Fyodor summarized 30 years and it so happened that before immigration. "Nol+30" - an update of the best (?!) (or simply stale) in Fyodor Chistyakov's opinion material of the group for the anniversary. Recently, Uncle Fedya's music has become heavier, more focused on guitars, and Chistyakov himself began to sing with intonations closer to the most riotous times of the beginning of the 90s. The sound, however, became juicy and modern, remaining Russian rock, but not clamped by strict frameworks. In this vein, Fyodor re-recorded the old "Nol" things. He changed not only the arrangements but also in places reworked the lyrics for modern realities. "Kommunalnye kvartiry" ("Communal Apartments") reach hard rock by the end of the track; "Samolet" ("Airplane") became expressive; "Budet vse khorosho" ("Everything will be fine") is now a blues; "Nash den" ("Our Day") is full of the atmosphere of the beginning of the 80s; "Uzhe chelovek" ("Already a Man") is driven, and "Tsikory" ("Chicory") is insane in its disco in the remix of "Alisa" keyboardist Oslik Parfenov. To be honest, there are no outstanding tracks on the record, but in total "Nol+30!" is a good nostalgic excursion into the work of the legendary underground group of Soviet rock. You will definitely want to re-listen to the classic versions, and maybe even some albums in their entirety. By the way, one must not forget that Fyodor's new records often do not yield in level to past material, so if you were not aware, "Nol" is livelier than many groups of old Russian rock.
