Who’s there: Kit-I (and also they read like “Keetаi” – “China” on Russian ).

What do you need to know about them: Russian band. Gathered in 2007. Style: pop-rock. They have been sending theis first recorded demo to recording studios, but had all the time answer that this “Unformat”. Later,passing the demo of Max Fadeev (his projects: Глюк’oza, Syeryebro (Silver)) received his support.
Details. Stylish and fashionable. The guys, and clips. Besides the girl on the bass – it always gives bonuses among fans. Everything right: the bassist- girl in sexy stuff and frontman is with make-up. But hard to resist the associations with Tokio Hotel: either because the singer recalls Bill Kaulitz, whether because of all the emo stuff, which has seemed to bacame out of the mainstream scene. Nevertheless – as Max had told to Megabit blog, the Kit-I had the most powerful start among the whole his projects, and attendance of their official website – three million per day. So do emo came back?
