The single "I am with you" ex-leader of the group "cockroaches!" Dmitry Spirin disappeared from VK music. The message about this appeared in the official Instagram account of the group.

“Today we found that Dmitry Spirin Maxi-Single“ I was with you ”disappeared from VK music, and the artist’s card itself was unavailable. Several propaganda Telegram channels were written about the release of Dmitry, after which “cancellation” began. The musician was not found? They were poorly searched - Dmitry Spirin is on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music and other streaming platforms, ”the report said.

The former leader of the Tarakana group has repeatedly declared its anti -war position, and also acted with a sharp criticism of the Kremlin in an interview and in his work.

Spirin, among other artists, spoke in an interview with The Insider against the war shortly before the beginning of a full -scale invasion of Ukraine.

“As for me, war is impossible not only between Russians and Ukrainians, but between any peoples. Because the wars, in principle, should go into the past, since we managed to get nuclear weapons. Well, in the 21st century, you need to be able to negotiate, and not scare the war and violence, worse than the most flawed gopota in the area. ”

In April 2022, the founder of "cockroaches!" He stated that he was dissolving the group after mass cancellation of concerts in Russia. After that, he left Russia. The musician said that because of the war in Ukraine, he could no longer continue musical activities. “If all the previous life and previous songs ended with the fact that Russian missiles attack Ukrainian cities, why is this music needed?” He said in an interview with Novaya Gazeta Europe.

In addition, Spirin was a supporter of Alexei Navalny and repeatedly supported the politician.

In February 2021, Spirin involuntarily became the reason for the arrest of the editor -in -chief of the Mediazone Sergey Smirnov. Then the police detained the journalist while walking. Investigators saw calls for protests in Retvit jokes about the similarity of a journalist with the leader of the Tarakans! "Group. In the photo of the repost was Dmitry Spirin with a dick of Navalny’s headquarters and the date of the rally.

As Spirin said in an interview, his misunderstanding with the fans of the group began nine years ago, a year after the occupation of Crimea.

“It began in 2015, when we played an anti-war set at the invasion festival.” Even then, it turned out that a significant part of the fanbase does not share our views. I lived with this for seven years, broadcasting my thoughts about completely different things: from the need to vaccinate to the support of Navalny. And each time he received such a wave of Hayt, which simply threw it into a dumb. I can’t interact with this audience anymore, it is unbearable to me that our fans are considered by people who support the war, ”he said.

In October 2023, Dmitry Spirin became a guest of the episode of the podcast The Insider "Honestly" with Xenia Larina. He shared his opinion about when the transformation of Russian society began, why some punks and rockers turned out to be people with slave thinking and whether the Z-culture is able to create something worthwhile.
