i want to know who the person that wrote that quote was.
I sure do hope you don't wanna find him and end his life.
UPD: Well, he lives in Moscow so it would be hard to kill him. His name is Ian and he plays in this band: https://phenolhouse1.bandcamp.com/album/muted-applause-ep
This Russian shit has got some wild guitars. Cyrillic tuning?
Meh just keeps coming correct! You ain't no Fonzie- this sounds fresh. This is some Chachi Jr. shit! Keep the good stuff coming!
I heard the "chachi" name when I watched Trailer Park Boys and it was said to the cop, so I'll take it as an insult. And I have zero understanding of what my next step should be. I feel like I'm being interrogated by officer in the dark room full of lube and bottle-shaped objects. Wish you could just kick my ass without those mind games, sir.
Hey just keep playing music and don't be to concerned with termbo. The younger trolls and us "older" folk on life support. I'll echo Kevin its cool that Russian kids are posting on termbo at all. Also i think AO in his wild ways was trying to be welcoming there at the end.
What current Russian bands would you suggest to someone who has no clue what is going on?
Well, the thing is, I count Termbo as the only reliable music forum (well along with Electical Audio forum). I may not post here often (my english sucks and I don't want to feel ashamed every time I post; I do anyway, though) but read almost every topic when I was working a shitty ass office job and all the users are cool and all the cultural heritage lest by users is awesome.
There's not so much of punk things going on in Russia, considering the amount of population, but I can name some names. I don't like some russian hardcore bands that consist of people from metal and youth crew bands who started chugging beer and play boring music while beating people up while onstage because "dude from hoax did so" so that'll cut a huge piece of the scene and will name some bands that I really enjoy.
As I said above, Phenolhouse from Moscow (
https://phenolhouse1.bandcamp.com/album/muted-applause-ep ) is really fucking good. Dudes love minutemen (they owe me a song for minutemen tribute album that I try to compile), nomeansno and so on. Haven't seen them live yet but my bud says it's menacing.
Power of Poison, consisting of guys from Minefield (
http://terminal-boredom.com/forums/index.php?topic=35507.msg651892#msg651892) relocated to Saint Petersburg and started playing some kind of motorhead-esque hardcore punk. I burned my jeans jacket on me when I got drunk at their show.
https://gearsthatturn.bandcamp.com/album/motorpower-epGrave Disgrace - I'm not a huge fan of their music but it's pretty unlikely that you'd ever see a person rocking a Saint Vitus shirt in Russia. I did see and he plays bass there. Heavy and long songs with a brilliant drumming.
https://gravedisgrace.bandcamp.com/It's rarely when russian band blowing my brains up. But when I heard Gizmo record, my mom told me to clean my room. Sound quality is pretty fucking bad and it makes good songs sound even better.
https://gizmokaka.bandcamp.com/album/s-tLactic Acid was pretty fun live. I was way too high, probably, but I loved the psychotic sound. Band plays on some ridiculous festivals (if you ever stumble upon the term "new russian wave" keep yourself away from listening to any band that is tagged like that.
https://lacticacid.bandcamp.com/album/your-body-is-full-of-lactic-acidПанк Фракция Красных Бригад plays artsy commie punk with strong and funny working class lyrics and I almost had my leg broken in the pit.
https://pfkb77.bandcamp.com/album/1-2017Бакурли is a noisy hardcore band from the state of Karelia which was famous for its strong straight edge scene in the beginning of 2000's.
https://bakurli.bandcamp.com/album/--2The Yakutia republic is a remote place in the middle of nowhere and you can get there only by plane. Local hardcore kids are the most productive in the country though and Oblaka is amazing (Vila Gash cover, yummy!)
https://youthofnorth.bandcamp.com/album/hard-core-tape-2017BOLO is powerviolence band that exists for a ridiculous amount of time for a pw band. After some member changes and additions they've released an album full of prog-rock elements and crazy music.
https://boloisart.bandcamp.com/album/warriors-of-peaceDisregard the silly cover art, this all-female band plays great girly songs (love for them is almost personal since guys from my band dating with two of this band's members)
https://daughtershand.bandcamp.com/album/--2Uhh I got too tired after writing all that, I almost feel nauseous. If i think of something else, I'll add more. Thanks for you interest.
Always yours, Fonzi-Chachi, haha.
