It's a nice find, shame there isn't much merchandise preserved from the band - the shirt is really cool!!

When you look into the history of the front man Yuri Hoi there's a lot of interesting trivia to discover, some of the songs written by him are even self reflecting. Overall my favorite Soviet/Russian post punk band.

This is great, my most unexpected shirt of the month for sure! I was laughing my ass off at their punk-opera from 1994, actually very immature stuff but I heard it as a teenager, so it was incredibly funny then. Still must have a tape copy of it somewhere along with other old tapes I think.

Kashei the immortal on tape? That's worth a lot nowadays since distribution was only in small copies in russia. Yeah most of How's text were filled with profanity and all that especially in Kashei the immortal, but then there are songs like "Lirika" which are just beautiful, they even toured here in germany in the 90s and their cds were distributed here by a german music agency that I forgot the name of. I got a shirt somewhere flying around too that was recently printed, I'll add it to the site later today. Good on you for knowing about Sektor too!! Everyone that's into the genre should give them a try

Unfortunately that would be just a dub, not an original. I think I remember it having Slayer's Divine Intervention on the other side. I must find those old dub tapes, as they're essentially my starting point into heavy music in general. All the stuff I now own is thanks to them, I must have misplaced them when moving, but I don't think they're lost. But getting some original Sektor media and merch is a great idea, too, gonna update my Discogs wantlist accordingly! :D

If its one of the dubbed once then I think you have a real treasure!! If you ever find it maybe you could get it digitalized and upload it somewhere, Id even pay money for that. There is still a few lost things published by Sektor just seemingly lost because no one digitized their stuff. Keep me updated sometime, if Ill ever find more original merch Ill let you know too! Awesome battle jacket by the way, Im everyday in Hannover for work as a little trivia fact :D

Thank you! \m/
It's not something I'd take money for, but I'll need to prioritize my music "projects" a bit differently now. I have to find the tapes first (in any case, I have already been wondering several times where they are, so I need to find them for my peace of mind anyway) and then either repair my current tape deck (it's a Dual from the early 90s with known faults that it also started showing this year, unusable right now) or get an even better one for proper tape digitalization. There are also original demo tapes I need to copy before they degrade too much. I'll definitely let you know how this goes, as I wanted to build a digitizing workflow for cassettes sooner or later anyway. I live in Dortmund right now, but have visited Hannover on several occasions, it's been some years since the last time, though.
