«Leningrad» today is the most popular band in Russia. In 2017, «Leningrad» celebrates its twentieth anniversary. How did it happen that an absolutely amateur ensemble, starting with funny stylizations of criminal songs, eventually broke all records of recognition and success?...
Why does every new song by Sergey Shnurov become a hit, and his lyrics instantly become proverbs?
In the book «Leningrad. The Incredible and True Story», Sergey Shnurov's friend, journalist and writer Maxim Semelyak, traced the step-by-step journey of the group from their first rehearsals and random earnings to stadium concerts and millions of views online. This book is a stream of memories from people who lived, loved, drank, laughed, and fought to the music of «Leningrad», played this music as if it were the last time, and ultimately made it a part of history. The book includes unique archival photographs and, of course, reflections and comments from Sergey Shnurov himself.
