Kofe (Кофе), or \"Coffee\", was formed in 1983 by Edward Nesterenko, Alexander Senin, Stanislaus Tishkov and Gregory Kobeshavidze and almost immediately with the participation of then-novice sound engineer Alexei Cherry recorded his debut album, \"Ballet.\" The band played \"new wave\", used the texts in the spirit of neo-romanticism that then rock scene was a bit unusual. In 1985, from \"Coffee\" leaves Kobeshavidze, but joined Igor Kopylov and Igor Petrov - former bassist and guitarist for \"TV\". The new composition of the group entered into a rock club, gave several successful concerts in the Palace of Youth, and even falling on the \"Musical Ring\", recorded their second album \"Balance\". On the fourth rock festival, the group was not related, the rock community remained hostile - antisocial texts and sound too trendy \"coffee\" and scare away the critics and parties, while at the same time the audience. In 1987, the group ceased to exist.
