Siberian Soup is a song about the Russian anarchist-feminist collective Pussy Riot getting jailed last year for their Church stunt, and is our attempt to honour them. Our singer Danny wrote the lyrics, and says this:

“Watching Pussy Riot getting bundled into a cage-like cell through my hangover eyes, I thought back to the night before when I had a party for one and did all my housework wearing nothing but red lipstick and cider. Realised most of my lyrics were ‘bout drunkeness, silliness or bad, bad boys. I wished that I could be more political, I wished my music could be a force of change. It’s not, of course, but this song is a tribute to Pussy Riot and their bravery, and also ‘bout drunk naked cleaning.”

Like Danny says, we are a bunch of wallys who try our best, but often fall short of embodying the kind of big-balls-attitude of Pussy Riot. We are a raucous rabble who like the party too much, but our hearts are in the right place.
