"Vij" is one of a few groups that really know how to keep silent. In a qualitative, saturated way. They say little, but to the point – and then silence falls down for a long time. Sometimes, it even causes cold shiver, so many various meanings are hidden there. And sometimes – everything becomes so simple, clear, clean, that your own silence get filled with light as a reply... Only real masters may be so calm and balanced – it's been a long time since when they needed to prove anything, to pretend anyone. They just do their business now – in a maximally efficient way. They choose a short path – as though a stone to the bottom. In my perception, "Vij" is one of the best Ukrainian embodiments of such thing as "sheer rock". Because, behind their external simplicity, there is transparent depth, honesty and honor, heart and wisdom. Because only a person who knows real meanings of words is able to make pauses correctly. Because the one who is not afraid to look inside is able to see and accept everything. Such a person does not change the world. He/she changes oneself – and then the world changes...

Gaydamaky are one of those groups – that enjoy really loud popularity in Europe. Loud enough to engage in listening to Ukrainian music even those people who have never ever heard about Ukraine before, to say nothing about its music..

Even their texts alone would already be quite sufficient to advantageously stand out against the majority – no doubt. This, if you wish, already really looks like rock poetry. Well, and plus – actually the music. Two bright constituents perfectly merge in it. On the one hand, this is powerful rock. On the other – warm freshness arising due to participation of not quite ordinary, as for rock, instruments matters here – a pan-pipe, accordion, domra.

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.

If there is in the world such style as benevolent, smiling punk – it is exactly this case. At least, the ideological basis. Because a lot of elements are mixed in the music: clearly, punk, plus alternative, minimalism, ska, symphonic rock, blues, hardcore – and all this cuisine is lavishly seasoned with folk in virtually all possible displays.

The long expected has finally happened – "VV" has republished its works of the past years. Cult one – you won’t call that anything but that. The album "Muzika" is something considerably more than just a music product or some high-quality goods. This is an idea, embodiment, revolution, hope, and joy, and a thousand of things in one.

...in these texts, there are rich roots braided as one plait, and I would not risk asserting that it is exclusively Slavic. In my opinion, it is great. Well and, actually, the singing. I will say only one thing about it – I do not doubt that Vasyl Ljuty sings with his heart. Well, and, obviously, he has a sincere heart...

..."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...

"Haydamaky" have surpassed themselves – in any case, they have surpassed the level, which they set with the previous album. At the same time, its main characteristic feature - drive without brakes - was not only preserved by them, but also developed. Yet, their step is not of youths, but of men.
