Alice - the 30th anniversary of the group

Alice - the 30th anniversary of the group. This is not the beginning and not the end. This is not a summing-up and not the start of a new phase. Thirty years is simply a statement of fact. As for estimation of this fact is everyone's right. Who are you? With us or against us? You know all the songs by heart, or just discovering the world of Кинчева-poet? Prepare for visits or redeem the Central table VIP boxes? Are you happy with it or not, but the band Alice - thirty years.

 

When, in 1983, held the first concerts of young people in Leningrad under the leadership of Svyatoslav Задерия, it was still less fraught. But when a year later they were joined by Konstantin Kinchev, the epidemic could not be stopped. Wave has gone! Concerts, festivals, cassette with the first album «Energy», the main role in the film «Cracker», «Alisa with oblique bangs» and confrontations with the authorities. So famously was twirled the beginning of a rock n roll life.

 

Members of the collective meanwhile тасовался and doing his best пасьянсами. One month, or ten years - people giving themselves «Alice», make history. «Blockade», «making movies», «206 part 2» appeared, sowing panic in прилизанных ranks and giving hope to a troubled. Musicians came and went, but the «Golden composition» group will remain in everyone's heart алисамана:

 

Konstantin Kinchev - vocals, acoustic guitar

Peter Samoilov - bass, vocals

Andrey Korolev - keys

Igor Чумычкин - guitar

Andrey Shatalin - guitar

Mikhail Nefedov - drums

 

These legendary figures were recorded crucial albums «Alice»: «the Sabbath», «For those who fell from the moon», «Black label». And the more wild and dashing was life in Russia in the early nineties, the more precisely were Kinchev partners and their music. This music was real. She opened her eyes and распахивала soul. It United. Just in time «Coven» appeared «Army Alice.» Powerful fan movement roused the country. And we must pay tribute to the faithful, the waves are still. Oh, retained membership card, press to the heart of this relic and treasure the memories of the great deeds of bygone days.

 

Turning the nineties and in the group «Alisa», dramatic changes occurred. Left Plague tragic, terrible, forever. Retired Korolev, from vain worldly (now it is an Orthodox priest). Went then to search for and Kinchev - from the unruly-crazy life he started, gradually, insecure, groping path home. This is where God is. After a trip to Jerusalem creativity of the collective started to change. From the war of external attention shifted to the internal war. Sound, word - everything became different. And if at the turn of the Millennium, «jazz» or «Fool» is not yet very informative, «Solstice», «it's later than you think», «Alien» - these plates «Alice» writes determine the attitude (and a Studio on the German land, whence the dense heavy new sound). And ever since the Orthodoxy appeared soldiers in red and black mail. Many fans, this turn of events was not satisfied. Accusations of fascism were interspersed with allegations of Christian insanity. Well, they have something to lose (with). Other admirers, not looped on social protest, sighed and walked over Кинчевым further. In the hope that he knows where he is going, what will bring them from «Labyrinth»...

 

The music of the new time, as «Kommersant», «20.12» and «Sabotage»combines all. There maliciously-the exact characteristics of the political situation, and sharp humor and self-irony. Plus peculiar Кинчеву original Paphos, raised on love to the native land and its deeds. And, of course, God. How can we do without Him?

 

So, for 30 years released 18 albums and the same collections (not counting pirate dictated by the eternal demand). Played an incredible number of concerts. Distributed tons of autographs. But the most important: awoken by hundreds of thousands of hearts! Oh, how they burn фаерами on the stages of the country... Kinchev received and returned awards. And again received. «Alice» sought by the throat different media, but miss. The series of events was turning in life and leading to new heroes of our history. By 2003 the final crystallized, and to this day looks like this: Konstantin Kinchev, Petr S. Samoilov (bass), Dmitry donkey Parfenov (keys), Igor Romanov (guitar), Evgeny Levin (guitar) and Andrey Vdovichenko (drums). In this form, the team is comfortable to be, to live, write and play music. They are the «Alice» now. Soon, soon, wait for them on the doorstep. Tour dedicated to trydtsyatylittyu of the legendary rock band, began on 14 September in Lipetsk. Red-black whirlwind passeth, to two dozens of cities, sowing seed, quenching thirst, collecting the harvest.

 

And those who are loyal was thirty-one years, with a bow. And the one that changed the way, thanks. Not waiting for assessments, «Alice» is moving his way. God willing, this road leads through your heart.
