Pussy Riot co-founder Nadya Tolokonnikova has spoken to NME about the band's “audacious” debut album 'CYKA', as well as the importance of standing up against fascism and finding hope in the hopelessness.

Three members (Tolokonnikova, Maria Alyokhina and Yekaterina Samutsevich) were arrested for hooliganism, held without bail and sentenced to two years in prison. Organizations around the world criticized…

Critics hail it as one of the most surprising debuts of the year, finding themselves faced with something that really doesn't resemble anything else out there. And for many it is the first meeting with Kelsey Lu; an artist who grew up among the discipline of classical cello, escaped from an extremely religious upbringing, with collaborations with Solange,…

Hit Vibes embraces consumerist maximalism with its tongue held firmly in its cheek. The blown-out horns on the opening track are followed by a pair of silly anachronisms: the glorified 2010s DJ tag (“it’s Saint Pepsi, bitch”) we hear before the delightfully cheugy synths of “Have Faith,” and a sample of Toad screaming from 1996’s Mario Kart 64 that underscores “Better”’s horn runs. On the album’s minute-long interlude, we get a clip from the 1996 film Everyone Says I Love You, where—over a smoothed out soul instrumental—one character, Holden Spence, ostentatiously contemplates buying an engagement ring for his lover, Skylar.…
