Promyshlennaya Arkhitektura (, Russian for Industrial Architecture) was a Soviet punk band from Novosibirsk that existed from 1988 to 1989. It was founded by Dmitry Selivanov and was disbanded shortly following his death.

History The band was founded in 1988 by Dmitry Selivanov a few weeks after his departure from Grazhdanskaya Oborona.

In 1988, the band recorded the album Любовь и технология (Love and Technology) at the Electron Student Club of NETI. That same year, the album was discovered by the organizers of the Syrok Moscow Rock Festival, who then invited the band to perform at the event. However, the show was disrupted because the sound was cut off.

After their failure in Moscow, the band returned to Novosibirsk and recorded their concert in the Palace of Culture of Railway Workers. This became the basis for their album “Live Архитектура”.

The group disbanded after the suicide of Dmitry Selivanov in April 1989.The deaths of Russian rock musicians in 1988–2009. Reference. RIA Novosti.
