The melody comes from the State Anthem of the Soviet Union, composed by Alexander Alexandrov and adopted in 1944, later adapted as Russia's current anthem. Online, an intentionally distorted earrape version spread through YouTube, gaming videos and communist meme edits in the 2010s, where the solemn anthem became shorthand for ironic USSR nostalgia. Creators kept reusing the loud edit because the contrast between formal patriotic music and blown-out audio reads instantly as a joke, even without any visual context.

Distorted earrape version of the Soviet Union national anthem, blasted at extreme volume for meme intros, ironic patriotic edits and shock humor.
This is a heavily distorted, bass-boosted earrape edit of the USSR national anthem, stretched to over twenty seconds of clipped brass, choir and orchestra at painful volume. The familiar solemn melody is still recognizable, but the extreme compression and distortion turn patriotic grandeur into absurd comedy. It hits like a sudden blast rather than a normal song clip, which is why viewers instantly read it as ironic, over-the-top Soviet nostalgia played purely for shock value and meme timing. It works best as a punchline, not background music.
