Moscow Death Brigade (Hardcore-Techno-Rap-Punk) Russia

MOSCOW DEATH BRIGADE is a hardcore/rap band from Russia, combining hip hop rhymes and beats, punk/metal instrumentals and political/social lyrics. The band itself refers to their music as "Circle Pit hip-hop" or "hardcore hip-hop".



MDB has become one of the most active Russian antifascist bands, opposing all kinds of discrimination and fascism, organizing and taking part in benefit events and spreading the word of unity. The Russian and English lyrics deal with anti-fascism and are socio-critical. Topics include "police brutality, violence, mass media propaganda, social prejudice and conscription".

MDB shows usually attract all kinds of representatives of subcultures: from punx, skinheads and metalheads to hip hop kids, graffiti writers and football hooligans, demonstrating that all of us are the parts of the same worldwide underground movement, based on friendship, mutual support and freedom.

MDB appears masked with balaclavas. The identities of the two rappers and the DJ are still kept secret. In their music videos, the group often shows themselves spraying graffiti on trains or houses. The band sees itself as a collective to artist friends, including sprayer, concert organizers and political activists. But ironically, the band does not consider itself a political band and claims that their views are just "human".
