Criticism
The album was highly appreciated by such Russian music critics as Guru Ken and Alexey Mazhaev , noting the high hit potential and the lack of pass-through songs on the album [1] [2] . At the same time, Sergei Mezenov noted that the arrangements presented on this disc are more likely to pop - than to rock music , " music on the" Intolerable Lightness of Being "is made exactly according to the principle of generalizations, as wide as possible with musical gestures bolted to the lyrics seemingly very specific sensory experiences " [3] . Music critics compare this album with the work of Zemfira [1] [3] [4] .
