Cambodia, the Rock Killed For being guilty of rock music, I think the most famous case in history is the Plastic People of the Universe. In 1976, this band attracted a loyal fan, who at the time was a playwright; his collection of works would take many years to reach us. Shortly after, these bad boys were thrown into prison. In fact, their music was completely unrelated to politics—the reasons were merely drug use, alcoholism, group sex, and the so-called rock lifestyle of excessive decibels. The prison sentences were not long, ranging from a few months to a couple of years, but this brief imprisonment marked them in history—the playwright was infuriated and launched a rescue protest, which led him into politics. Then, ten years later, the glamorous Velvet Revolution saw this devoted fan of the Plastic People become the President of the Czech Republic. Many articles about this legendary band begin with the phrase, a legendary rock band that brought down a regime. Yes, despite being imprisoned, the truth according to the Westerners still favored the rock musicians. The same year they were jailed, in Southeast Asia—far from the Czech Republic—countless rock musicians were beheaded for their music, leaving no trace of their names.
