Poor utro.ru Grigoryan said in an interview that "Star" - an inflatable doll. -The first question - about your new album "Amsterdam". Tell me more about the concept and how it was created. - An album of its kind is revolutionary, especially because of the methods that we used in the recording. It was a detailed modeling of the songs on every note - before we invited musicians in the studio. What. The term, probably tell you that they are different views on Amsterdam as a collective image of contemporary reality I've been there twice, with an interval of about two years, and seemed to see two different cities. In the first case it was a real nest of vice with shopami Café, Red Light District, and other attributes of this kind: and in my second trip city suddenly opened as a cultural capital with a large number of museums. I thought, Amsterdam - a place where there is a real civilized freedom for citizens and the freedom of thought. These ideas, I tried to translate it into musical form. Poor Grigoryan - Presentation of "Amsterdam" was held six months ago. The success of this album? - One of the songs was very influential charts, and for six months it takes for the leading positions. I think this is a very good result, we have them, to be honest, never had. Another significant moment - the tour schedule. If we his wish announced in support of the album tour, we were invited once in 40 cities. Agree, heavy figure. We have also decided to celebrate an anniversary "crematorium" (this year celebrates 25 years of the group) to push. - Obviously not congratulate, I will ask this question: how hard to keep the team with experience on stage, with such a history, over water in show business? - "Crematorium" never lived under the laws of show business, and I think we were only on the benefits, as well as six years of silence. We're not talking about shouting their presence felt no need to inform themselves somehow, and yet just last year we played 120 concerts. The result was an album that was planning a new tour. Why we still need, as you call it afloat? I think mainly because of the fact that it. Still an audience to the propaganda of the idiocy flows constantly to resist the media, and are looking for a reasonable alternative We have always steadfast in their positions, not aspire to become a consumer product. Better for the 10% - 15% of the population thinks that allow you a dialogue than a grimace, protozoa have before. That is why we celebrate the quarter century. So come to our shows, is the third generation of viewers, as quiet folk song written 20 years ago - because we have tried to create something basic to hunt rather than short-term success. By the way, another controversial aspect of the problem. I would say that in many ways it is helping us online popular among the audience. - Do you think your personal blog? - No, this blog helps only at the end. I once agreed to the proposal of a larger project to run your blog, but then quickly lost interest in the idea. There is an official website, it provides little group, publishes news, but it is not so. I'm talking about, but on the informal, alternative locations, the fans of "Crematorium" are. Certainly glad that the people so familiar, to be fair, tied communication. Plus, they are. For information about us, who are not looking to official sources There are, of course, and the slippery piracy issue, our sales records over the Internet, but I am calm in all this. Let us say, for the first concert of the new program, our fans prepared in many ways came because've heard songs from the album "Amsterdam" - and the audience is much more beautiful and interesting work. - What is the age range of your fans? - I have under $ 50, but I like that people come to my concerts, the 16 to 25 years old and students. You feel very relaxed, and it is very sad that he is the dance floor in the gallery, and stalls filled with prim VIP persons. - Now, many musicians have been going over into the new experiments in style, with the latest trends in Hip-Hop, R'n'V. How justified and necessary is flirting with young people? - I would not flirt with the young. Only life goes on, and it is always a field for experimentation. When you start to combine musical genres - it is simply an attempt to create something new, and not to please fans of this or that direction. Moreover, apart from the styles of music, it is also related arts! For example, if I have the opportunity, I will give a concert in Moscow on a two-level stage, and music "crematorium" will play at the theater, accompanied by a performance in the style of Ionesco. We had a similar experience, when both our concert was a fashion show. So, to sum up, I can say that to date. The "crematorium" There is no love for some drinks and love for cocktails - Not so long ago, we went on a bold experiment - announced a contest for fans of the script for the video. What did the story end? - Yes, yes, this is the video for "Romeo and Juliet". I did not participate in the shooting, but as far as I know, there should be some incredibly gory scene: the heroine, it will cut with a scalpel ... Now beat the actor, the surgeon, scalpel suddenly fell, the girl was playing in the femoral artery, she was taken to the hospital, and the shooting stopped. Honestly, at first I was against this idea, I think that "Romeo and Juliet" more romantic song, but the director says. So now we are waiting for the results of the whole story. - Finally, I would like to ask two basic questions: do not live more rock 'n' roll, and where has that young children who wipe the face of the earth? - Let's start with the second question. So much of punks, but it's not in Moscow, not even in St. Petersburg and in the periphery. We often bring their demos are very talented guys, sometimes we are taking and to get warm, but also in the provinces. Unfortunately it is very difficult - no studios, no interest to the public, and many have not been able to escape from their provincial bonds. So that the children can not yet there, but for us, wipe the surface of the earth. - What about the death of rock and roll? - The music will continue to evolve, there will be new species, it was and always will be. Another thing that has always been the music for thinking people and endless clones contrast to "American Idol". All who have come from there, forget quickly, it's just an inflatable doll. And this inevitably remain. - At the end of our conversation, I would like to start the program of the Jubilee Concerts "crematorium" know. - Actually, the date of 28 November, we will celebrate in Moscow, while we do not. We begin, as it were, from the roots in the city, thanks to the influence of the rock culture is especially Mike Naumenko and saw the birth of "Crematorium". December sixth anniversary concert in St. Petersburg instead, take in DC "Leningrad Soviet," and this holiday is for one year. And then, I hope, open after repair our home, "Rump" and we will give a concert there.
