Pussy Riot release music video for "Riot"

Pussy Riot have unveiled the music video for their latest single “Riot.”

The visual, which can be seen below, was directed, edited, colored, and styled by Pussy Riot’s Nadya Tolokonnikova. The protest song is a collaboration with German IDM act IXXF. The track was inspired by the Black Lives Matter protests and the recent arrest of Pussy Riot member Peter Verzilov. In an update, the band states:

“Pussy Riot's Peter Verzilov is going through a painful criminal investigation currently in Moscow. His flat and flats of his relatives were searched by the police eight times so far; all his documents and documents of his family are seized. Peter can't leave Moscow while the investigation. He's being accused of failing to declare dual citizenship (Russian and Canadian) and faces fines. It's clear that this criminal case has a goal to intimidate Peter Verzilov, Pussy Riot and other activists and to prevent protest actions from happening while Putin loses his popularity and support.”
