The inspiration for the name the came from the Italian comic book Zagor, whose titular character lives in the forest named Darkwood. The band was formed in autumn of 1988, originally with an intention of playing a combination of reggae and noise music, in the lineup consisting of two drummers (playing the same drum kit), two bassists, a vocalist and a rhythm machine.

The band cooperated with a number of musicians-most notably prominent jazz musicians Vasil Hadžimanov and Bisera Veletanlić-and composed scores for several films and theatre plays. It was characterized by a mixture of live drumming and electronic percussion with frequent use of slide guitar, synthesizers and samplers and succinct and introspective lyrics, sung with offbeat vocals of Dejan Vučetić.
