Sergei Shnurov

Sergei Shnurov

Sergei "Shnur" Shnurov ( _ru. Сергей Шнуров) (born April 13, 1973) [ [http://www.peoples.ru/art/music/rock/leningrad/ Ленинград ( Leningrad) ] ] is the frontman for the Russian ska-punk band Leningrad, a group that enjoys legendary popularity despite the fact that most of their songs contain explicit lyrics. Moscow Mayor Yuriy Luzhkov has canceled Leningrad concerts in Moscow. Shnur, as he's affectionately known, is a local hero despite his foul language. Western audiences can check out a few of his songs on the soundtrack to Everything Is Illuminated, including the hugely popular "Dikij Mushchina," which translates as "Wild Man."

Shnurov also composed music for many other movies, including the Russian cult-film "Boomer". He released a solo album with the same foul language that made him famous as the front man of Leningrad.
