Kino was a Soviet rock band formed in 1981. They are considered to be one of, if not the greatest rock band in the history of Russian music.[1] Shortly after Viktor Tsoi's passing in a car accident in 1990, the band broke up after releasing their final album. The band had a reunion with concerts planned in fall of 2020, however they were later postponed to 2021 due to COVID-19 pandemic.
