Foma, Mandry. Chas letyt. /digi-pack/. (Time Flies)
Some of these songs could be heard at Foma's performances back in 2014. Time flies, sure – the songs have been complemented with arrangements (even orchestrations), now there are more of them. Because the theme remains unchanged – the war, which came about then, lasts as of the eve of 2018, when the album is finally released. The country is painfully transforming itself. The price is high, and it consists not only of lives and deaths. The price is loss of illusions, inoculated so long ago and so deeply that under calm conditions decades would be required for proof-reading and decontamination, perhaps. These years will be required anyway – but they will now be able to accommodate more..

..all this is said somewhat eloquently – but there is also some eloquence in the entire "Time Flied" album. But it's not really a flaw – it's just a fact that does not override what it has: good songs, sometimes chic arrangements, the recognizable lyricism in Foma's lyrics (and let's also mention the cover versions of "Duma" by Shevchenko and "Black Mountain" by Vasyl Hontarsky (Vasya Club)). It's just that there is also time for some healthy eloquence – and this seems to be the time.

Rock-H. Spivanochky pro lyubov. /digi-pack/. (Melodies About Love)


It would seem that with such a title one should expect from the album if not pink tears with ruffles – then, in any case, some average ballads. But "Rock-H" from the very beginning stood out against the background, and this time, too, they do not disappoint.

Vopli Vidopliassova. Chudovy Svit. /digi-pack/. (The Wonderful World)


Even though "Wonderful World" seems to continue the trend of combining rock aesthetics with ethnics – now it sounds different. It sounds as if the band was able to rethink and synthesize all the previous groundwork – thus, when Oleh Skrypka defines this new piece as "velvet symphonic punk", that is not that much of an exaggeration..

Kozak System. Shablya. re-edition. /digi-pack/. (Saber)


"Kozak System" offers a bright mixture of modern and folk poetry, powerful rock, ska-punk with insertions of reggae, and everything is kept together by the serious frame of the Ukrainian folk root. In short - you should meet them again.

Dark Patrick. Rise of the Underworld. /mini-pack/.


..It’s hard to pinpoint exact influences that aptly mirror what Dark Patrick is going for here, though a safe bet would want to include nods to numerous strata of organic electronica, soundtrack ambient, world ethnotronica, psych and trip-hop. Additionally, the band claims some affiliation to the fertile soils of reggae, dub and trance...

Mlyn. All-Ukrainian Music Collection. /digi-pack/. (Mill)


...However, they thus somehow fit into the concept of "ethno-rock" – but nevertheless the entire picture comes out very colorful. And – it is nice that within the same style one can hear so diverse, unconventional, brilliant music.

Vasyl Lyuty (bojan Zhyvosyl). Orijana. Zhyttja jak je. (Life As It Is)


Well, finally a new disc by the boyan Zhyvosyl – Vasyl Lyuty – has appeared. I think that anyone who had already heard his songs before could not help waiting for something new. There is such force in his texts, and in music – live indeed – that it is almost impossible to listen indifferently, not to get penetrated with it.

Mandry. Lehenda pro Ivanka ta Odarku.


..."Lehenda pro Ivanka ta Odarku" is a collection of fairy tales, legends and stories which "Mandry" spread in front of our reverie eyes as a rich carpet. Some paints are up to a pain native and familiar, others are absolutely not familiar and even exotic...
