Might as well put a disclaimer here too just in case there are any miscommunications, I do not support Russia, or Communism, or anything like that, I appreciate art! And history, I aint no filthy commie… you might just be red yourself thinking like that, you son of a bitch! God Bless Amurica…

Chosen Topic: Soviet/Russian Post Punk/Rock (mostly Russian)

I cant tell you how much I actually love this little sub genre, its music that actually sounds like “Post Punk” instead of whatever the hell else gets put under that label, Post Punk generally could be like three different genres lets be real, but thats a rant for another time….
(Also I feel like this part of the genre gets a lot of needless shade, quite unfortunate)

I will organize some of the songs by band! Others by time period! Starting with my favorite! Kino, Gruppa Kino.
(! All of these are in foreign languages !)
(Subtitles provided!)

Kино / Kino
CHANGES!!!/ПЕРЕМЕН!!!

–
Close the Door Behind Me, Im Leaving
(Piano 🔥🔥🔥🔥)
–
A Place To Step Forward

–
Gruppa Krovi / Blood Type

–
Chernikovskaya Hata / Черниковская Хата
(My second favorite, name is a mouthful so I call em Cherikov for short, Im currently the only monthly listener of this band on Spotify lmao, rip, they had good potential but just don’t really exist anymore… )
–
Show’s Over

–
Okay due to how obscure this band really is I can only find one song with subtitles that isn’t some Doomer bullcrap, I REFUSE to post any of that here, so sorry.

EAST GERMAN PROPAGANDA JUMPSCARE!
IFA Wartburg – The Free German Youth
(“For Democracy” Shut up you communist pig, you the last to be talkin bout democracy with AN AMERICAN IN THE ROOM)

Got that Murican within me actin up.
–
Rostov – Lottey / Лотерея

Some Soviet Afghan music here, some of these songs get real depressing when you actually realize what the lyrics mean…

–

EVAKU Arsenal – A Light Flashes in the Dark
(Personal favorite)

Sallowing Dust (Afghan) / Пыль Глотаю (Афган)
This song has too much of a badass opening not to include, literally the PERFECT war song, the golden riff..
–
Alexander Smirnov – Forward, Kamaz

Blue Barretts – At the Dangerous Line
(Another personal favorite)

Don’t Play the Fool, America!
One of my favorite, stupid, Russian propaganda songs, basically saying that Alaska should be returned “rightfully” to Russia (despite the fact THEY SOLD IT!)

unironically catchy….. America!

Kerber – War Games

–
Bosanska Artiljerija / that Bosnian artillery song

Conclusion
Before I say anything, apologies for the delay , posting these at mid day has been difficult lately, I’ll make sure to get it right tomorrow!

Anyway yeah you all got a glimpse into what I listen to regularly, its good shit, theres dozens more songs I coulda put but I didn’t want to make this post too big, expect more of this.

I hope this is interesting, its genuinely hard finding others that are interested in this kinda stuff, but I know for a fact some of you might enjoy this tho..

Ps: it was hard as fuck finding English subtitled videos for some of these songs, I put effort into this!

Also, I do find it strange that Everytime i post this kinda music it gets avoided like the plague, I predict zero likes or comments here, but I don’t care, still tho, it confuses me, maybe im exaggerating but like whats wrong with this stuff lol,
Gn Chat.
