| The Leningrad Cowboys is a Finnish rock and roll band famous for its humorous songs and concerts featuring the Soviet Red Army Choir. |
Currently, the band has eleven Cowboys and two Leningrad Ladies. The songs, all somewhat influenced by polka and progressive rock, and performed in English, have themes such as 'vodka', 'tractors', 'rockets', and 'Genghis Khan', as well as folkloric Russian songs, rock and roll ballads and covers from bands as diverse as The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, and Lynyrd Skynyrd, all with lots of humour.

 I would say their irony value in Russia is morbidly low. |

Wow I always thought these guys were Japanese. I remember their video "Leningrad Cowboys go American".

And Finns singing with the Red Army. That's burying some major Paul Bunyan sized hatchets. |
