Tonight: Mumiy Troll at the Hawthorne Theater

I`m told Mumiy Troll is the U2 of Russia. I`m told this by a publicist, but I`ve never been to Russia so I`m not going to argue.

Either way, they`ve got an album cover that`s rad. And a publicity shot (left) that`s even better. Their MySpace blog promises «The Mumiy Trolls will talk to Americans about love.» And they`re at the Hawthorne Theater tonight.

They were also a hit at SXSW this year, and the reports are of an extremely entertaining live show.

Here`s a song about … uh … being on tour?
