NULA

Nula is a hardcore punk band from Šibenik, Croatia, notable within the early Croatian underground scene. They recorded their influential material in the early 1990s under difficult wartime conditions, performing and recording “literally underground.”

In late 1993, they recorded what became their second demo, released in early 1994 on cassette as the album Pobjedimo laž, featuring uncompromising anti-war and anti-establishment messages that reflected the frustration of a generation during the Croatian War of Independence era. The original cassette was distributed through DIY channels and later reissued in 1997 on the independent label Humanita Nova, and it has seen licensed releases in countries such as the Czech Republic, Poland and Japan.

In 2019, exactly 25 years after its first appearance, Nula launched a crowdfunding campaign to reissue Pobjedimo laž on vinyl, CD and digital formats, complete with original artwork and lyrics, celebrating the album’s legacy in Croatian punk history.

The band’s raw, DIY ethos and fierce sound mark them as a key part of Croatia’s hardcore punk heritage, connected deeply to the underground scene of the 1990s.
