MEANING OF ALBUM IN ENGLISH
"Этажи" (Etazhi) by Molchat Doma is a song in Russian that translates to "Floors" in English. The lyrics describe the different floors of a building, with each floor representing a different stage in the singer's life. The lyrics are introspective and reflect on the emotions and experiences that the singer has gone through. The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "Мы поднимаемся на этажи" (We're climbing the floors), which suggests a sense of progress or moving forward despite the difficulties and challenges that the singer has faced. The overall tone of the song is melancholic, with a sense of nostalgia for the past and a longing for a better future.

I do speak Russian but live for many years in states and never heard of this band. Can't imagine my surprise when my teenage daughter who only speaks English shared her Santa list where she asked vinyl record of Etazhi - Molchat doma. Of course i bought it.. and spent this evening procrastinating to the gorgeous music.

For all the non-Slavs in the comments talking about this sounding like New Order or Joy Division, you have got to check out the Soviet post-punk band Kino, because the influence here is definitely more from Kino (though Kino was heavily influenced by Joy Division, but you can really tell that Kino is the primary reference point here). Go listen to the album "Gruppa Krovi", you'll hear it immediately from the opening track.

Когда слушаешь эту музыку, то начинаешь понимать усталость, которая окружает не только самого себя, но и всех кто жил когда-то в этом мире. Те мечты, то будушее которое вроде бы существует, но за нашими спинами. Можно сказать что балкон на котором мы стоим ,думаем, курим - это и есть тот самый порог между нашими чувствами, желаниями, которые не пересекаются с реальностью

A lot of non-Russian speakers in the comments saying "I don't understand a word of it but I like it" - well, that's exactly how we Russians feel listening for English songs (and songs in any other languages as well)
