The Russian Monty Python is called N.O.M.
« on: June 21, 2013, 06:12:59 PM »
After my brief acquaintance with the Monty Python, I suddenly stumbled upon this hilarious Russian song, and still cannot stop laughing at it.
 

 
 
N.O.M. stands for Neforma′lnoye objedine′nie molodio′zhi - The Informal Youth Association - an experimental rock band. It is known for its highly eclectic avant-garde mix of art0rock, folklore, classical influences (including occasional bouts of operatic singing), innovative arrangements, and theatrical stage shows. 
The band’s most striking feature has always been highly literary (somewhat baffling, occasionally offensive but always hilarious) lyrics which according to one source, continued “the tradition of Russian surrealism and absurdism which was made famous by authors like Nikolai Gogol and Daniil Harms. NOM songs’ characters were being compared to those of E. T. A. Hoffmann and Zoshchenko.
