Drawing from post-punk, cold wave, and Soviet-era melancholy, the album pairs rigid drum machines with icy synth lines and Egor Shkutko’s detached baritone. Tracks like “Sudno (Boris Ryzhy),” “Toska,” and “Kletka” feel both deeply personal and starkly architectural, mirroring the concrete landscapes that inspired the band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile rooted in 1980s Eastern European aesthetics, \u003cem\u003eEtazhi \u003c\/em\u003eresonates across generations, finding renewed life through digital culture and vinyl reissues. Its emotional restraint and hypnotic repetition give the album a timeless quality, proving that minimalism, when done with intent, can speak volumes. — \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/theanalogvault.mom\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eThe Analog Vault\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e—\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe second LP by Belarusian trio Molchat Doma, \u003cem\u003eЭтажи\u003c\/em\u003e (pronounced \u003cem\u003eEtazhi\u003c\/em\u003e, meaning “Floors”), was first released in 2018 on Berlin-based Detriti Records. It became a viral hit, garnering over one million views on YouTube and becoming a legitimate phenomenon on Bandcamp. The band may fly under the radar in their native Belarus, but they’ve reached huge audiences across Europe and beyond. Six separate vinyl pressings of the album have sold out in quick succession, and Sacred Bones Records is now thrilled to bring the record back in print for good. — (via \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sacredbonesrecords.com\/products\/sbr3037-molchat-doma-etazhi?pr_prod_strat=jac\u0026amp;pr_rec_id=1e061bfd7\u0026amp;pr_rec_pid=4413467230254\u0026amp;pr_ref_pid=7031186620462\u0026amp;pr_seq=uniform#description\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eLabel\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e—\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbout Molchat Doma\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMolchat Doma (translated as “Houses Are Silent”), founded in 2017 in Minsk, Belarus, stands at the intersection of post-punk, new-wave and synth-pop. Dark yet danceable, and with a heavy dose of goth ethos, their music is reminiscent of the masters that predate them, but make no mistake: Molchat Doma creates a sound and meaning that is immediately recognizable as all their own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe band is comprised of Egor Shkutko, who sings the Russian lyrics in his deep monotone, Roman Komogortsev on guitar, synths, and drum machine, and Pavel Kozlov on bass and synths. The band's influences include Perestroika-era Russian groups such as Kino, as well as post-punk and synth pop staples like The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Depeche Mode, and the Human League.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMolchat Doma released their first two albums that grew the band’s name through word of mouth. Sophomore album \u003cem\u003eEtazhi\u003c\/em\u003e (“Floors”) went through numerous pressings in Europe before Sacred Bones signed the band in early 2020. The third album Monument was released in 2020. Most recently, the band released their highly anticipated fourth album, Belaya Polosa - a love letter to the spirit of the 1990s, infused with sampling techniques and a carefully curated selection of sounds and musical influences that shaped the band's creative process. — (via \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sacredbonesrecords.com\/collections\/molchat-doma\"\u003eLabel\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e—\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIncludes digital download card\u003cbr\u003eReissued on coke bottle clear vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" style=\"border-radius: 12px;\" data-testid=\"embed-iframe\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/1FHREwXgTQvqiG8q5KlRzc?utm_source=generator\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVinyl Tracklist\u003cbr\u003eA1 Na Dne\u003cbr\u003eA2 Tancevat\u003cbr\u003eA3 Filmy\u003cbr\u003eA4 Volny\u003cbr\u003eB5 Toska\u003cbr\u003eB6 Prognoz\u003cbr\u003eB7 Sudno (Boris Rizhy)\u003cbr\u003eB8 Kommersanty\u003cbr\u003eB9 Kletka\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e↓\u003cbr\u003eLabel: Sacred Bones Records\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Vinyl, LP, Album, Reissue, Repress, Stereo, Coke Bottle Clear\u003cbr\u003eReissued: 2021 \/ Originally Released: 2018\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Electronic, Rock\u003cbr\u003eStyle: Lo-Fi, New Wave, Synth-pop, Post-Punk, Darkwave\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFile under: TAV Essential Listening\u003cbr\u003eFile under: Electronic \/\/ Synthesiser\u003cbr\u003e⦿\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sacred Bones Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46438887063710,"sku":"843563139769","price":48.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0584\/5434\/3838\/files\/R-20103439-1633091165-4620.jpg?v=1769234951","url":"https:\/\/theanalogvault.mom\/products\/molchat-doma-etazhi-coloured-vinyl","provider":"The Analog Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
