Back in the Days When Russia Was Cool

...And I'm not talkin' about weather-related tripe, neither!


This great classical music will enhance many of your social activities:
  • bare-knuckle boxing
  • strangling a moose
  • playing soccer with a live grenade
  • skinny-dipping with your love in the Chernobyl reflecting pool
  • cracking coconuts with that furrow between your eyebrows
  • filling a hot-air balloon with your flatulence
  • eviscerating a giraffe with toenail clippings
Yes, this tumultuous music, by turns gentle and turbulent, till take you by the scruff of your neck and either shake you back and forth until your spine snaps; or bear you to safety in a warm cave.

I like it!
