Comment: this handful of tracks is an example of a new wave of ensembles coming out from the territory of the previous Soviet Union. It is denoted with the tag Soviet wave in ambivalent way though accents may be different with regard to a certain combo. It may be more electronic, may be more kitsch/estrada pop-influenced or driven by then Soviet underground guitar bands. This case is the last opinion because of being relied upon fuzzy and slightly noisy guitar treatments on the other side obviously running in the vein of impetous new wave charm. Lyrics are in Russian and by their messages being rather pessimistic by singing about losing interest in everything or soulless robots meant in indirect sense, for example. Additionally, it is recommended listening to such precursors as Egor Letov's projects, and Yanka Djagileva.
