Molchat Doma (translated as “Houses Are Silent”), founded in 2017 in Minsk, Belarus, stands at the intersection of post-punk, new-wave and synth-pop. Dark yet danceable, and with a heavy dose of goth ethos, their music is reminiscent of the masters that predate them, but make no mistake: Molchat Doma creates a sound and meaning that is immediately recognizable as all their own.  

The band is comprised of Egor Shkutko, who sings the Russian lyrics in his deep monotone, Roman Komogortsev on guitar, synths, and drum machine, and Pavel Kozlov on bass and synths.  

They self-released their first album, S krysh nashikh domov (С крыш наших домов, 'From The Roofs of Our Houses') in 2017 and later released their second album, Etazhi (Этажи, 'Floors') in 2018. After gaining popularity worldwide, they signed to American independent label Sacred Bones Records in 2020, who reissued their albums, marking their first releases in North America. The song “Sudno” doesn’t leave the global top viral on Spotify since April 2020. 

Their third studio album, Monument (Монумент), was released on 13 November 2020. 

Despite playing to packed clubs no matter whether it's in London, New York, Warsaw, Los Angeles, Helsinki, Belgrad, or Berlin.
