''[[Ariya'']] (rus. АРИЯ) is the first Russian [[Heavy Metal]] band. It plays unapologetic old school [[Heavy Metal]] (more precisely, New Wave British Heavy Metal), often compared to [[Iron Maiden]]. It's quite popular among Russian youth subcultures.
 
The band members:
Line 11:
* Maxim Udalov: the drummer. This guy comes and goes. He was in the band during its very beginning in the 1980s, then left, then joined again. In between, the drummer role was filled by Alexander Manyakin.

Albums:
 
* ''Megalomania'' and ''Who Are You With?'': the unapologetic old school heavy metal. The lyrics were written by Alexander Yelin, whose pet peeve for the time was nuclear war, so these albums are full of anti-war protest songs.
* ''Hero of Asphalt'' and ''Playing with Fire'': these albums of the late 1980s were similar to the two previous ones, but they changed their poet: the lyrics were written by Margarita Pushkina and full of bikerism and supernatural symbolism.
* ''Blood for Blood'': the darkest album of this band. Contains congs about zombies, Antichrist, the afterlife, Pontius Pilate and the apocalyptic riders. Oh so full of evil imagery. The schoolboys approve.
* ''Night is Shorter than Day'', ''Generator of Evil'', ''Chimera''
