“We came from the underground and became popular with our pop-culture parodies. One day to my horror I realized that our group has become similar to the objects of our parodies and mockery. We were starting to merge with all those pop-star crowd, but I’m not one of them and never wanted to be,” - Sergey Mikhalok, the band’s leader says. He admits that it wasn’t so easy to give up the show business game and become independent once again.
According to him, “it was very difficult to get our true essence back on top. And the thing wasn’t about any contracts. We had to overcome public opinion and, most importantly, set our own minds free. At first, my internal discomfort from the gap between the authentic “Lyapis Trubetskoy” and its public image was relieved by hard drinking and other stuff, but when my weight peaked at 110 kilograms and my mind was about to collapse, I gave up everything, lost 25 kilograms and started to play the music I like.”
“Capital” is the second independent album by “Lyapis Trubetskoy” after the “Zoloty’ye yaytsy” (“Golden Balls”) created in 2004 under heavy reggae and ska influence. “While working on “Zoloty’ye yaytsy” we didn’t understand what to do with our independence. As a result there were some reflex attempts to score a radio hit with “Rain’ka” or “Pochtal’iony” (“Postmen”), - Sergey Mikhalok says. – But this wasn’t the biggest problem. The whole album was overproduced, we tried to mix too many styles, musical instruments and sounds in it. So, we paid too much attention to the form instead of the essence. We were in need of a real professional who could tell us what was good and what was too much.”
That is why searching for a sound producer was one of the main tasks while working on “Capital”. At some point the band wanted to record their album in London, in the hometown the legendary British ska-band “Madness” (one of Mihalok’s favourites). When almost everything was ready for that, a chance interfered. At a concert in Kiev “Lyapis Trubetskoy” met a famous Ukrainian sound producer Vitaliy Telezin. He worked with “Okean El’zi”, “Brat’ia Grim” and other top Ukrainian/Russian artists. But it wasn’t the thing that attracted Mikhalok and his friends.
“We are from the same generation with him, we had common world outlook, we liked the same music. And it was the music we wanted to record on our new album. I don’t want to offend anyone, but, roughly speaking, for our band he is the first studio guy who didn’t need explanations about what is California wave or how “Green Day” and “Offspring” make their sound,” - Mikhalok says.
And this combination has worked perfectly well. Now it’s already clear that the new album will mean to the band and its fans no less than the legendary “Ty kinula” (“You Gave Me Up”) in 1998 and will give a rise to the new popularity wave for “Lyapis Trubetskoy”. Still, according to Sergey Mikhalok, the ideology of both the new album and the present group is different from what used to be in the years between these two landmarks. He says: “When I started my career I used to write songs that changed me and the world around me, but later I began to create stuff, that didn’t have influence either on me or the world around. At best those songs could be a soundtrack for some wedding or birthday. And what is horrible at some point I even used to be proud of that. But now I have come back to what everything started from – to a mix of biting satire and powerful chords.”
Video clips have played an important role in the album presentation. The first clip for the song “Hare” (“Enough”), a cheerful wedding trash-video, was filmed by a famous actor and new wave director Vladimir Epifantsev. The second clip, animation video “Capital”, which has become a real Internet sensation, was made by Aleksey Terekhov, co-author of the legendary “Au” (1998) and “Rozochka” (1999) videos. "Capital" has hardly appeared on TV, but has already won several prizes and got a lot of nominations on the different video & music festivals in Russia, Belarus, Portugal and so on.
Frontman Siarhei Mikhalok anounced mid-March 2014 that the group would ceased to exist the next 1 September.

Неслышные шаги

В груди рождая стон
Букет прекрасных роз

Великолепных грез
Достойна только ты

Объятья нежных губ
На нож бросают тень

The song "Розочка" by Ляпис Трубецкой tells the story of a man who awaits the arrival of his lover. He asks her not to lie to him because he is opening the gardens of his spring to her and presenting her with the flowers of his love. The chorus speaks of a red rose that he has given her, a symbol of his love and the fulfillment of his dreams. He describes her as worthy of magnificent dreams and a bouquet of beautiful roses, and expresses his admiration for her beauty.
The second verse describes the moment of their meeting as a dream come true, and he says that tears were shed in his chest, giving birth to a moan. The bouquet of beautiful roses is again mentioned, emphasizing the beauty of their dreams and the amazing things they can achieve together. The last verse mentions that the roses, like the dawn, bring a new day. There is something between them that cannot be denied, and they share a glass of wine, embracing each other's tender lips, drinking the wine and letting their inhibitions go. The song ends with the chorus once again, reminding us of the beautiful red rose that the man gave to his lover.

Один из самых недооценённых треков, охрененный и трек и клип, я его тоже не сразу заценил, но он шедеврален как и всё у старого ляписа.
@hategoogle7933
Лучший трек Ляписа, а клип очевидный шедевр. Я тащился от него стопитсот лет назад - он сейчас ещё прекраснее)

Абсолютно, полностью согласен. Вся группа - сплошная постирония. Задолго до того, как это стало модно. А каков стиль!

Терехов, конечно, гений. Но и песня — одна из лучших у Михалка.
@user-zj5lm7ue5o
Это самая крутая песня в творчестве Л.Т. Наряду со Снегавичком и Капитал.
Можете меня поносить,спорить,но я своего мнения не изменю...как человек который в этом шарит)
Эта песня...лучшая)
