Pussy Riot unveil two tracks about Russian police enforcement "КОШМАРЫ / NIGHTMARES" and "PONG!"

Today, Pussy Riot release two new tracks about Russian law enforcement downers: "КОШМАРЫ / NIGHTMARES" and "PONG!".

Pussy Riot says:
"In Russia prison chanson is big. It’s a chance for many to establish your identity in the face of the giant oppressive machine, that swallows people and spits out coffins. Building an alternative universe in prisoners’ folklore helps to keep valuing and respecting yourself as a human being, even if you’re living in a fucking nightmarish hell. We decided to use gabber to maintain the hardcore energy of prison chanson.


Prison songs have nor songwriters, nor producers. They belong to everybody, and they have proven to be a amazing tool of empowerment: a good old song that’s making laugh of prison guards can lift your spirit in a sad moment and, thus, literally save your life (spirit is pretty much the only one thing that keeps you alive in Russian prison).

Posting these two tracks, we demand to release Oleg Sentsov, Russian political prisoner, who was sentenced to 20 years in jail and who's on hunger strike for 72 days."
