Agata Kristi rocks

Rock 'n' roll never dies! Russian rock group “Agata Kristi” proves that to be true – by presenting their latest show in the heart of Moscow.

Despite the rainy and cold weather, hundreds of rock lovers gather at the Hermitage garden in Moscow. While the musicians are busy with the sound-check, Agata Kristi's fans warm themselves up by singing the hits of their rock idols, and here the show begins.

The Agata Kristi band was founded by the Samoilov brothers in 1988 and quite quickly gained nationwide recognition. Their controversial songs, exploring the dark side of the human soul, shocked the post Soviet society.

And some experts even compare Agata Kristi with Western groups like The Cure and the Doors.

At the concert the rockers perform songs from their latest album “Thriller: Part One”.

The show's lighting corresponds with the name of the album – everything in red. The lyrics are also quite thrilling.

One of the songs is about a girl, who asks her boyfriend to kill their love, before it disappears.

This could be about any of these girls, all in black.

Over the last 20 years Agata Kristi has earned the status of a cult group. The legendary rockers even got a World Music Award in Monte Carlo, as the best Russian musicians. The rockers are not prepared to lose their status.

They say they are already working on the Second part of the Thriller.
