Molchat Doma (Молчат Дома, Russian for 'Houses Are Silent') are a Belarusian Post-Punk and Dark Wave band formed in Minsk in 2017. Despite being Belarusian, all of their songs are in Russian, a language they have confessed to be more comfortable writing and singing in (it's widespread in their country).They're most well known for their Breakthrough Hit album Etazhi (Floors), their second in 2017. This contains by far their most well known song, "Sudno" (Bedpan), a poem set to music about dying in a hospital bed written by a poet who later killed himself. Much of their music features themes and imagery of despair, urban decay, and post-Soviet misery.As you can tell they're a very cheerful band. | |

The Cynic | |
| Molchat Doma (Music) / int_1b70ccc6 | comment |
They're a Russian-speaking Belarusian band, and their music is bleak. Not for nothing are they often referred to as "doomer music". | |

Crapsack World | |
| Molchat Doma (Music) / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: Their music has a heavy emphasis on setting rather than characters; their music creates the impression of a very bleak, funeral setting, reflecting the band's apparent view of Post-Soviet Europe. | |

Why We Are Bummed: Communism Fell | |
| Molchat Doma (Music) / int_67b24bc8 | comment |
Why We Are Bummed Communism Fell: The miserable atmosphere of Post-Soviet Eastern Bloc states permeates all the imagery and themes of their music; however, based on their album covers' nightmarish presentation of old Soviet buildings, it's hard to argue they really present extant communist nations as utopian either. | |

Russian Guy Suffers Most | |
| Molchat Doma (Music) / int_6ada388a | comment |
Russian Guy Suffers Most: They're a Russian-speaking Belarusian band, and their music is bleak. Not for nothing are they often referred to as "doomer music". "Toska" takes its name from the Russian meaning/perception of misery as once exemplified by Anton Chekhov in a short story. | |

Driven to Suicide: Boris Ryzhy, the poet who wrote the lyrics to "Sudno". Knowing this makes the song invokedeven eerier than it already is. | |

Break-Up Song: "Toska" sounds like one, with the man wanting to see 'Toska' (misery, which is personified here) go, asking 'her' to give the keys back etc. | |

Idiosyncratic Cover Art | |
| Molchat Doma (Music) / int_ddbbcf6a | comment |
Idiosyncratic Cover Art: All of their albums are dreary-looking pictures of strikingly oppressive - or perhaps strangely beautiful - buildings built by communist regimes: The cover of С крыш наших домов shows the infamously incomplete Ryugyong Hotel in North Korea. The cover of Ðтажи shows the Hotel Panorama in Slovakia. The cover of Монумент shows the Monument to Party Founding, also in North Korea, with the ground changed to crashing waves and the Korean text on the plinth edited to show the album name. | |
