The Riots is a Russian band formed in 2009. Heavily inspired by British culture, music and fashion, their mission is to promote mod culture through their music, both in Russia and abroad.

They achieved substantial success under their previous name; The White Trainers Community with the releases: his Town' EP, he Long Play' LP and odern Boys' 7" single, but logistical pressures led to a premature end to a band on the verge of big things.

But the boys simply couldn't live without music and reformed with their new name and renewed energy, quickly finding an eager audience amongst a youth very disillusioned with Russian music.

All good bands have an interesting back story, and for The Riots it all started a long time before the band was formed.

Three mates from Perm, an industrial city in Urals, being heavily addicted to almost everything connected with Britain, decided to go and find inspiration in London.

They found what they wanted. They described coming to England as coming back home, and on their return to Russia they felt compelled to form a new band in order to realize their experience in music.

The future is bright for The Riots. After releasing a few singles on their label "Time For Action Records" and another single on the Hamburg based label "CopaseDisques", the boys went on a small tour around Germany and released its debut LP "Time For Truth" (which has been SOLD OUT within two months) on the 6th March 2013 on "Time For Action Records".

In March 2013 The Riots had a 18 dates European tour through Germany, France, Austria and Switzerland during which they recorded 4 new tracks at the magnificent "Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! studios" in Hamburg.

Two of them were released as a ne Seven Wonders' 7? on "Time For Action Records" in 2013.

They also had a Japanese release of the album on cd on the 15th of May 2013. They also had two digital releases in 2014 - ar' and owers Of London'.

Now the guys working on the new material which they plan to release later this year. After a reissue of der debut album and the 10'' EP ,Take No Prisoners" released on the German label Kidnap Music in 2015, they go on with the brandnew EP ,Now Or Never" - also on Kidnap Music.

The boys now intend to conquer the world with their music. take note..and find The Riots, before they find you.? ?"The Riots are one of the most exciting Mod bands I have heard in years" - Pete Mitchell (Absolute Radio).?"These modern boys are the spirit of a 17 year old Paul Weller unleashed on the streets of Moscow" - Stephen Hughes (The Mod Generation).?"The Riots hands down are THE best mod/pop rock band on the planet right now (and believe me, I listen to them ALL!).?Style, soul, aggression, amazing guitar work and the key element that separates these guys from the pack.songwriting skills that stand up to anything Weller and Marriott churned out in their prime" - Warren Peace (DJ/host of the "We Are The Mods" Radio Show).?"The Libertines meets the Jam with powerful distorted guitars" - Matchbox Radio 24.?"Passion and attitude.

The Riots have them both in abundance. I've been listening to their music a lot recently and it warms my heart! The promise of a better future is out there..onwards and upwards!" - Terry Shaughnessy of The Universal.
