The band developed and changed their musical style over the years, having started as progressive rock band, then turning to rock-hard rock sound and ending up as Heavy Metal band.
Although only their last two studio albums "Pakleni trio" ("Hell Trio") and "Kraljica smrti" ("Queen of Death") were truly Heavy Metal oriented, these are the albums for which Gordi are generally most remembered.
The line-up for these two albums was:
Zlatko Manojlovi? - guitar, vocal
Slobodan Svrdlan - bass, backing vocals
?edomir Petrovi? - drums, backing vocals
In 1979 the band won the first place at the international rock festival in Pozna?.
The band disbanded in 1984, after Manojlovi? released his first solo album "Zlatko".
