The band was formed in 1979, featuring Zoran Kostić "Cane", who previously worked with Kopilad and Urbana Gerila, Srdan Marković "Đile", Darko Milojković and Srđan Todorović "Žika". The band member was shortly the drummer Mladen Pajević who later played with Radost Evrope, Šine, Robna Kuća and Lutke. The band recorded only two tracks, "Dosada" and "TV u koloru", both of which appeared on the various artist compilation Artistička radna akcija. The recordings featured guest appearances by Petar i Zli Vuci members guitarist Ljuba Sedlar who played drums, and drummer Relja Obrenović. Radnička Kontrola appeared at a two-day new wave festival held in Belgrade's Tašmajdan Park during September 1981. The performance became infamous due to young Kostić who continually provoked the audience until so much commotion was created that the police decided to step in and stop the show. Kostić's behavior prompted a discussion in the newspapers on the morals and values of Yugoslav youth. The band's last live appearance took place one month later during October 1981 in Ljubljana as support act for Šarlo Akrobata. This was also Šarlo Akrobata last concert.
