2011 New Era

Ygyatta

Oblachny Kray · 18 tracks · 1:10:36
The band's final studio album — the result of six years of work. Recorded with Sergey Bogaev (guitars, vocals, drums, bass), Alexey Vishnya (loops, keyboards), and Evgeny Guberman (drums); completed in December 2010. In Andrei Tropillo's words, "this album has the most powerful hard rock sound in the history of Russian recording." During the sessions, the song "There Is No One to Break the Birch" was born — a collaboration with Dmitry Revyakin of Kalinov Most for the Alexander Bashlachev tribute. "Ygyatta" became Sergey Bogaev's creative testament: on May 28, 2011, the final footage for the video "Aria of the Varangian Guests" was filmed — his last creative work.

Album story

With the album "Ygyatta", we are beginning to publish a retrospective of the albums by the legendary Oblachnyy Kray for your consideration. The band is the brainchild of the virtuoso guitarist, multi-instrumentalist, poet, and writer of the vast majority of the band's compositions, Sergey Bogaev. All albums have been restored and remastered. Bonus tracks from the same period these albums were recorded have been added. This work was the last in Sergey's life; shortly after its completion, he tragically died. Besides being incredibly strong in terms of its creative composition and engineering work, this album is also notable for being the very last recording made at the famous studio of the legendary Andrey Tropillo, "AnTrop", which ceased to exist after this album was recorded.
