Tsoi is not with us, but Tsoi is alive, and "KINO" confidently stepped with us into 2022... And now, as never before, it is necessary to remind what Victor thought and said on these or those issues, and to familiarize the new generation of people with a wide range of topics and problems that concerned the leader of the band "KINO" in that already distant, but nevertheless so close to us time". Vitaly Kalgin, contributing author Vitaly Kalgin is a Russian journalist, musician, writer and music critic, researcher of Viktor Tsoi and the band "Kino". During the period from 2010 to 2022, Kalgin authored a dozen books about Viktor Tsoi and the group "KINO", which, according to journalist Yevgeny Y.
