Early Biography
Valery Kipelov was born in 1958 at Kapotnya, Moscow, in Russian SFSR, Soviet Union. During his childhood, he studied at music school as an accordionist. His first step in music was singing in the amateur band 'Krestyanskie Deti' (Farmer Children), which played at parties and weddings. After military service in 1978-1980 Valery joined the folk ensemble 'Shestero Molodykh' (Six Young Men), where he met Nikolay Rastorguev (who went on to form Lubeh). In September 1980 Kipelov and Rastorguev continued their career in 'Leysa, Pyesnya' (Go on, Song). But in 1985 the band was officially disbanded due to failing to complete the planned program, and Valery joined 'Poyushchie Serdtsa' (Singing Hearts), produced by Victor Vekshtein. When Holstinin and Granovsky, members of 'Poyushchie Serdtsa', decided to start their heavy metal project, Valery was invited to be its vocalist.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or biography:
“In early times, before the floods swept across the world, there was life, albeit odd, as one can see from the fossils of mammoth bones, and there was the regime of Prince Metternich.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
“As we approached the log house,... the projecting ends of the logs lapping over each other irregularly several feet at the corners gave it a very rich and picturesque look, far removed from the meanness of weather-boards. It was a very spacious, low building, about eighty feet long, with many large apartments ... a style of architecture not described by Vitruvius, I suspect, though possibly hinted at in the biography of Orpheus.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
