Fakultet. [myt]... (a moment...)

A new face appears on the sky of the Ukrainian music. A serious and resolute one. With thin but firm features. "Fakultet" has female lips and male system of muscles, has its steel softness in the look of the ageless eyes. The protest has no age – and it is, certainly, music of protest. Speed rock, alternative, a bit of grunge, and so on in the same spirit – but, however surprising, when performed by the group, even this hard music bears in it something of the Ukrainian melos. Our thanks go, first of all, to Valya Levchenko – it is her manner of singing that makes the group’s face more expressive and recognizable. It is not that Valya sings sheer Ukrainian melodies. Not at all. But there are in her performance elements of something that Ukrainians call their own. So, I think, "Fakultet" will not be lost not only among local, but also among European and American groups. In spite of its rather young age. I really hope that nobody and nothing will intrude into its development. Since then we may hope that "Fakultet" will become one of the best groups of not only the country – but the world. It has already become one of the best groups of the country – at once.
