Gorky Park - Bang

Gorky Park (international title) or "Парк Горького" (Russian title) was a Soviet (later Russian) glam metal band, that gained mainstream popularity in USA during the Perestroyka times. Gorky Park is famous for its kitsch use of western stereotypes of Russians, such as pseudo-traditional clothing, balalaika-like guitar design and Hammer and sickle as their logo. It was the first Russian band to be aired on MTV. Check also the song's lyric here.



Also check out their live performance, also with the same song.
