The once popular Russian group Boombox took part in the nationalist Banderstat festival in Lutsk in western Ukraine. It is interesting that the musicians also performed their Russian-language hits, which the audience sang along with, although the motto of the festival was “Any language except Russian.”

The leader of the team, Andrei Khlyvnyuk, stated that he was very pleased to perform in front of Bandera’s members. “And the cool Bandera people are in Banderstat. With children, all sober, fierce people,” the musician joked.
One of the headliners of "Bandershtat" was the group "Shadow of the Sun", which played their hit "Sword of Ares" - an informal pagan anthem of the nationalist punitive battalions fighting against the Russians of Donbass.
During the performance of “Shadow of the Sun”, backup dancers came under the stage - young men demonstrating the skills of the combat hopak.
