iamthemorning is the only Russian band I'm really into, and they're more than classy!

Vezhlivy Otkaz and Pikapika Teart are 2 of my favorite bands regardless of country.

Lev, the main guy in Uphill Work, is a semi-regular on PE and a lovely chap, he turned me onto Vezhlivy Otkaz.

I know, as I saw his thread during one of my lurking sessions on PEWink. I will recommend that album for one of January's editions of Something for the Weekend!

I don't think anyone has mentioned Rada & Ternovnik. They were added to Prog Folk a couple years ago.

I will add to those who favour Vespero. For me they recently went from 'not aware of their existence' to 'one of my favourite bands currently working' in the space of a few weeks. I believe it was Guldbamsen's review of By The Waters of Tomorrow that got me interested to listen to some tracks, resulting in a plump package of CDs from RAIG arriving not too much later Smile
 
Subkraut: U-Boats Willkommen Hier is my current favourite of theirs.

^Nice oneBig smile

I got Subkraut on some delicious blue vinyl but haven't yet digitized it, which means that I have to be in the vicinity of my stereo to play it. The past year I've been all over the place resulting in almost no plays at all. I do remember digging what I heard though. Damn...now I wish I was in my apartment - not sitting in my folks house with a cat on my kneesErmm

Have you picked up their latest Droga? For some reason it just keeps eluding me. The one track I've heard from it was absolutely killer.

Hey, thanks for the review. Very happy I checked them out.
 
I have Waters, Subkraut and Droga (and the bonus CD Liventures, etc). Really I think all three albums are very much the same level - all killer no filler - and Droga isn't any weaker than Subkraut. Just been feeling really Krauty recently! But would definitely get Droga when you can, no way you would regret it. It's a bit more "proggy", but really in a good way.
 
I'm trying not to buy vinyl at the moment as my record deck is broken and I don't know when I can fix it Ouch

Vezhlivy Otkaz have announced there will be a follow up to Geese & Swans released in Dec 15.

Here are versions of some of the new tracks they are currently working through in a live setting
