Punks in der ehemaligen, birmanischen Hauptstadt Yangon.


Parallel to the official start of the Burmese New Year Water Festival ("Thingyan") an underground punk rock concert takes place in the former Burmese capital city of Rangoon (Yangon), April 12, 2014. The punk counterculture of Myanmar was mainly influenced by the British and American punk music scene of the 1970´s and 80´s and exists on the fringes of the once closed-off country. The local punks revolt against any political injustice as well as against religious intolerance and express that through their music.
