Гучней трубы, усё нармальна, сокал вырваўся з клеткі!
Неістотна, хто ты - гопнік ці акадэмік, спарцмэн ці алькаголік, дзяўчына ці дзядок... Калі ты любіш творчасць сцёб-рок-поп-арт-ска-панк банды "Ляпіс Трубяцкі" - далучайся! :)
''Ляпіс Трубяцкі'' - ледзь не галоўнае культуровае дасягненьне Беларусі. Сяргей Міхалок і кампанія прайшлі шлях ад менскага андэграўнду да папсовых стадыённых натоўпаў, каб неўзабаве нечакана для многіх ізноў вярнуцца да сваіх альтэрнатыўных пачаткаў. Але зараз на змену задэкляраванаму пьянству прыйшоў ідэялягізаваны бокс, а абсурдыскім пародыям на поп-шлягеры - вострая сацыяльная сатыра. Пасьля выхаду альбомаў "Капітал" (2007) и ''Manifest'' (2008) пра Ляпісаў загаварылі як пра адзін з самых яскравых гуртоў на пост-савецкай прасторы.
This May Lyapis Trubetskoy embark on a coast-to-coast US tour which includes Washington DC(State Theater), Boston(Middle East), New York(Irving Plaza), San Francisco(Cocomo) and Toronto (Mod Club).
This 7-piece horn-driven ska-punk outfit come all the way from Minsk, Belarus and bring with them a spirited mix of biting satire and powerful chords. Lyapis Trubetskoy were once at the top of the charts in their country, as well as in the ex-Soviet Republics. Mid-way through their career, not content to merely churn out bland radio format hits, they decided to shed their pop-star image and get real about their music and lyrics. And so they became an independent band with a cult-like following of loyal fans. In a much politicized environment of their homeland, Belarus is the last country in Europe run by a strong-arm man, LT is also independent politically: “We were never in support of the current regime nor of it’s opposition. We’re not calling on people to hit the streets and riot. My grenade must explode inside people’s heads. To wake up the sleeping masses, that’s our main goal”, declared Sergey Mikhalok, the band’s leader.
And wake you up they shall … They caused a real stir with their ’07 album, Capital, the title song and video, in which they slam the current obsession with wealth and war and portray defiant dictators Fidel, Hugo, Belarus’ own Lukashenko, Kim, Mahmud and Saddam as pseudo-religious icons. The poignant message hits home, whether you’re an anarchist or a republican. The clip was banned from airplay in Belarus and Russia, of course, but won numerous awards everywhere else and is a real hit with the You-Tube masses. In ’08 they released the edgier Manifest and made the entire album available for free digital download from their website Lyapis.com(currently here), in return fans were asked to send videos set to the songs on the album. That's Fair Trade and DIY Freedom of Speech. The best of the numerous submissions can be seen on MySpace. The album was named Best Album by Ukrainian and Russian indie radio stations, Lyapis Trubetskoy – Best Band.
Their new popularity on the rise, Lyapis Trubetskoy are keeping busy touring at home and abroad, playing sold-out shows in biggest venues in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus. To the delight of their US fans, for the first time ever this May, LT are coming here for a 6-date coast-to-shining-coast tour.
Громче трубы, все в порядке, сокол вырвался из клетки!
Неважно, кто ты - гопник или академик, спортсмен или алкоголик, девушка или дедушка...Если ты любишь творчество стеб-рок-поп-арт-ска-панк-команды ЛЯПИС ТРУБЕЦКОЙ - вступай в наши ряды! :)
"Ляпис Трубецкой" – едва ли не главное культурное достояние пост-советской Беларуси. Пройдя путь от минского околотеатрального андеграунда до попсовых стадионных солянок, Сергей Михалок и компания неожиданно для многих вернулись к своим альтернативным корням. Только на смену декларируемому пьянству пришел идеологизированный бокс, а на смену абсурдистским пародиям на поп-шлягеры – хлесткая социальная сатира. После выхода альбомов "Капитал" (2007) и "Manifest" (2008) о "Ляписах" заговорили как об одной из самых ярких и мощных групп русскоязычной альтернативы.
