Leningrad (Band)Leningrad (Ленинград in Russian) is a russian ska punk band from Saint Petersburg (former Leningrad). Composed by 11 members, the band appeared in the late 1990s around singer Sergey Shnurov (Сергей Шнуров). It soon got famous for it's vulgar lyrics (see Russian mat), main reason for being avoided by most radio stations at first. But this didn't stop it's growing popularity. As Shnurov said himself: "Our songs are just about the good sides of life, vodka and girls that is.". The band is known to be disliked by Moscow mayor Yuri Luzhkov, who cancelled many of their concerts in the city. But since, the band has made it's way to radio and tv (filler noises covering the rude words, certain songs containing pretty much of these filler noises), with Shnurov even presenting some New Year's Eve tv shows.
