Razbliuto! is the debut album of South African glitch-electronica band Lark.[1] It was produced by Paul Ressel, and released in August 2006 on Just Music. The album art was designed by Nigel Moore, with sleeve photography by Natasja Fourie.[2]
The album received much praise from critics, and won Best Alternative Album at the 13th South African Music Awards in 2007.[3] The music critic, Marcus Louw, remarked that the album's strength "lies in the way in which Lark manage to be quite adventurous and experimental while still remaining accessible".[4] In the Cape Argus, Evan Milton described the album as "densely layered and delectably dark"[5] The American podcast, Nonstuff, proclaimed that "Lark’s presence in Cape Town is certain to make us take notice".[6]
The album's name is a reference to a long-running hoax of a Russian word, that purportedly cannot be translated into the English language. In reality this word does not exist in the Russian language.[7]
