Music from Russia (electronic, artist, song, better)
Заточка - Zatochka
Style: country rap |
Yorsh (Йорш)
(caver Dropkick Murphys - "Rose Tattoo") |
Gamazda (Alexandra Kuznetsova), piano cavers
|
Leningrad (Frontman Sergey Shnurov). Style: ska punk, pop, rock. Shnurov is one of the best Russian poets now (many may not like his lyrics because of the style, but technically it is at the level of Vysotsky). In the mid and late 2010s, he worked with top directors for his songs.

Band THEODOR BASTARD (Alexander Starostin and Eva Veva). Style: ethnic music, ethno-electronica, trip-hop, darkwave, neo-folk.

(cover Egor Letov) |
Band Melnitsa. Natalia O'Shea (Helavisa). The Queen and Legend of Russian folk-rock. The band has had a huge influence on the development of Russian music over the past 25 years. I think the number of bands that were formed with the words "like Melnitsa, but heavier sounding" is in the tense, if not hundreds. I still remember falling in love with these songs 20 years ago, when I first heard them from a speaker rewound with electrical tape, connected to an old Pentium I computer.
and countless covers |
ALBATROSS Style: Rap, Runglish Hip-Hop
|
Shortparis. Style: post-pop, pop-noir, avant-pop, experimental.
|
Скоты (Cattle). Alternative rock, pop punk, ska punk.
|
Los Chotatamos. I haven't found the name of this style. Officially, it's rock. But it's also American country music in Russian. And that's with the tools at hand.
|
A couple of songs that have been used in movies and TV series.
|
The Shklovsky Band (Mikhail Mestetsky). Style: art rock.
|
Band Киньте Копеечку ("Throw a penny").

A few pop-rock songs from little-known artists that I liked recently.
