Voskreseniye (Template:Lang-ru) is a Russian rock band.

History

The band was formed in 1979, when drummer Sergey Kavagoe decided to leave Mashina Vremeni and form his own group. Kavagoe was joined by Mashina Vremeni's bassist, Evgeny Margulis. Alexey Romanov became the group's leader and songwriter, and Alexey Makarevich joined as guitarist.[1] During this period the band released the successful albums Voskreseniye 1 (Template:Lang-ru) and Voskreseniye 2 (Template:Lang-ru). In 1980, Margulis left the group, after being invited to join the group Araks, and Konstantin Nikolsky, Andrey Sapunov, and Mikhail Shevyakov joined the line-up.[2][3] In August 1982, Romanov and the group's sound engineer, Alexander Arutyunov, were arrested and charged with private entrepreneurial activity.[3] The band went on a hiatus from 1982 to 1994, and former members played in several other groups.

Romanov, Sapunov, Nikolsky, and Shevyakov reunited in 1989 to play at the Druzhba arena in a concert celebrating the group's tenth anniversary.[3] The group officially reformed in 1994, performing on March 12 with a line-up of Romanov, Sapunov, Nikolsky, and Shevyakov, with Nikolsky serving as the group's leader. Nikolsky left the group shortly afterwards, due to creative differences, and Romanov asked Margulis to rejoin.[3] Voskreseniye performed its first concert with this new line-up in St. Petersburg on May 1, sharing the bill with Cruise.[3] In 2001, they released a new album, called Vse Snachala (Template:Lang-ru), which contained re-recordings of old songs. In 2003, the band released a new album with new songs called Ne Toropyas (Template:Lang-ru).
