Pretty easy, they followed the good old party doctrine that all which doesn´t conform with the official party line has to be capitalist junk. Also consider that rock (esp. punk) and pop has a certain potential for opposition - rock is a lot about rebellion etc. In the eyes of those guys this was pure subversion - something the good people of the Soviet Union (and the entire Eastern block) must be save from.

For most of these countries there was a secondary reason to forbid western music, movies and books (not all, of course, a lot was still seen as "unpolitical" or even "progressive"): those had to be paid in hard currency, which was always a rare thing in communist economies.

Oh, BTW (forgot this thread ).

Firstly, it's printed with a printer and on odd-looking paper. Secondly, none of the similar documents I saw started with ïðîëåòàðèè âñåõ ñòðàí, ñîåäèíÿòåñü. More likely for it to have Lenin's face, actually. The most ridicilous part though is íåîáõîäèìî îáåñïå÷èòü âñå ìîëîäåæíûå äèñêîòåêè ðàéîíà. Tell me, older Soviet people, how many youth discos do you remember in the ole good USSR that had foreign music, eh?

It just seems senseless. In the end I think it was the unnecessary oppression that hurt their rule more than the western expressions. Even if you didn't like any of those bands, why would you want to be ruled by such idiots?

How old is very old? Some of our leaders are pretty old, and the elderly are very strong politically here in the US. You have to be 18, but you can still get anti-capitalist music.

The leadership certainly WAS NOT insane. they were complacent, and uncaring of the people. They were old and stale. But they weren't insane.
