Parni Valjak ( Serbo-Croatian for steamroller ) is a Yugoslav or Croatian rock group from Zagreb , which has existed with interruptions since 1975. In contrast to many other Yugoslav bands, in the 1980s they rejected the trend of incorporating folkloric elements into their music. They gave a farewell concert in 2005 but continue to perform occasionally. In October 2010 they gave two sold out concerts in the Belgrade Arena . Her singer Aki Rahimovski released a solo album in 2007.
