Chervona pihulka. 2-ha doza. Ukrainian Alternative Music. (Red Pill. 2nd Dose)

As you can see, this is already the second "Red Pill" – and it is nice to mark that the number of participants is growing. You will find here both old acquaintances and the "young blood" – the meeting will be interesting. For a large part of songs represented here, this is the first official release, they have not yet had time to see the light of the day as parts of albums. And consequently, you are now in the position to assess the situation in a fresh cut, to look into the perspective. It is important that "alternative music" in this case is not so much definition of the style as characteristics of relations. Meaning that in order to be alternative, music does not need to necessarily become really heavy, hard. The main thing is search for non-standard solutions, and our groups are evidently not afraid of looking for them. And that is why sometimes there even appear some ethnic motives, to say nothing about experiments with mixing various style features. However, they could not do without heavy music solutions – but it would be even strange if it were otherwise. In the end, when creating something new, you have to make certain efforts – to go beyond the old and to find new truth.
