Punk is often socially engaged, but the nature of that engagement can vary. Индульгенция (Indulgencia) might step on the toes of many punks with Феминистка (Feminist, 2014). Their stance comes from values unusual in the genre, namely Christian ones – and that might be the most punk thing of all.

Being convinced of one thing, swearing by another, with religion you can go in any direction. The guys from ‘Venomous d-beat crust hardcore beast’ Convince (Moscow) are convinced that it all means nothing. To say the least. Their Религия (Religion) is more anti-religion.

Against hipsters, that’s Хипстер (= hipster) by Би-2. Whether the lyrics start with Болью хипстер (tormented hipster) as here is claimed (with a translation that’s not entirely correct), or with мой милый хипстер (my dear hipster) as seen here and in many other places, he gets the short end of the stick.
