Gorky Park

A Soviet, American and Russian rock band created in the year 1987 in Moscow at the Stas Namin Center. At the end of the 80s, it gained popularity in the USA. It is known for its stage image in the form of "Russian kitsch," pseudo-folk costumes and Soviet symbols. In its original lineup, it existed for 3,5 years and released one album, Gorky Park, which entered the American Billboard 200 hit parade, making the band world-famous. From the middle of the year 90, the band began to work without Stas Namin and Nikolai Noskov. In this lineup, it released 3 studio albums. The first of them was released in the year 1992 under the title "Gorky Park 2" and enjoyed success only in European countries. The last two studio albums — "Stare" and "Protivofazza" — were released in the years 1996 and 1998 and did not gain their former popularity either in Russia or abroad.
