Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin (SSLYBY) is an American indie pop band from Springfield, Missouri. Their full-length album Broom, independently released in 2005, received good reviews from Spin Magazine and they are now signed with Polyvinyl Record Co… The band’s name refers to Boris Yeltsin, the first President of Russia (1990-1999).

Spin Magazine praised SSLYBY in an October issue, and recently, SSLYBY released a split record with Michael Holt of San Francisco cult band the Mommyheads on Catbird Records.

The band has become somewhat of a blog favorite; they have received praise from the Catbirdseat, as well as from You Ain’t No Picasso and Bars and Guitars.

In February 2006, the band went on tour with Secretly Canadian band Catfish Haven.

The band’s next LP, Pershing, was released in April 2008 on Polyvinyl.

? Boris Yeltsin wasn't a dictator or a fascist killer. He came to power after the collapse of the USSR, and although his time as President was plauged by corruption and unpoplarity, he wasn't some kind of murderer like Stalin. And Stalin was a Communisnt, not a Fascist, they're like the exact opposite and hate each other. Sorry hate to see historical inaccuracies go uncorrected...

footawn: i just found out about these guys 6 seconds ago and i don't even know what the hell you're trying to get at... from someone who just found this band 6 seconds ago's perspective, it seems like a sort of "even the biggest letdown losers can still be loved.. by someone" philosophy. i don't know.. all i know is you're most likely way the hell off, and that you seem a bit of a twat.

what a horrible name. i guess pretending to like world killing facist dictators (that today's kids know about only as a name) make you hip these days. boooooooo!! this reminds me of how avril lavigne didn't know who david bowie was.
