Мужчины в металле

**Мужчины в Металле (Men in Metal)** is a Russian heavy metal band from Yekaterinburg, formed in late 2008. They are known for playing both heavy metal and power metal styles. The band's name is a reference to a song by the Russian rock band "Ария." The core members include vocalist Yuri Sakhnov and bassist/guitarist Alexandr Rudenko. Over the years, the band has gained local popularity in Sverdlovsk Oblast and has performed at various rock festivals. Their first notable release was the album "Победа" (Victory) in 2015, which was later remastered and re-released by the Finnish label Inverse Records in 2018.

The band continued to evolve, releasing their second full-length album "Пусть душа расправит крылья" (Let the Soul Spread Its Wings) in 2018, also distributed by Inverse Records. This album marked a significant creative contribution from the band's core members alongside drummer Anatolii Kompanets. Recent releases include "Сибирь" (Siberia) in 2021 and "The Power of Metal" EP in 2022, showcasing their ongoing dedication to the metal genre.
