As far as I could say, punk movement was born as an antithesis to middle class values. As Russia doesn't exactly have a middle class just yet, Russian punks are not punks at all, more like fake rebels, a mimicry of a culturally foreign fenomena due to musical tastes and such - a bit shallow given the circumstances, if you ask me.
