Biting Elbows is a Russian indie rock band that was formed in 2008 in Moscow.
In 2012, they were an opening act for Guns N' Roses and Placebo's concerts in Moscow, played at Maxidrom. In 2013, they played at Park Live Festival.
The band is perhaps best known for its music videos for the songs "The Stampede" and "Bad Motherfucker". The videos, directed by frontman Ilya Naishuller, went viral because of their first person perspective, special effects, and action.[1][2][3] Naishuller directed a full-length first-person action/sci-fi/adventure film written by himself, Hardcore Henry (2015), starring Sharlto Copley and Danila Kozlovsky.[4] Biting Elbows wrote the songs "My Woman" and "For the Kill" for the film's soundtrack, the former being featured in their second album Shorten the Longing which was released in June 26, 2020.
