Автоматические удовлетворители ("Awtomaticzeskie Udowletworiteli", The Automatic Satisfiers in English) were an iconic and highly influential Russian punk rock band, formed in Saint Petersburg in 1979. Though they have been described as "the definitive Russian punk rock band", the Awtomaticzeskie Udowletworiteli were active for nineteen years (1979—1998), and released zero albums, and zero singles during that time. "The Father of Russian Punk," the late Andrei Panov, better known as Swinja, Swin, Svinya, Svin, or Swine (Pig), was one of the first punk rockers in the city even before he heard the music. According to one interview, he fell in love with punk rock after reading an article criticizing the Sex Pistols in a Soviet newspaper. His band was a sort of underground club for dozens of local musicians, including Кино's late frontman, Viktor Tsoi, and Tequilajazzz's Yevgeny Fyodorov. Panov died of an abdominal disorder at the age of 38 on August 20, 1998. .
