vulgar molly
Having found like-minded people, Kirill gathers a group, but it remains up to the name and songwriting. He solved the first problem by naming the group " vulgar molly"- as Cyril himself explains: Vulgar Molly is a generalized image of today's youth on the example of one girl whose name is - vulgar molly.

In early 2017, the group released a new song - " Vulgar Molly - Supermarket»

Since the Vulgar Molly is dominated by a female audience of listeners, many fans of Kirill Bledny are wondering: "Does Kirill Bledny have a girlfriend?", Cyril himself does not give any comments on this topic, since he does not like to make his personal life public. The novel attributed by Kirill's fans with Yana Kryukova is just an invention of admirers, nothing more.
A family
Kirill Timoshenko has a sister, Daria Timoshenko, who works as a model in New York.

vulgar molly now
A year after the release of the first album: “8 Ways to Quit Fucking,” the group releases their second studio album on January 30, called The album includes 6 tracks that differ significantly in their sound from the first disc, but the themes of the tracks close to modern youth have remained unchanged .
Last night, January 29, a new release by the Ukrainian rock band Vulgar Molly appeared on the Web - the EP Sad Girl with Dog Eyes, a continuation of the album 8 Ways to Stop Masturbating, released a year ago, made according to similar patterns. The Village listened to the six-track recording and identified its main components.
"Ep to Apple Music"
They had been waiting for new material from the group for a long time: “Vulgar Molly” began to play new songs at summer concerts, demos began to appear on the Web, and when the big solo concert in Moscow was postponed from November to February, citing the unavailability of the new concert program, everything finally fell into place. their places. The release came out with strange circumstances: “A sad girl with eyes like a dog” appeared on Apple Music late on Monday, January 29, and only a couple of hours later, in a 250,000-strong public group, a concise entry was published: “The new epoch-making ep is already in Apple Music ". In iTunes, the new release is dated January 12 and is signed to the major label Warner Music Russia. Perhaps this explains why the group, whose collective image of the listener is a schoolgirl, releases a release exclusively on the Apple Music subscription platform, without even trying to participate in the VK repost race (the senselessness of which, however, was proved by the current champion - rapper Lizer, who ended up on first place, mobilizing every possible means, including dozens of pages with suspicious names lizer1, lizer2, and so on).
Sound
"Vulgar Molly" plays the same cheerful pop-punk, seasoned with epileptic drum machine rhythms and disturbing synths. The latter are twisted so much here that they almost drown out the vocals - not the most obvious approach to mixing. Given that the releases of famous punks are now handled by a major label, the roughness of the sound and obvious mistakes in mixing becomes much more difficult to forgive. There is also a production decision dictated by fashion: Kirill Bledny's voice on several tracks was processed with auto-tuning. Even if this is an extremely ironic move, it turned out to be interesting: the high voice of a thin 20-year-old soloist, on which a sweatshirt hangs like a bag, now remotely resembles a polished R&B hedonist pouring a bottle of cognac on his emotional trauma.
Popularity and self-irony
"Naughty Molly" does not give interviews - at least, this is how the group's manager responded to several requests made at different times. An exception to the rule is the disastrous in its absurd appearance of Kharkiv residents in the show of the Big Russian Boss, where Pale with a nervous laugh tried to explain to the host why he always wears a hat: “I have cancer ...” Considering how popular “Vulgar Molly” has achieved in exactly one year since the release of the album “8 Ways to Stop Jerk Off”, the next logical step would be the appearance of Pale opposite Yuri Dudya, who, with a manic smile from ear to ear, would ask another young star intoxicated with fame about masturbation and the maximum number of groupies during sex.
The theme of popularity is one of the fundamental ones in the new EP. The text of the track “Everyone wants to kiss me”, perhaps the main action movie of the release, resembles the straightforward rhymes of LJ’s next hit, which, however, legitimize self-irony: “Jumped into the crowd, no one caught, / And your boyfriend didn’t even try.” Similarly, the song that follows is saved by the line "her pussy reminds me of flowers of paradise" - in a society that still seems to be a successful maneuver, this form of chanting the female body. The outcome is predictable: in the comments, even the fans of the group, who, it would seem, should not be so conservative, are outraged: “They ruined such a song!”
A more experimental approach to understanding the status of a rock star is the song "Glass", in which Pale, with a bipolar characteristic of a teenager, talks about his life "behind the glass", that is, in the media space. The glass here is the walls of the metaphorical bong of his fan - perhaps the same Vulgar Molly, that is, her collective image. Having achieved popularity, the 20-year-old artist regrets his childhood dream, struggling to cope with the side effects of fame. But he does not lose heart, the escape plan “to the other side of the glass” has already been thought up: to get into the brain of a fan, and then escape “through a tampon”.
A party
By the middle of the EP, the band is in their comfort zone: literally at a "typical pool party". But this is more likely not a fit in the post-Soviet space, but a solid Linklater and the dreams of American teenagers: if you can still believe in an emo girl who is in love with the captain of a football team, then there is a pool in which the hero, without taking off his clothes, “jumps in hope for sex," in Khrushchev's apartment, no. Maximum - in a rented cottage outside the unidentified hero city.
5 examples of poetry characteristic of "Naughty Molly" from the new release
"Hey, ks-ks, kick your feet,
I will follow you on instagram "Everyone wants to kiss me")
"I change into my grandmother's dress,
Baby emo girl takes pictures of me on a mobile phone ”( )
"Fifteen-year-old washcloths
Shouts were shouting everywhere" ( "Everyone wants to kiss me")
"Give me a paw, let's go -
We'll bulge out at a strange party with a bum" ( "I'll be your dog")
"And the queen of the school fell from the sky into the toilet -
It was I who poisoned her booze so that she would not laugh with us "( "Typical pool party")
Self-referencing, drugs and rap
The name of the EP, according to fan guesses, is a comment about Yana Kryukova, a Ukrainian model, the prototype of Vulgar Molly from the clip " Your sister's favorite song". Similarly, the new release is filled with references to his own work: the text of the very first song refers to the unreleased " School is not needed”, in the second, the same feds from the track “My baby doesn’t know” appear, who are unhappy with the line about glue from the song “Hannamontana” and want to ban the group’s concert. Perhaps, believing in the reality of such a scenario (another hero of youth - the rapper Face - has repeatedly fallen under the sanctions of conservative officials and mothers of his listeners), compared to "8 Ways ..." drugs are presented here a little more veiled (not counting, of course, the chorus “Flowers of Paradise”): there is not much hair dryer here, but at some point the soloist Vulgar Molly ingeniously promises to “fly to you on his personalized star.” In the same song there is a line “My new girlfriend is three times better than you” - exactly the same number of times the track “Non-stop” from the first album turned out to be cooler than your first sex partner, and in the last track the main question of the song “Supermarket” is quoted - "Well, then what"? There are no "sker-sker" ad-libs from the same song, but Paleny's long-time fascination with the ubiquitous hip-hop (according to him, he actively read in 2007) is still visible on the release: at the end of "Typical Pool Party", he announces "typical Nicki Minaj's verse" - and starts spitting a clip of unintelligible words with the root "fuck" into the microphone.
The youth group from Ukraine "Vulgar Molly" took off from complete obscurity to the heights of popularity in a year. Without participation in TV shows, without promotion by eminent producers, without financial injections, the group gathers thousands of spectators in concert halls in Ukraine and Russia. And this is not a fleeting success. "Generation of social networks" creates its idols, supporting them with likes and reposts.
Compound
The founder of the Vulgar Molly group, frontman, author of music and lyrics is Kirill Timoshenko, better known by his pseudonym. The rest of the trio is changing so quickly that the guys do not even have time to work together. Model Yana Kryukova starred in the first clip of the group, Valeria Karaman, Ivan Voronenko were added to her in the second.
Kirill was born on March 31, 1997 in the city of Zmiev, Kharkov region. There is little entertainment in the provincial regional center, so the peers of the future musician spent time on the street in the company of friends. Cyril listened to a variety of music, not always remembering the names of groups and the names of musicians. Therefore, now in his work, fans find references to songs of various genres.
Kirill believes that he was particularly influenced by Bring Me the Horizon, Mindless Self Indulgence. The teenager rapped about criminal showdowns, writing it down on his phone, and waited for his voice to break down and become an adult. But then he realized that he wanted to play rock in his band, and took up the guitar. In parallel, he continued to try everything that was available.
The nickname "Pale", which later became a stage name, Kirill earned at the age of 14, when he first tried marijuana and had a pale appearance. In the songs of "Naughty Molly" drugs and the negative consequences of taking them are often mentioned. After school, the parents sent the young man to study at a technical school, but Cyril's studies were limited to the transfer of money for education by the teacher, so the student soon gave up a useless lesson and focused on creativity.
And who is this Molly, after whom the group is named? This is a collective image of Kirill's target audience: a fifteen-year-old schoolgirl who already wants to try adult life, but is not yet able to. Obedient teenagers dream about the drive of night discos, about hot sex after - and they get these dreams voiced in the songs of "Vulgar Molly". 35 years ago he sang "Eighth Grader":
Mom's lipstick, big sister's boots. It’s easy for me to be with you, and you are proud of me…”.
Vulgar Molly is the same schoolgirl, but from the 21st century.
Music
On February 14, 2016, Cyril posted on the Internet the first song "Your Sister's Favorite Song", which quickly became a hit. The second single released to the court of users "In contact with", bore the mysterious name "TMSTS". The abbreviation is deciphered in the text: "Your little sister is so-and-so." Funny songs about eternal teenage problems "clung" listeners.
In October, the single "Hannah Montana" is released, and the group gives a concert for the first time at a local club. There are 20 people at the stage, three-quarters of the audience are Kirill's friends who came to gawk at the show. Little by little, Kirill gains experience and understanding that his dream of becoming a rock musician is starting to come true. The number of subscribers on YouTube and social networks is growing, people are dancing and singing along at concerts.
Someone dumped the work of "Vulgar Molly" to Gleb, the administrator of the public "Forever 17". Gleb quickly realized that the group would be successful, and not only published compositions in "Forever 17", but also became the manager of the youth team. During the year, Kirill wrote eight songs that were included in the debut mini-album "8 Ways to Stop Masturbating."
To Cyril's surprise, the most popular song on the album was "Non-Stop" - a remix of a song by Reflex. In the version of "Vulgar Molly" the arrangement was completely changed, the verses were rearranged. The romance of protest and disobedience, alcohol, weed and glue - all these things are mixed in Kirill's texts and sound to rhythmic dance melodies.
The style in which the group plays is called indie rock, original pop rock, a mixture of rap, rock and electro music, the album is posted on the Play Market in the "Alternative / Indie" section. The large Rhymes and Punches, MDK, The Flow communities became interested in the album, the publication in which fueled interest in the group. In the summer of 2017, "Vulgar Molly" shot the first video for "Your Sister's Favorite Song", which is loved by teenagers.
On January 30, 2018, the group released the mini-album "Sad girl with eyes like a dog" - it seems that the word "like" has become the hallmark of "Naughty Molly". The solo album, which turned out to be more mature and of high quality, included 6 compositions. The theme of a sad dog is revealed in the text "I will be your dog." The disc, according to the author, is dedicated to a girl whose name he keeps secret.
In February, the third official video “Typical pool party” was filmed, where schoolchildren having fun get drunk, have sex (behind the scenes) and mock one of the participants in the list. Also, videos from the group's concerts have been posted on the Internet, at which Kirill often sings other people's songs - after all, there are still not enough of his own. The track “Everyone wants to kiss me” from the second album was uploaded by a fan as a recording from the concert.
"Naughty Molly" now
In January, the Ukrainian group caused a conflict between Artem Zverev and Yevgeny Gorenburg. Gorenburg invited Vulgar Molly to the Old New Rock festival in Yekaterinburg. And Artem Zverev, the art director of the Dom Pechati nightclub, accused him of duplicity, since Gorenburg recently spoke out against the tour of this group, claiming that the fees of Ukrainians sponsor the war.
Now "Vulgar Molly" is touring Russia. As a real rock band, concerts are accompanied by scandals. On March 4, in Stavropol, the start of the performance was delayed for three hours. Schoolchildren had been waiting for the show since six o'clock in the evening, but they heard the voice of Kirill Bledny only at nine. The concert lasted half an hour, but ended spectacularly: the frontman went into a rage, smashed the equipment and retired backstage.
On March 7, Bledny's interview was posted on the Vdud YouTube channel. In a conversation with a video blogger, the question was raised:
“When you face Putin, what do you say to him?”
In response, the musician fell silent and held the theatrical pause for half a minute. When asked about his personal life, Cyril admitted that he did not participate in group sex.

What's happening?
"Vulgar Molly", like many of the heroes of "VKontakte", appeared as if from nowhere and very quickly began to fill the air of social networks. Over the past week, their debut album "8 Ways to Stop Jerk Off" was written about by both public giants like MDK and thematic resources - "Native Sound", The Flow, "Rhymes and Punches". The public of the group - the main measure of user attention these days - quickly grew to 20 thousand subscribers.
What is known about them?
All Molly's songs are written and sung by Kirill Bledny, a 20-year-old resident of Kharkov. Vulgar Molly, according to him, is a collective image of a schoolgirl, a listener of his songs. He himself says that in his hometown he was recognized only a couple of times, and the hottest concert so far was in Odessa.
Kirill recalls the very first performance as follows: “It was an ordinary “hodgepodge” in a local club. Under the stage I was supported by 20 bodies, 70 percent of which were my friends. Everything was rather dull, people were embarrassed by each other in a half-empty hall. I remember that even then my clothes were not mine. ”
Everything looks different now. “In Kharkiv, we performed in a club for 150 people, we thought it would be a little more,” says Gleb, the group's manager. “As a result, 500 people came, the club was going crazy, another 200 people didn’t fit.”
If you think that this is a local intra-Ukrainian phenomenon, then it is not so: tickets for the first Moscow concert of Molly on March 18 in a small Moscow club China Town Café sold out in a couple of hours. Gleb had to organize another one, on March 8, - and tickets for it were sold out just as quickly.
Why did everything happen so quickly?
Also a typical story for the VKontakte generation. Gleb, the administrator of the public "Forever 17", dedicated to noisy teenage rock, someone dropped the group's songs. A cursory audition was enough for him to identify a new hero in Kirill. “I realized that it would thunder very loudly,” says Gleb, who began to publish the songs of “Vulgar Molly” in public. And the group quickly found listeners.
Why does it work?
8 Ways to Stop Jerk Off, featuring a cartoon girl with her hand in her panties on the cover, is eight songs about a fun-filled but challenging youth. "Your little sister is such a bitch / She wants to sleep with our rock band", "This track makes you stronger, / It's funnier than wheels, and dearer than port wine", "There's action in her house, / Speeds, weed , Playstation".
There is a free punk cover for the Reflex group, a song about spending the night under a bridge and a lot of prickly energy - these songs hit the head like the same port wine taken on an empty stomach. Those who have already listened to "8 Ways" find in the songs of "Molly" references to the bands Hadouken, NRKTK, Klaxons and other noisy bands of ten years ago, who were trying to bring indie rock back to the disco. Although the formula by which Kirill works was also deduced by Viktor Tsoi in the mid-80s: “So what if we are a bit of that? What if we want to dance?"
Is it nostalgic music or modern?
Kirill himself, in his own words, in 2007 "listened to everything - Eminem, Bring Me the Horizon, Mindless Self Indulgence" and "was not an ardent representative of any particular subculture." “In general, in 2007 I was rapping,” he says.
And this is not the first example when the guitars are taken by people who previously listened to rappers and beat beats in Fruity Loops. So Petar Martić, the vocalist of another important group Pasosh for the generation of the Pain festival, before starting a punk project, rapped in the Jump, Pussy band.
It turns out that rock is alive?
“Alive, dead. Who even cares? Cyril answers. “Any genre can be intelligently adapted to the modern trend and presented as something new.”
Ready to look you in the eye on the best day of summer - August 3rd, at Afisha Picnic. The Cure, Pusha-T, Basta, Gruppa Skryptonite, Mura Masa, Eighteen - and this is just the beginning.

It happened very quickly and suddenly. It all started with the fact that Gleb, the administrator of the public "Forever 17" about teenage rock, listened to the songs "Vulgar Molly", which someone threw him.

3. Why did it thunder?
Think for yourself: the group is called "Naughty Molly", the album is called "8 Ways to Stop Jerk Off", on the cover of which a cartoon girl holds her hand in her panties.
