Zwyntar
ZWYNTAR has existed since 2014 and is known as the first major Ukrainian dark country project, although the band's style has long expanded beyond the boundaries of a single genre. The central themes of their music are life and death, sin and redemption, and the connection between the earthly and the supernatural. The band’s discography includes several singles and music videos, two EPs, and two full-length albums, both of which were also released on vinyl. ZWYNTAR has performed at major Ukrainian festivals, including Faine Misto, Taras Bulba Festival, Zakhidfest, Comic Con Ukraine, and Respublica FEST. A selection of their tracks was also included in the official soundtrack of the video game S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl. Among the band's best-known songs are Mexikanets, Choven, Dance and Drink, Do Not Trust Mortals, Bats, and Swamp. In 2024, the band released the charity collaboration single and music video Gold and Blue together with the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade. In 2025, they released the EP On the Other Side of the River. The band has also been shortlisted multiple times for Ukrainian music awards, including LiRoom Music Awards and YUNA.
