Vopli Vidopliassova, often abbreviated as ВВ and also known as VV, is a venerable and influential Ukrainian rock band that emerged from the post-punk underground scene of Kyiv in the mid-1980s. Founded by lead singer Oleh Skrypka and bassist Yevhen Rohachevsky, the band carved out a unique niche by blending traditional Ukrainian folk motifs, punk energy, and a rock 'n' roll ethos. Over time, Vopli Vidopliassova became synonymous with a distinctly Ukrainian rock sound that has resonated across multiple generations.

Throughout their expansive career, VV has undergone several lineup changes but has never lost its core spirit, driven by Skrypka's charismatic stage presence and distinctive voice. The band is known for its enthusiastic live performances, which often feature a diverse array of instruments and elaborate concert themes, marrying the theatrical with the musical. Despite periods of hiatus and changing music industry trends, VV's music, including hits like "Танці" (Dances) and "Весна" (Spring), continues to strike a chord with audiences, encapsulating the rebellion and rejuvenation of Ukrainian rock. Their contributions to Ukrainian music were further cemented by the remastered releases, such as "Закустика" (Acoustics), showcasing their enduring legacy in Eastern European rock music.
