Pompeya

"Pompeya" is an up-and-coming indie rock band from Moscow, Russia. It is a project created by members of Moscow-based bands Silence Kit and Мои Любимые Игры. The debut single Check was recorded in the beginning of 2007 and quickly became popular. Then the second single Traveller was released. POMPEYA released their full-length album Tropical in 2011. Moscow sure sounds a lot like Brooklyn in Pompeya's beat-driven indie rock. Stiff-backed rhythms culled from the dance-pop pool, expansive New Wave vocals, and gleaming guitars point to a hipster truism: '80s music is great now that we can pick and choose. POMPEYA is: Denis Agafonov - bass; Daniil Brod - guitar & voice; Nairi Simonian - drums.
