Valery Kipelov and guitaristSergey Mavrin , both formerly of Aria (Kipelov was still a member of Aria when it was released). Alik Granovky, former Aria bassist, was a guest musician on "SV", but composed no songs for it. Songs from the album are still played both by Kipelov's group "Kipelov" and Mavrin's "Mavrik".Although the major vein of the album is
heavy metal , common for both artists, it also includes some slow ballads and even a "drunkard"-blues song, "Vypyem Yesho" (One More Drink).Track #4, "Ya Svoboden" (I am Free), suddenly became a hit in 2003 when it was re-released by
Kipelov and a music video was aired on MTV. The ballad topped Russian rock charts and was featured onMTV Russia 's Top 20.Track listing
