Sputniks in ресторан

Soviet-era folk songs and anthems reimagined as raw, melodic Estonian punk. A gritty, ironic, and deeply human collision of history and distortion.

A frantic, distorted collision of childhood nostalgia and adult cynicism.

Moments Worth Listening For

The jarring transition from the somber Preface into the high-speed distorted gallop of Guelder Rose.

The way God Save the Czar turns a monarchist anthem into a frantic, sneering punk blast.

The surreal, almost tender melodicism of Crocodile Ghena’s Song played through a wall of fuzz.
