Smyslovye Gallyutsinatsii Essentials

Smyslovye Gallyutsinatsii had been together on and off since 1989 when it ushered in the '00s with a bang. In 2000, both the release of the Russian ensemble's debut, 3000, and its inclusion on the soundtrack of the thriller Brother 2 garnered the band the attention it deserved. The outfit's expressive narratives burst with lyrical vision and rhapsodise eternity and an alien sky. Keyboards and electric guitar shift between ambition, playfulness and electronic fragility—with striking results.
