Very cool Russian Priest,that is very different. I'd bet our forum member "guido" would dig this. That is definately not a band that follows trends,they are different for sure. And you chose the right kind of thread to put this in.
They would belong in this thread where you put this post rather than in the classic heavy metal thread.....great job Russian Priest!!!! [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Russian Priest from Monday, July 06, 2009 3:52:44 PM)

Hello all again! :)
Thanks for some interesting band you posted here! I found several I like very much now. Special thanks to J.D.DIAMOND)))
Today I would like to introduce you with one russian non-heavy band. It's called "Piknik". They plays art-rock with mystical, gothic, symbolysm and phylosophic themes in theirs lyrics since 1979. I think they are the one rock-band in Russia that made something special, original and cannot be compared to anybody around the world. Their music charmes by mysterious atmosphere, specific vocals, folk instruments and special sound effects. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piknik
If you like Pink Floyd, Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane you should listen Piknik as well. Some of their classic songs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bS5ZXt-PVlY - From the Mousetrap http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTETEiveLho - Egyptian http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OayTX8rjhY&feature=related - The Purple-Black (fan-art) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44z8d4U3JxM&feature=PlayList&p=9A2303094A40B9E6&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=31 - The Torture doesn't Finish (with Vadim Samoylov) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybt5syh68b0 - The Face http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOk_ls3eUYE&feature=related - A Little Fire (Live)
