Pussy Riot

Pussy Riot is a Russian feminist protest and performance art group based in Moscow that became popular for its provocative punk rock music which later turned into a more accessible style. Founded in August 2011, it has had a membership of approximately 11 women.[1] The group staged unauthorized, provocative guerrilla gigs in public places. These performances were filmed as music videos and posted on the internet.[2] The group's lyrical themes included feminism, LGBT rights, opposition to Russian President Vladimir Putin and his policies,[3] and Putin's links to the leadership of the Russian Orthodox Church.[4] -Wikipedia
