Leniniana is the twelfth[3] studio album of the Soviet conceptual band Kommunizm. It is a sound collage based on the phonogram of the film Lenin in October, published on a gramophone record by the Melodiya company. Yegor Letov and Konstantin Ryabinov glued inserts together, they played various musical compositions backwards and added third-party records from the field of concrete music, thereby creating a montage mystifying the personality of Vladimir Ilyich Lenin in a humorous manner.
The album was officially released on Caravan Records and HOR in 2001,[4] and it was reissued on April 22, 2013 by Wyrgorod.[5]
