Album Review: Tenkorr’s Будет поздно – A Rock Riot Wrapped in Chaos and Soul
Alright, buckle up, because Tenkorr’s Будет поздно is the kind of album that grabs you by the collar and doesn’t let go until you’re emotionally winded. Released under Russia’s Студия ДДТ label, this rock masterpiece feels like a mixtape from a parallel universe where chaos reigns supreme but somehow still makes sense. It’s raw, unfiltered, and dripping with attitude—basically everything good music should be.
Let’s dive into two tracks that stuck with me harder than an overcooked bowl of spaghetti:
1. Круши все на Х?!
Oh man, this one’s a straight-up adrenaline shot to the heart. The title alone screams “I’m about to lose my mind,” and the song delivers on that promise tenfold. Imagine standing in the middle of a mosh pit while someone yells life advice at you through a megaphone—that’s Круши все на Х?!. The guitar riffs are sharp enough to cut glass, and the vocals have this wild desperation that makes you wanna smash something (preferably not your own stuff). This track is memorable because it’s equal parts reckless and relatable. Who hasn’t wanted to just wreck everything when life gets too heavy? Tenkorr captures that feeling perfectly, without sugarcoating it.
2. Будет поздно
If the first track punches you in the face, this one sneaks up behind you and whispers, “It’s already too late.” Creepy? Yes. Compelling? Absolutely. The pacing is slower here, almost hypnotic, letting the lyrics sink their teeth into your brain. There’s something hauntingly beautiful about how the melody builds tension—it’s like waiting for a storm to hit, knowing there’s no escape. By the time the chorus kicks in, you’re already hooked, questioning all your life choices. Bonus points for the poetic Russian wordplay; even if you don’t speak the language fluently, you can feel the weight of every syllable.
Now, I gotta say, this album isn’t perfect—and honestly, that’s what makes it so damn good. It’s messy, unpredictable, and refuses to fit neatly into any box. Some might call it chaotic; I call it refreshingly human. Listening to Будет поздно feels like eavesdropping on Tenkorr’s inner monologue during a particularly rough day. You get anger, frustration, hope, despair—all served on a platter of killer guitar solos.
Here’s the kicker though: after blasting these tracks on repeat, I started wondering… What if Tenkorr wrote this album as a warning? Like, literally, “It’ll be too late” if we don’t wake up and smell the existential coffee. Or maybe they were just having fun messing with our heads. Either way, mission accomplished.
Final verdict? If you’re into rock music that hits hard and leaves you thinking long after the last note fades, Будет поздно is worth every second of your time. Just don’t blame me if you end up smashing things or staring out windows pondering the meaning of life. That’s on you.
P.S. Side effect may include sudden urges to learn Russian. Proceed with caution.
