Music?


I'm guessing this isn't a particularly highly travelled message board, in the case someone actually does read this, could anyone tell me the name of the band featured in this movie?
I'm American, and I only saw the film with subtitles, but I thoroughly enjoyed the music, although I couldn't understand a word of it. I know the subtitles called the band Nautilus, but I wasn't sure if that was their name in Russian, or if it was in fact just a stage name used for this movie. Could anyone help me out here?

The name of the band is Nautilus pompilius

is a page where you can read more about it. It's amateur but the only site I could find on the band in english.

The albums mentioned in the movie are real.

Krilya (you can listen to a low quality preview on the site)

As it was said by others, it's really Nautilus Pompilius, a cult russian rock band, which is sadly no more :(. Though its' leader Vyacheslav Butusov is as creative as ever and is rocking with Yu-Peter ;).

If you are interested in exact songs, I can send them via email... Guess it doesn't make much difference since band is gone already.

Yes, the band Nautilus is authentic, as are the albumn names. 'Yablokitaij' came out at about around the time this movie was made, it was their last. Butusov went solo shortly after Brat-2. The cult-following is based mostly around the lyrics, very poetic, so unfortunately, their western appeal is limited. Side note, does any one else take issue with the user comment on this film? I think this is the same guy who commented on Balabanov's '02 film "The War" because he also recommended freaks and men. I think the comment is very one-dimensional and shallow. First of all, the lead acting is absolutely brilliant on many levels. S. Bodrov's charachter excellently complements the film's recurring theme of nationalism and possibly xenophobia, which coincidentally is bound together by the musical accompaniment. Nautilus is Danila's favorite band because of its poeticism and esoteric lyrics, and he makes his distaste of western club music well known. This was more than a film that shocked and amazed the late-90s Russian audience with its uniqueness. It eloquently displays the clash of Russian nationalism and western cultural import in post-soviet society, using the backdrop of Peter's city, the "Window on the West." Danila and Viktor take their place in a long tradition of family ties and obligation portrayed in Soviet/Russian cinema. Their brotherly relationship makes special nod to that in the perestroika film "Burglar" of '88, with brothers standing by each other in crime among all other things. I will be the first to admit that a lack of interest in Russian culture will not lead to love for this film, or any of Balabanov's in my opinion, but for all the things that this film is, those who may be intersted in it should be aware. The Englander's statement to the effect that some aspects of the film are painful for western eyes is invalid, as an American with limited Russian language and knowledge of culture, it appeals to me a great deal more so than many more well produced Russian or Soviet films. Sorry for the rant, should have started my own topic, but I'm too busy fighting adware at 6 in the morning.

I know this is a little bit of topic, but if you liked the music in first Brat-then you should also listen to Splin (or spleen, im not sure how to spell it in english) really great stuff and in my opinion a lot better than Nautilus. But i guess thats just me-and if it needs more convincing then the main title song for Brat 2 was Spleen's and they used a crapload of more of their songs for the second movie. Anyways-you could always try to download some of their Songs of Kazaa or some russian mp3 sites. The song that you most likely would enjoy is "linia zhizni" (life line), also if you are starting to listen to the band i would reccommend the album "25 kadr" (25th frame), great stuff, after u get used to it u can listen to some of their older stuff. Anyways sory for taking so much space-but the band is pretty great trust me-I wouldnt be afraid of saying that its in the top 5 russian bands right now.

P.S. (Edit) Just for people who might get angry for me giving a lot of props to spleen-I have actually watched the movie again, and to my surpirse discovered the song i was talking about not the main theme. Nonetheless that is the song that I remembered most, and i wasnt even listening to spleen at that time. Anyways, nevermind the mistake spleen is a great band.

The full name of the band is NAUTILUS POMPILIUS, leading vocalist is Vyacheslav Butusov. He has made his solo career now and this band is rather popular in the Post Soviet Countries even now.
I like their songs a lot and my favourite one is "Gde Tvoi Krylya?" which is translated as "Where are your wings?" Bodrov was singing it out before going to save his brother Tatarin in the first movie.
