History edit

The album is a conceptual work, the main theme of which is sex.[3] The disc received mostly positive reviews from critics, who noted the high quality of the recording and the well-realized concept of the album.[4][5][6]

The disc was a moderate commercial success, debuting at No. 12 on the Russian Album Chart.[7] In support of the album, a promotional campaign was organized, which included a presentation of the album in Moscow and a promo tour to the cities of the CIS.[8] According to the band members, the album SEX is a musical and sexual encyclopedia where all possible types of love have found their place: venal, fleeting, homosexual.[9]

The album was also nominated in the category Album of the Year at the 2010 Muz-TV Awards.[10]
