Where this album fits

- Released in January 1989, 'Zvezda po imeni Solntse' was Kino's final studio album before the untimely death of frontman Viktor Tsoi later that year. At this point in their career, Kino had already achieved significant popularity in the Soviet Union, solidifying their status as icons of the rock movement that emerged during perestroika.
