The OM

**The OM** (ОМ) emerged from Russia's vibrant alt-rock scene, crafting moody soundscapes that blend post-punk grit with psychedelic textures. Hailing from Omsk, this enigmatic band has built a cult following since the late ’90s with their introspective lyrics and brooding instrumentation. Their tracks, like the haunting "Когда я любил" and the raw energy of "Сумасшедшая жизнь," explore themes of existential longing and emotional turbulence, delivered in Russian with a poetic edge. Recent releases, including the live recording "ИТ (Live)" and the atmospheric "Крыши," showcase their knack for blending intimate, stripped-down performances with expansive studio experimentation. While they keep a low profile, The OM remains a staple of Russia’s underground music landscape, resonating with listeners who crave depth and authenticity.
