Pussy Riot release new single Putin Lights Up the Fires

(The Guardian) Pussy Riot, the feminist Russian punk band from which three members were found guilty of hooliganism driven by religious hatred and sentenced to two years in jail, have released a new single called Putin Lights Up the Fires. The Guardian has edited the new song to a montage of Pussy Riot members and their supporters

Google translation of the lyrics into English.

'Putin Lit Fires'

State more time in prison
The more arrests - more happiness
And every arrest - with a love of sexist
After swinging his cheeks, as the chest and abdomen

But we can not be resealed in the box
Security officers overthrew the better and more

Putin ignites the fires of revolution
He was bored and frightened people in the silence
Whatever punishment he had - that rotten ash,
With no time in many years - the subject for wet dreams

Chorus.
The country is, the country goes to the streets with audacity
The country is, the country is going to say goodbye to the regime,
The country is, the country is a wedge of feminist
And Putin is Putin goes, leave cattle

Arrested on May 6 the whole city
7 years we have little, give me 18
The ban yelling, slander, and walk,
Take his wife's dad Lukashenko

Chorus 2 times.

СЛОВА СИНГЛА ДЛЯ ПРИГОВОРА ГРУППЫ PUSSY RIOT - "ПУТИН ЗАЖИГАЕТ КОСТРЫ":

Государство в тюрьме сильнее времени
Чем больше арестов - тем больше счастья
А каждый арест - с любовью к сексисту
Качнувшему щеки, как грудь и живот

Но нас нельзя закупорить в ящик
Свергай чекистов лучше и чаще

Путин зажигает костры революций
Ему скучно и страшно с людьми в тишине
Что ни казнь у него - то гнилая рябина,
Что ни срок в много лет - то предмет для поллюций

Припев.
Страна идет, страна идет на улицы с дерзостью
Страна идет, страна идет прощаться с режимом,
Страна идет, страна идет феминистским клином
А Путин идет, Путин идет, прощаться скотом

Арестуй по 6 мая весь город
7 лет нам мало, дай 18
Запрети кричать, клеветать и гулять,
Возьми себе в жены батьку Лукашенка

Припев 2 раза.

when artists are thrown in jail because of their expressions we all are in jeopardy of the same fate.

I don't understand how anyone who considers themselves a punk fan could hate this? The music is right on par with Black Flag's Damaged or Minor Threat. I guarantee you snobs who claim that this isn't punk worship at the feet of both of those bands. These girls risked their freedom to speak out against a country that is sliding backwards and paid the price. I, for one, think this sounds pretty good and it evokes an emotional response from me that is a far cry from "six pack"

[TEHWEEZY]

They should let the pretty one go.

And the romance? Long for the good ole days. #ToRussiaWithLove #LikeARach

Great band, great song.

Tolokonnikova was part of a performance in which couples were filmed having sex in the Timiryazev State Biology Museum in Moscow in February 2008. This exhibitionist act was intended as a satire of Dmitry Medvedev's call to increase the birth rate in Russia, but was typically described as an "orgy" by the media

The connection between Pussy Riot and the political performance art group Voina was called an "aggravating moral circumstance" in the eyes of the conservative public (constitutes about 60 per cent of Russians). Some critics made little or no distinction between Pussy Riot and Voina, incorrectly attributing past actions of Voina to Pussy Riot. The performance by Voina, where a woman stole a chicken by stuffing it in her vagina, is sometimes cited by detractors of Pussy Riot, without any evidence.
