By the way, for those curious about DDT and/or Russian rock to any extent, how about some videos (from an unofficial site run with the band's blessing, and frequently promoted by users on their official forums):
Рождённый в СССР ("Born in the USSR")
- a quintessential rock anthem of more than one generation!
Расстреляли Рассветами ("Shot with the Dawns")
- very characteristic of Shevchuk's milder, more philosophical material
Небо на Земле ("Heaven on Earth"
- amazing little short artistic movie, a completely true metaphor of what is wrong with Russia
Белая Ночь ("White Night")
- another trip into Russian history, this time into the darker corners of St. Petersburg. Very moving, for me.
Одноразовая Жизнь ("One-Time Life")
- (maybe better translated as "non-reusable life") - I just like the funky but true setting of rotting St. Petersburg back-alleys, but with a twist
Она ("She")
- an example of their softer material
Крыса-весна ("Rat-Spring")
- an example of their odder and more modernistic, even slightly rap-influenced material
Мама, это рок-н-ролл ("Mama, this is Rock-n-Roll")
- an example of their live material
Я получил эту роль ("I Received This Role")
- an example of Yuri Shevchuk's solo work and searing intensity. Quite old.
And,
ROK GRUPPA - POPSA - an all-star cast of rockers belting out a tune against the Popsa.
Check them out if you got time and bandwith!
