Russian Post-punk

Russian post-punk is a genre characterized by its dark, introspective soundscapes and brooding atmospheres, often featuring prominent use of synthesizers, driving rhythms, and melancholic vocal deliveries. Emerging in the 1980s, the genre evolved from the Soviet Union's underground music scene, influenced by Western post-punk and new wave. During the late 2000s and 2010s, Russian post-punk experienced a revival, with a new wave of artists pushing the genre's boundaries. Culturally significant, Russian post-punk reflects the country's complex history, social isolation, and existential anxieties. Drawing from post-punk, gothic rock, and electronic music, the genre is distinct in its incorporation of Russian folk melodies and lyrics often exploring themes of existential crisis, love, and social disillusionment.
