Formed in Moscow, Russia in 2013, the duo that is IC3PEAK has spent the last decade evolving through their own unique musical journey that draws from all across dance, pop, rap, folk, and rock spectrums. Vocalist Anastasia Kreslina and producer Nikolay Kostilev’s gothic style and ambiguous yet distinct aesthetic has been spearheaded by a multi-lingual lyrical fire that has seen them accused by the state of distributing “subversive materials”, with the suppression of their live performances by Russian security forces having having only served to sharpen the band’s political criticisms and widen their global notoriety.
The band consider their 8th album, this year’s ‘Coming Home’, to be perhaps their most radical yet - turning instead to focus on the inner turmoil that has long run concurrent to their political slogans and protest music. Feeling unsafe in Russia, and with a relentless global touring schedule, their sense of displacement was exacerbated by the horrors of the ongoing Ukrainian war, and ultimately led to the group relocating to Ana’s place of birth in Riga, Latvia. Turning inward to speak softly as opposed to outwardly screaming, ‘Coming Home’ unfolds as a narrative that explores themes of loss, love, identity and belonging in a way that stands polarized in comparison to their more aggressive past, but is in no way less daring and radical.
Having visited in 2019 to perform at Dark Mofo, October 2025 will see IC3PEAK return for their first full scale Australian headline shows.
