Forever the shatterer of social mores and allies to all marginalized communities, Industrial Metal titans Rammstein performed in Moscow, Russia this week at a sold-out stadium show. To defy severe anti-LGBTQ laws, guitarists Paul Landers and Richard Kruspe performed an on-stage protest to Russia’s abhorrent anti-LGBTQ laws as they kissed passionately on stage during the band’s concert. Russia’s “gay propaganda” law, which was passed and enacted in 2013. The law makes it illegal to present any “non-traditional” (i.e., heterosexual) sexual act as “normal,” supposedly in the name of protecting children.
