The RUSSIAN NUGGETS vol.1 – 20 underground artyfacts from golden era.

Despite the iron curtain, in 1965 Beatlemania already reached Russia, and thousands of young people across the country started making their own guitars and trying to learn how to play Beatles and Rolling Stones songs. At first Russian lyrics were combined with western tunes, which sometimes turned out to be rather interesting. Later musicians started to write their own music.
Despite the total censorship and impossibility to release albums, rock bands played across the USSR as early as in 1970 – people needed to rest and to dance, so guitar ensembles were essential.
The bands were supposed to perform dance songs, but often they sounded rough and loud, producing a real garage sound.
New trends reached Russia slowly, and there were big problems with equipment, so, e.g., in 1977 in Saratov or Novgorod one could find a band playing with a 1967 Texas sound.
Unlike the other world, where musical history is valued and hundreds of compilations, such as Nuggets,Peace love and poetry,Back from the grave,Simla beat etc. are produced, no one has ever produced compilations of Russian and Ukranian bands.
Most people do not even know that such recording can exist, and the bands are long ago forgotten. Specially for this recourse I have made the FIRST compilation of such songs, RUSSIAN NUGGETS.

The Crushers “Live Crushers”,”Glory of the day”.

The Crushers is a Moscow band,with a more than 10 years(!) history and strongly,strrrrongly recommended to all garage rockers,who can’t live without music of Kinks,Sonics,The Seeds,Music Machine and other wild and fuzz sixties stuff…For all who knows how to shout “G!….L!….O!….R!..I!…A!”
In my opinion their best record is the “Live”,full of energy and drive.”Glory of the day” have a really better quality of sound.

Ariel’ “Ariel’-1″ 1968 + 8 bonus tracks 1968-73

Ariel’ in sixties was a strong garage beat band in Cheliabinsk.In this format band plays before 1970.In 70 half of band with a new musicians from the band Allegro formed a new ensemble and takes old name.This ensemble plays folk-pop,recording many LP’s and still popular today… it was already another band,but in first years they make some good non-album prog numbers,I’m add this songs of new Ariel’ in bonus tracks.
Похоже,с сегодняшнего дня имеет смысл начать писать немного так же по-русски – у нас всё-таки набирается и отечественная аудитория,это радует безусловно.
Итак,группа Ариэль,альбом 68-го года,именно группа а не “ВИА”.
ВИА Ариэль появится только в 70-м,при слиянии с группой Аллегро.
Запись без сомнения ещё одна классика русского гаражного рока 60-х.Да и тот Ариэль что появился в 70-м далеко не сразу стал играть “народные” поп-песни,в бонус треки из разных источников добавлены малоизвестные песни вроде “Вступительная” или “Одиночество”,которая вообще соляками напоминает германский прогрессив рок тех лет.

The Cavestompers! “Introducing the…” 2008

The Cavestompers! – a band from Moscow, Russia confessing savage garage-punk, from mid-sixties and primitive beat sound, filled with psychedelic guitar and organ passages. The whole idea behind The Cavestompers! was simply to play together some favorite songs from 1960s, have fun and if everything goes right walk further and create original material with authentic garage punk sound, feel, attitude and spirit. Formed in fall 2006 for the past two years the band played almost 100 gigs all around the country and in Europe, released 3 demo-tapes (one of these mixed by E.Letov), plenty of bootlegs and finally made it to the studio, recording their debut LP “Introducing The Cavestompers!”(recorded in 110% analog beauty on 2” tape and then copied directly on vinyl platter with no digital signals and gear used at all). The sound experiments of the band gradually led to birth of their own specific sound based on heavy usage of east-bloc and soviet equipment & instruments, which can be described as a slightly delayed answer to sixties garage music coming from an Iron Curtain. Original material now prevails in The Cavestompers! average concert set-list, but there is always space for some weird covers of lost garage, beat, soviet, punk treasures and finds.
It happened so that at the time The Cavestompers! started there was not much of a scene around and naturally the band went into developing and then supporting it. That included hosting “Garage Gathering” festival, “Proof Of Fuzz” parties, numerous allnighters and concerts which made it possible for like-minded freaks from all over Russia to express themselves in front of emerging audience. Now one can call The Cavestompers! not only a band but a rather big commune of enthusiasts (photographers, publicists, dj’s, go-go dancers, artists, guys from psychedelic lightshow) all responsible for some sort of garage “boom” and breakage of ice here and there. Recently the band started Plastic Cave Records/Distro which for now is dealing with distribution of russian garage music, the only available release being The Cavestompers! debut on CD, but hopefully there will be some new arrivals soon.
Meanwhile The Cavestompers! music was featured 20 some thematic radio-shows, college radios and podcasts from all over the world (USA, Germany, Spain, Canada, France, Greece, Austria, Netherlands). The bands debut album made it to number one position in Whole Lotta Shakin Radio Show (Rochester,NY) chart in October 2009 and was chosen release of the month by Stoned Circus radio-show(Rennes, France) in march 2009.
Good reviews on the material surprisingly came from founding fathers such as Electric Prunes and GONN! and their descendents The Cynics, The Thanes, Robert Gordon, legendary PUNK! magazine and a bunch of other outsiders from all over the world. Shindig mag (UK) wrote about the band and next issue of Misty Lane fanzine(Italy) will feature a big interview with The Cavestompers! plus a song on supplied CD. Other mentions and reviews were featured in Rumore magazine(Italy), Fuzzoverdose(web-zine Greece), rockaroundtheblog.com, Kick Out The Jams(Spanish Fanzine), www.ipunkrock.net(Spain), Kommersant, Play, TimeOut, Rolling Stone, Rovesnik, Zvuki.ru(all from Russia). There were also about 4 brief appearances on local TV.
In January 2009 the band’s own label Plastic Cave Records(toghether with russian indie-label Noizer) pressed a CD-version of debut LP, originaly released by Groovie Records (Portugal) with different artwork and bonus tracks and made a 6 cities support tour (Volga Region, North-West, Ural). In summer 2009 The Cavestompers! made their first European Tour supporting the debut release. It was self-organized and included 15 gigs (Netherlands, France, Austria, Germany). During the tour the band opened for Wild Billy Childish and The Musicians of British Empire at Primitive Festival(Rotterdam,NL) the bill also featured Fleshtones, Urges, Masonics. The Cavestompers! also shared the stage with Los Peyotes in Vienna and participated in Wild Evel birthday trash in Austria with Staggers, Satelliters, Way y Los Arrrghs. The debut release is now avaliable to purchase almost worldwide on vinyl and cd, check our blog for details

Synfonics – Synfonics LP 2009

Rokky – guitar, vocals
Enckell – Bass
Dezaktive – Drums
Synfonics are young trio from Saint-Petersburg, playing together less
then a year. A lots of 60’s psych-pop, garage rock influnces , spiced up
sometimes with jangle surf guitar licks, and sometimes with heavy fuzz
solos, with cool charismatic loosier vocals and great catchy melodies.
This album was recorder live. So there are a lot of mistakes and tempo
instability. Drums was picking only with 3 mics. But generally it sounds
cool and real RAW.
