Anybody familiar with this band or person? Be careful following the masses. Sometimes the "M" is silent........................... |

I'm surprised that surf isn't more common in Russia. When I was visiting St. Petersburg we saw a "traditional" Russian music ensemble and I was in heaven. It's not hard at all to hear similarities. — |

I did see the Vivisectors - just last Saturday night at Ottos (thanks Freddie and 9th Wave / NESMA!). Bought two of the Gulag Tunes CDs, and am enjoying them very much. I met a very nice woman who runs surfmusic.ru and she told me that there are about 20 surf groups in Russia, mostly in Moscow and St. Petersburg, but she also said there were surf bands in Nizhny Novgorod and Kiev. |

Don't expect the same Messer Chups vibe with the Messer fur Frau Muller.The earlystuff is just plain dreadful,but the later stuff is just wacked out exotica.Not much of a surf/reverb guitar thing going on at all.I suggest just sticking with Messer Chups material.That's just my opinion though. —Reverb, It's A Way Of Life! |
