    I've discovered a wonderful progressive rock scene that existed in communist Europe. You can feel the influence of western music, but also the opressive authoritarian atmosphere that these bands had to work in. Anyone have any music from communist Eastern Europe to share?

    I think Yugoslavia beats all of them(although it was not quite "behind the wall" as other eastern countires were)

    You have all sorts of bands

    '70s progressive rock




    early '80s new wave




    late '80s garage rock




    just to name few of them And these bands are easily equal,if not superior, to their more famous western counterparts.
