Kosmikud are an Estonian alternative rock group founded in 1999.[1] They released their first album Ei roosid in 2000, after their singer Taavi Pedriks died. The remaining three members of the band – Aleksander Vana (guitar), Kristo Rajasaare (drums) and Raivo Rätte (aka Kõmmari, bass) – decided to take a time out, rehearse and try new singers. They finally chose Meelis Hainsoo (Hainz), violinist in Eriti Kurva Muusika Ansambel ('Ensemble of Especially Sad Music') and also a friend of their previous singer.
Kosmikud performing in 2012.
Their second album Kuidas tuli pimedus... ('How Darkness Came...'), which was released in 2003, includes songs that talk about love, death, depression, etc. Their biggest influences have been Joy Division, Nick Cave, and Кино.
On 18 July 2018, Raivo Rätte was killed when he was hit by a car apparently driven by his former wife's new partner.[2] Criminal investigation is ongoing.[3]
