Begnagrad (album)

Begnagrad is the second studio album by the Slovenian industrial music band Laibach. It was released in 1988.

The album's title, "Begnagrad," refers to an imagined, idealized city-state, a recurrent theme in Laibach's work. The album explores themes of totalitarianism, mythology, and historical revisionism, typical of Laibach's artistic approach.

Musically, Begnagrad expands upon the industrial soundscapes of their previous work, incorporating more orchestral arrangements and operatic vocals, further cementing Laibach's unique blend of martial industrial, avant-garde, and Neue Slowenische Kunst aesthetics. The album features a mix of original compositions and interpretations of classical pieces.
