Okean Elzy. Selected...

There is at the first sight one not too significant but characteristic, demonstrative feature related to release of this disc. Namely, absence of promotion – at least, such that would be worth mentioning. And that is so even though the issue is not a new album, but a collection of selected pieces. Everything is quiet, everything is calm – why? Quite obviously – because Okean Elzy does not require at present any extensive publicity efforts to bright its work into notice. Evidently, the publishers understand that well too – however, that does not matter. Another thing matters – the collection appears really nice, strong. Not only beautiful ballads appear here – the disc consists of powerful "action hits", virtually each of them is able to instantly agitate audience of many thousands of people during a concert. And in this format, when these songs are collected together – everything appears, strange enough, vice-versa. When the disc ends – there is the feeling of pleasant devastation. Everything superfluous disappears, what remains – just clear air.
