''Soviet Kitsch'' is the third studio album by Music/ReginaSpektor. Released in 2004, it also serves as her major label debut album, and debuts some of the quirks found in her later albums. The album is mostly a Music/AlternativeIndie album, but it also takes influence from Music/FolkMusic, more specifically, Anti-Folk.
