"Pack of Cigarettes" (‹See Tfd›Russian: «Пачка сигарет») is a song by the Soviet post-punk band Kino from the album Star Called Sun released in 1988. One of Kino's most popular songs. It was written in 1988, when Viktor Tsoi was filmed in the Needle.
It was originally planned that the new album would be called "Pachka Sigaret" because of this song, but the renaming happened after Tsoi decided to introduce "Zvezda po imeni Solntse" on the last day of recording.
In the 21st century, a number of musicians and bands such as Sergey Shnurov and Vopli Vidoplyasova offered the audience their cover versions of this song.
