Background notes
Archive material and source history
Moskwa TV formed in Moscow in the late 1980s, a time when Soviet censorship laws made artistic expression difficult. They built a following through performances at underground venues and festivals, developing a sound that mixed rock, folk, and electronic elements. Their debut album 'Side Effects' came out in 1989, followed by 'Painted Sky' in 1991.
Their 1993 album 'Tell Me, Tell Me' featured the song 'Tell Me Tell Me,' which became something of an anthem for them. Other tracks like 'Love Or Just Temptation' and 'A Message By Satellite' showed their interest in atmospheric, introspective writing. The core lineup included Alexei Vishnya on vocals, Vadim Samoylov on guitar and bass, and Garik Sukachev on drums.
Their lyrics often dealt with themes of alienation and existential questions, which sometimes put them at odds with mainstream expectations.
