The album features fourteen tracks, including features from Avenged Sevenfold, B-Real, salem ilese, and Vladimir Putin. Nadya Tolokonnikova released a statement along with the album announcement that reads in part, “All these old men ruining the world right now act tough – but we see thru their fragile egos – and I’m not afraid to call them out. They are, in fact, pussies. While the world is waiting for the UFC Freedom 250 on June 14 at the White House, I challenge President Putin to a cage match. He thinks he’s so tough, but afraid of a girl? Let’s see. He loses? He gets the fuck out of Ukraine. The world can watch him lose to a girl, even with all his judo training. He can’t even URA anymore, but he throws the world into despair. Just like Brener in 1995 when they bombed Chechnya, and he challenged Yeltsin, now they bomb Ukraine, and I challenge Putin.” A video for “CANDY DOPAMINE”, their song featuring Avenged Sevenfold, has also been released. It was created by Nadya Tolokonnikova, Riley Bray, and John Caldwell. Pussy Riot have released a handful of singles in recent years and released their EP MATRIARCHY NOW in 2022.
