Let 3 (Flight 3) is a modern rock band from Rijeka, Croatia formed in 1987. The band frontmen are Damir "Mrle" Martinović and Zoran "Prlja" Prodanović. The band is popular in Croatia and other former Yugoslav republics due to their original approach to rock music and their obscene live performances. Sometimes provocative and vulgar lyrics and always shocking live performance with lots of nudity often polarise Croatian public.
Let 3 often change their lineup. Current lineup is:
Former band members are:
The band is known for their unprecedented, controversial and sometimes obscene performances. Their album "Nečuveno" (trans. Outrageous or Unheard of) was distributed as a CD which had nothing recorded on it - not even silence, it was just a piece of plastic. Nonetheless, it sold 350 copies. The following album "Jedina" (trans. The only one) was first recorded in only one copy which the band refused to sell or distribute. Few months after the "release" they decided to release the album in 3 slightly different versions. In 2000 they staged (fake) suicide by firing squad on Ban Jelačić Square - the central square in Zagreb, Croatian capital.
They frequently use sexuality to outrage the public. They often perform naked except for muzzles on their penises. Video for their first single "Rado ide Srbin u vojnike (Pička)" (trans. Gladly will the Serb enlist (Cunt) a play on Josip Runjanin's song "Rado Srbin ide u vojnike") for the 2005 album Bombardiranje Srbije i Čačka (trans. Bombardment of Serbia and Čačak) features extras dressed in Serbian and Albanian national costume - masturbating. On December 14, 2008, the live talk show Nedjeljom u 2 featuring two of the band members finished 9 minutes early, after the talk show host judged their behaviour as inappropriate. The show abruptly ended shortly after band members simulated the ejection of a cork from their rectums and talkshow host Aleksandar Stanković covering them with his jacket.
