Yuri Zdorenko & Hash. P’janyy shanson abo Trokhy viski. (EP). /digi-pack/. (Drunk Chanson or a Bit of Whisky)

Yury Zdorenko told in one of his interviews that hash was an Armenian dish, which very efficiently helped to overcome hangover, and it was exactly from a culinary book that he had taken the name for his new group; besides, if we go back to English slang, this word can also mean a "fight", "mincing machine". Well, and let us mention as chance offers (but without comments) that in that same slang a "hash" may also mean "cash". And what about such synonym as "bullshit"? Thus, the name appeared surprisingly polysemantic – while the new project by Zdorenko could hardly be referred to as monosemantic either. On the one hand – the drive to which everybody has got used to due to "Borsch", but at a bit different angle. On the other – the careful arrangement of the music: there is now less of the punk roughness, while a strange "fashionable" gloss has appeared there instead. On the third – Zdorenko in his texts does not step back from the previously invented recipe: merging of the comical and marginal. All of that together really reminds a strange energizing drink – and there is nothing more left to do but to regret that now "Hash" performs not that frequently. Judging by this mini-album, there will be no indifferent or languid listeners at concerts by Zdorenko and Co)
