This post is about the Russian "brit-rock" wave, aka Russian indie rock bands singing in English that were active during the short period of time between 2007 and 2009.
Initially, I just wanted to make a music mix featuring some of these bands that I used to listen to in high school and play on my improvised internet radio show (that only my friends listened to), but then I realised that I would need to introduce this whole thing somehow.
But first, here's a link to the mix:
