from what i've read it's named like that because it's a sort of musical world after some catastrophe (thus Pripyat, the town abandoned after Charnobyl happened). the album doesn't contain any real life words (only imaginative syllables), and it's utterly experimental. I think it's pretty fitting.

Yup, i know what's Pripyat, i'm from a nearby region. I just don't think that a place that is a great pain and an ongoing huge nuclear threat is a fitting name to a sort of posthuman post-catastrophe album chosen cause of 'interesting phonetics' of the word

from what i've read (probably not 100% accurate) the record being named Pripyat was purely coincidental (she apparently really liked the phonetics of the name?) to the actual city; I do agree that as an artist completely detached from the tragedy that befell the actual city of Pripyat, Marina should have been more wise as to have renamed it to something else. I still really love the record, though
