tsvety

'tsvety' ('flowers') is the latest album from The Violent Youth, the post-punk project of Arthur Azarov. The record is steeped in the sounds of classic post-punk and coldwave, with driving basslines, sharp, chorus-laden guitars, and melancholic synth melodies. Azarov's deep, emotive vocals, sung in Russian, add to the music's dark and atmospheric mood. It's a powerful and authentic continuation of the sound that has earned them a dedicated following in the modern post-punk scene.
