A number of interesting articles regarding the Centenary of the Russian Revolution have been published. Below are a couple of links to the better ones we’ve found, including this visual anthology from American strategic forecast company, STRATFOR: https://worldview.stratfor.com/article/100th-anniversary-russian-revolution-visual-anthology

The English translation to the words of the song 'Revolution' by DDT:

Two fingers up – that’s victory!
And that’s – two fingers in the eyes.
We fight to the death on Tuesday for Wednesday,
But we do not understand Thursday. [0:28]
CHORUS
Is this world what we would like it to be? NO!
Do we believe that we can change it? YES!
But … Revolution, you taught us 
To believe in the injustice of good.
How many worlds do we burn per hour
In the name of your holy bonfire? [1:23, including musical interlude]
 
Human meat is sweet in taste.
Judases of the blockade winters know this.
What do you need for breakfast? Again Jesus?
Eat, but know this –  we will not forgive you! [1:36]
 
REPEAT CHORUS [2:31, including musical interlude]
And what should we do? About what are we singing?
Above whose shoulders is my head?
What is the price of an Afghan death?
If our life is not right? [2:45]
REPEAT CHORUS [4:32, including musical interlude and conclusion]
