Pussy Riot have shared a new single, Bad Trip.
Offering a bass-heavy beat, the electro-rock hybrid features Argentinian producer Mykka and British duo Nova Twins. It marks the Russian punk group's first new music since their spring single, Chastity with Alice Glass and Boys Noize. Nadya Riot commented:
"Mykka played this beat for me and I got obsessed and begged her to give it to me. It sounds menacing and dominant. I'm a big fan of Bosch so I wanted to imagine what would be my version of hell / bad trip in this track - being mansplained and totally dominated would be a version of hell for me, that's why my verse goes: "Mansplain me! i don't really know what am i doing with my life, how to be a woman, tell me how to be a wife, tell me how to kiss and tell me how to die. wanna be obedient, i wanna be your wife wife."
Nova Twins added: "We love Pussy Riot and all that they stand for, so when Nadya messaged us during lockdown, asking us to feature on Bad Trip, we were super excited! The tune bangs and they are a force of nature!"
The track arrives ahead of the North American leg of Pussy Riot's Riot Days Tour, a theatrical accompaniment to the memoir of Pussy Riot's Maria Alyokhina.
In 2022, Pussy Riot released their debut mixtape, 'Matriarchy Now', which was executive produced by Tove Lo.
