live performances following the release, and the album itself was proved unsuccessful. ''Wild Strawberries'' was released in Sweden, Germany, Italy and Netherlands. In summer, the band's lineup is finally filled up by their new vocalist [[Mladen Vojičić Tifa|Mladen Vojičić "Tifa"]], the former Bijelo Dugme singer (who Islamović replaced). Also, among new band members were drummer Edin Šehović (a former "Country Carma", "Bandoleros" and "Tusk" member) and keyboardist Vladimir Podany (a former "Armija B" member). This lineup started recording their next album, produced by Peter Hinton, known for his collaboration with British heavy metal band [[Saxon (band)|Saxon]]. The album, entitled ''Konji'' ("Horses") was released in the beginning of 1988. It contained several well-received songs, as the title track and re-recorded version of the song "Divlje Jagode", originally released on the band's first album. First single was an instrumental cover of [[Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart]]'s ''[[Piano Sonata No. 11 (Mozart)|Turkish March]]'' and the biggest hit was ballad "Zauvjek tvoj", which remained so until today.

In 2006, Galić returns to Divlje Jagode, along with long-time member, bass player Zlatan Ćehić. In April, they release a new single, "Piramida". The same year they release a "box set" collection, containing all studio albums released so far in their career, along with the newest single "Piramida" and Lipovača's solo album ''Magic Love''. In spring 2007, they released another single, re-recorded version of song "Zvijezda sjevera", sung by Ćehić, along with music video. During the same year, the band announced that they will start working on a follow-up studio album. In July, together with Galić's previous band "Opća Opasnost", they play as an opening act at [[Whitesnake]] concert in [[Osijek]]. Next year in 2008, Galić left the band; this time it was so he could return to recently reunited "Opća Opasnost". In Divlje Jagode then again returns Ante Janković as a main vocalist.
During next several years, Divlje Jagode mainly continue touring across the region, playing local festivals and concerts, and also have several international bouts. Within this time, the band members change constantly, without any permanent and definitive lineup. Many previous band members join on various occasions at live performances, while work on the next studio album is still in progress. On 25 January
After 10 years since the latest, Divlje Jagode released a new studio album, entitled ''Biodinamička Ljubav'' ("Biodynamic Love") in December 2013.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://balkanrock.com/vesti/vesti-iz-regiona/divlje-jagode-objavile-novi-album-biodinamicka-ljubav/|title=Divlje Jagode objavile novi album "Biodinamička ljubav" |website=Balkanrock.com|date=20 December 2013|access-date=5 October 2020}}</ref> The album was released through Croatia Records and features 11 songs. The line-up consisted of Lipovača (guitars, backing vocals), Livio Berak (vocals, guitar), Damjan Deurić (keyboards), Nasko Budimlić (drums) and András Ispán (bass). Among several guest musicians, were Žanil "Žak" Tataj (vocals), Ivana Peters (vocals), Vladimir Kmoniček (vocals), Zlatan Ćehić (bass) and [[Vlatka Pokos]] (backing vocals).
