Each individual scene has a load of politics and history to deal with. And being a daft American without a wide ranging view of international history doesn’t help suss out why which music occurred where and why. It makes sense that Israel has a pretty nasty hardcore scene – it’s a war zone after all. But a giant blind spot in regarding Easter European history has served to obscure punk from what was at one time Yugoslavia. And if there’s another body Stateside that detail the break up of that nation and its resultant countries, lemme know.
