Deti Picasso
This Armenian group based in Moscow comes highly recommended.
Deti Picasso:
Vocalist Gaya Arutiunian sings songs in Russian and Armenian, astounding the public with the feeling and expression of her performance.Ancient Armenian chants blend with new forms of guitar Brit pop, with a similarly interesting, if not so ancient, history: the 60's, Blur and Radiohead...
They have made some of their songs available online to download in mp3 format. I like the track "Im Gala". (Clicking this link will download the file to your computer)

Posted by: Hakob Gevorgian at December 17, 2004 09:16 AMI'm currently researching the Armenian rock scene for a later article. The first from a series of interviews can be found online:
An Interview with Alexander Aslizadyan, SARD
SARD is a young rock band from Yerevan. Although the audience remains small for local rock groups, interest in SARD is increasing, especially after the video for their song, Zabaikalsky Rap, was shown on local television.

I wish I never listened to this paganish
track "Im Gala"... I can`t get it out of
my head...
"Im Gala" "Im Gala" "Im Gala" "Im Gala"
Posted by: DRN at December 19, 2004 08:25 AMWhat does "Im Gala" mean, and what is that song generally about? I can't stop playing it... :)
