Soviet Underground cover of Дрянь (1981) by Зоопарк.

"Дрянь" (Dryan) by Зоопарк (Zoopark) is an iconic track written by Mike Naumenko, and is known for its direct and unpolished sound. The song centers on the narrator's aversion to a particular individual, yet its themes of contempt and disenchantment are broad, extending to other figures like world leaders. This universality reflects the wider discontent among Soviet youth in the 1980s, capturing the spirit of a generation confronting a restrictive political and social climate.

Soviet Underground's rendition strives to grasp the essence of "Дрянь" with a contemporary touch, melding the raw, rebellious core of the original track with modern musical elements.
