The Anderson. Slovozbroja. (WordArms)

"Anderson" is an alternative Kyiv group till recently better known in narrow circles. However, lately the group has noticeably mobilized, and not without a result. The song "RDZ (Give Weapons to Children)", which became on air of the radio and TV a warning of the debut album's release, was able to cause resonance due to the provocative text and a rather harsh presentation of the material. Consequently, as a result even those who knew nothing about the group were looking forward to the release of the album – and we believe that the listeners will not be disappointed. "WordArms" is a comprehensive, politely aggressive album, sounding of which includes virtually nothing superfluous. That is, at the help of minimum means (the classic rock composition), real expressiveness was achieved – no questions arise here. The more so that most attention is attracted not so much by music moves but rather by the texts. In this sense, "WordArms" is a rather rare phenomenon as for today: the album focuses on a social theme, thus – has words poignant enough. At all events, for example, the song "Draft Law" leaves no doubt that the authors worked deeply on the theme chosen... However, this is not the only text that it is interesting to observe – which is also nice. And that is why it seems to us that the album is worth taking interest of, at least for everyone who considers him/herself not indifferent.
