Editor's note

Oblomov, a Russian punk band from Volgograd

Formed in 2005, they built a catalog of underground songs like 'Panta Rhei' and '1 of the 4'.

If you're new to Oblomov, 'Panta Rhei' and '1 of the 4' are good places to start. They frame the band's sound without over-explaining it.

Oblomov came out of Volgograd's punk scene with a sound that feels both raw and elusive. Their song 'Panta Rhei' hints at a mix of energy and introspection, and they've kept their creative process mostly private over the years. That low-key approach gives their music a certain underground weight.

They started in 2005 with Yegor Letov on vocals and guitar and Sergei Letov on bass, later adding Gleb Grebenshchikov on drums and Ilya Cheremisov on keyboards. Albums like 'U Luchezarnykh Vrat' in 2007 and 'Rodina' in 2014 show a steady output, with '1 of the 4' becoming a notable track for them.

Archive material and source history

Oblomov formed in 2005 in Volgograd, Russia, with Yegor Letov on vocals and guitar and Sergei Letov on bass. They came out of the city's underground punk scene, though the specifics of their early challenges aren't well documented. The band eventually included Gleb Grebenshchikov on drums and Ilya Cheremisov on keyboards.

Their song '1 of the 4' became a notable track for them, though claims about it being an international hit or topping charts should be taken cautiously. They've released albums like 'U Luchezarnykh Vrat' in 2007, 'Belaya Vesna' in 2010, 'Rodina' in 2014, and an album also titled '1 of the 4' in 2016.

Oblomov tends to keep their creative process private, with members rarely giving interviews. Their other songs include 'Noites Longe de Você', 'Nostalgic Idealization', 'Panta Rhei', and 'Starsend'.
