Style
Since the formation of the collective, its members have decided to adhere to strict rules of the chosen line of behavior in creativity and in its implementation. Any attempts to use the name of the collective for dishonest earnings were denied. The organizers of the group's performances were required to prevent photos and videos that were not approved by the band. If this condition was not met, the concert was stopped and the blame for the failure of the concert fell on the organizers.[13] However, this faded into the background over time, as every second viewer had a phone with a photo and video camera with them. During the entire period of creativity, the group did not shoot a single video clip.[14]
There was a specific dress style of members – leather jacket, trousers, black shoes. This style was picked before the black color features of the listener to fully comprehend of lyrics more than colorful clothes distracting of poetry.[15]
