Antytila: The Ukrainian rock band who fight on the front line against Russia
Subject line stolen from this piece from the BBC, although I am sure I have posted about them before:
~
I previously posted about the group here, but this time I will post two inter-connected songs, originally released 4 years ago.
The first one is in Ukrainian and has no subtitles, but it doesn't really need it - it's a very happy upbeat song and video and the title 'Catch the moment' really captures it:
Aнтитіла - Лови момент / Catch the moment / Official Video
The follow-up song/video 'Hello' (the videos inter-link) has now been re-released in a new English-language version:
ANTYTILA - HELLO / English Official Video
From youtube:
The plot [of 'Hello'] is based on a post-apocalyptic story and a continuation of the storyline of the clip for the song "Сatch the Moment", where the main characters encounter a nuclear explosion in the picturesque Ukrainian mountains - the Carpathians. The protagonist returns to the Earth after a nuclear apocalypse to check if the planet is suitable for life.
The English version of the song Hello was created at the same time with Ukrainian. It was created with our foreign friends and colleagues Piotr “Dziki” Hancewicz, Łukasz Rychlicki, Grzegorz Stech, Oles Kalmuk. And in the beginning the main idea was about planet Earth. This is our home and we need to protect it. But new reality gave us new senses. And through the war we changed lyric, right on the frontline where we have lived all emotions of this period.
And now the song and the music video take on completely different meanings, which we want to share with the world. This song should say the loudest words about peace, and about the irreversible consequences that war will cause if humanity does not stop. With the deep conviction that this experience is close to every person on our planet, to every person who wants life to overcome the death. We wrote this song as an appeal to humanity. And we are sure that humanity will hear it.
In August 2022, the song will feature in BBC International Service documentary about Antytila and the war in Ukraine “Frontline – Frontmen”. The film will be released on the special iPlayer platform, as well as on the BBC News channel.

They also added the lyrics on youtube.
In short, I love this band, their music is great! And their personal story is now incredible.
