Their first album Goblini ("The Goblins") was released only on tape in small printing in April 1994. A-side of the tape included songs by Lorelai and the B-side featured new songs. A few months later Divnić went to the army and was replaced by Nedeljko "Meketa" Nedić with whom the band recorded their second album Istinite priče I deo ("True Stories Part I") also released on tape. The album featured "Ciponjka", "eLeSDi se vraca kući" ("LSD Is Coming Home") and "Za Lorenu" ("For Loreena") and five rerecorded tracks from the first album. Divnić recorded drum sections on one part of the material. Later that year the band was joined by Džukele member Leo "fon Punkerstein" Pilipović since his band took a break because band members went to the army. In May 1995, Nedić left for Cyprus and was replaced by Zoran "Fric" Jević.
During the same year the band released a live tape of their appearance at Belgrade's KST on August 31, 1995. Among their songs the band played cover versions of KUD Idijoti's "Pisma o ribaru Marinu, Mari i moru" and "Minijatura", Ramones' "Sheena Is A Punk Rocker" and "Commando" and a Serbian language version of The Clash's "I Fought The Law" (titled "Ne mogu više") which were regularly performed on concerts. The band also played Boris Novković's song "Tamara" since Jovanović was a part of Novković's band. "Ne mogu više" was dedicated to former president Slobodan Milošević and the last verse of the song is taken from the Talking Heads's track "Road To Nowhere". With the producer Aca Radosavljević the band recorded the CD U magnovenju. During the promotional tour for the album Filipović was replaced by Saša Šetka. The album featured live versions of "On je ona je", "Ima nas!", "Petra", "Vođa" and a cover of Videosex's song "Kako bih volio da si tu" ("I Wish You Were Here") renamed "Anja, volim te" ("Anja, I Love You") dedicated to Videosex vocalist Anja Rupel. During May, 1996 with the bands Svarog, Love Hunters and Ništa Ali Logopedi Goblini went on a Slovenian tour and on June got the call to perform at Zgaga rock festival at the place Hotič pri Litija near Ljubljana after which they toured Slovenia again (during autumn 1996). Live versions of their three songs were included on a various artists compilation Paket Aranžman - Svi protiv svih ("Package Deal - Everybody Against Everybody") recorded in Belgrade's KST held to celebrate the fifth birthday of the TV Politika show Paket Aranžman. In June 1997, the band toured Slovenia and performed at the second Zgaga rock festival with a new drummer, Vladimir "Cina" Cinklocki (a former Generacija Bez Budućnosti and Obojeni Program member).
A double live various artists compilation No Border Jam 4 & 5 released in 1997, featured live versions of "Ona misli da zna", "U magnovenju" and "eLeSDi se vraca kuci" recorded at Ilirska Bistrica performance in 1996. In August 1997 the band performed as an opening act for Motörhead on Budapest rock festival. Twenty recordings from thirteen cities made in Serbia and Slovenia from 1996 and 1997 were released on double CD Turneja u magnovenju '96/97. The album featured a new studio track "Punk's Not Dead" and reissue of "Istinite priče I deo". Cinklocki left the band when they were about to enter the studio in November 1998. The album "Re Contra" was finished on the day 1999 NATO bombing of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia started. This was the reason the album was not released until December 1999. In the mean-time, the band went on a nine dates Italian tour including Milano, Rome, Bologna, Torino and other cities. On January 2000 until the spring of 2001, the band toured Serbia.
After the tour the band took a break and started planning their next album, but the economic situation in the country led Branko Golubović, Alen Jovanović, Saša Šetka, Vlada Kokotović and drummer Milan Arnautović to part their ways.
In 2003 Alen Jovanović formed a band called Starfuckers featuring members from Plexus, Midgard and CBS. In 2004, Multimedia Records released Najbolje priče ("The Best Stories") a greatest hits compilation featuring live versions of songs performed at the band's peak. The album also features videos for "Voz" and "Pričaš". The later was an unreleased track recorded in 1997 which is also included on the album.
In 2006 Živka Ivković from Šabac released a book called "Od Čivija do Goblina" ("From The Machine Heads To The Goblins") with a subtitle "Illustrated Rock History Of Šabac 1963-1999-2006".
In late 2008 Milan Arnautović formed alternative rock band Eleven together with his old mates. http://www.elevenmusic.net
Daleki put
Goblini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dugo sam putovo ja
Hiljade milja, stotine granica
Gazio, rušio, palio, slavio sam
Padao, puzao, plakao, stigo do dna
Mene je daleki vodio put
Jer mene je daleki vodio put
Mene je daleki vodio put
Davno sam otišo, dugo sam putovo ja
Video gradove, prošao ludila sva
Voleo, ljubio, lagao gomilu ja
Al tebe nisam našao nikada.
Jer mene je daleki vodio put
Mene je daleki vodio put
Jer mene je daleki vodio put
Mene je daleki vodio put
Da li si otišla,
Ili si nestala?
Da li si otišla,
Ili si nestala?
Da li si otišla,
Ili si nestala?
Gazio, rušio, palio, slavio
Padao, puzao, pa ga potražio
Voleo, ljubio, lagao gomilu ja
Al tebe nisam našao nikada
Jer mene je daleki vodio put
Mene je daleki vodio put
Jer mene je daleki vodio put
Mene je daleki vodio put
Vodio put

The song "Daleki put" by Goblini is a tribute to the life of a wanderer. The lyrics describe the experiences of someone who has been on a long journey, travelling thousands of miles and across multiple borders. The singer has gone through various kinds of emotions along the way, including joy and sorrow, success and failure, love and deception. Despite everything, the wanderer has not been able to find the one thing that he truly desires, which is the person he is seeking.
The lyrics contain a repeated phrase "jer mene je daleki vodio put" which can be translated to "for it was the distant road that led me". This line suggests that the singer's journey has been dictated by fate, and that he has been powerless to do anything but follow the path that has been set out for him. The final lines of the song, which repeat the phrase "vodio put" , emphasize the idea of being led or guided on this journey.
Overall, the song "Daleki put" is a melancholic reflection on the life of a traveler, who has been shaped by the experiences of a lifetime of wandering. It explores the themes of destiny, loss, and the search for meaning, and illustrates how the journey itself can become an end in its own right.

Први и други разред гимназије, свако вече у тамо неком кафеу Гоблини и - ова песма... Учинила је да сам веровао да је свет много већи и много сјајнији него што уствари јесте. Хвала Гоблинима на томе.
