Soviet & Russian wartime music, be it from a certain war or about war in general. No era restrictions but a general thread leaning towards music from the current Russo-Ukrainian war. Russia has a vast history of wartime music from all its conflicts, across every music genre, however much of it remains routinely purged from English-language websites by tranny jannies. I am making this thread as over the past month, YouTube and other western big tech platforms have enacted a massive purge of Russian war music for "hate speech" and now impose blanket ban on all Russian music from the current conflict. Some sneak under the radar for a few months but all is eventually banned.- UPLOAD LOCAL ARCHIVES! - Heavily recommended for music about the current war. If you just embed a youtube video, it is likely to be dead within a few months. What is ideal is to upload directly to this site as a permanent archive while linking to the source you got it from.
- Stay on topic; this thread is for music, not political discussion.
- Translated lyrics to English are greatly appreciated if you can find them, either embedded as subtitles or added yourself by just using google translate and including the translated lyrics in your post.
RU music only. If you would like to discuss Ukrainian war music, such as the music video starring President Volodymyr Zelensky wearing gay leather tights & high heels and twerking, groping other mens' buttcheeks, and blowing kisses at the camera (the other guys all wearing gay leather bondage gear), or other Ukrainian musical hits like Zelensky wearing a strap-on dildo and pretending to play the piano with his dick, there's an entire website for stuff like that which you can find here.
Katyusha - Russian WW2-era folk song & one of the most well-known songs in the country. 1) Original 2) Modern fast-paced pop remix

Quite a rough translation - cannot find a proper translation and Google Translate sucks. Source
Summer and Crossbows, Wagner are arriving
Somewhere, where the coins are ringing, they are not dancing there [*officially*]

I was at the Disco in Tripoli, Flight of the Valkyries
I danced in Benghazi, Donbass, & Palmyra
(Bro-bro) Armor-shell, bowstring in a satchel, partisans, Spartans
Rubbing fingers, saving calcium, here there are wandering monks
We beat the third, the orchestra performs with two legs in the berets
Knock on the door - we're here with a concert, let's play maestro!

Again a crusade, again Ilyushin carries to work.
Again Brunnhilde called to hunt
Ran caravan, sadiq salam, how are you? Let's drink mate and get down to business!
Bam drum, put the hookah away, Tamam? Barmaley preparing arrows.
Rub fingers, save calcium, the rest is a matter of habit!
Armor-shell, bowstring in a satchel. And there're Turkish birds nearby!

Dmitry Poltoratsky - 'Tango P.M.C.' (Дмитрий Полторацкий - Танго Ч.В.К. ВАГНЕР)
Viktoriya (Vika) Tsyganova - Wagner (Вика Цыганова - Вагнер)
Вагнер (Wagner) - Artist: Vika Tsyganova
[Verse 1]
The band members of the war are madly in love
In the oratorio cannonade
In this gold of days and breaks of nights
And in the intermissions of the hospital ward
Bands of war for fire are born
For battles without any idylls
Where, under the cries of Chimeras, conductor Lucifer
Flying the Valkyries
[Chorus]
So come on, Wagner, play
Raise your orchestra members
Raise with a light stroke of the bow
Our Russian PMC
[Verse 2]
The band members of the war don't want silence
To Valhalla their path is in bright light
There is only the moon in the sky, only war in the heart
And the crazy tango of death
[Chorus]
So come on, Wagner, play
Raise your orchestra members
Raise with a light stroke of the bow
Our Russian PMC
[skit]
Bandsmen, warriors of Russia
May grace be with you
Our Fallen, Our Saints
And God's heavenly army
[Chorus]
So come on, Wagner, play
Raise your orchestra members
Raise with a light stroke of the bow
Our Russian PMC
So come on, Wagner, play
Raise your orchestra members
Raise with a light stroke of the bow
