I've lived in Romania my whole life, yet I'd always thought that punk only reached the country after the fall of Communism in 1989. Then I heard about an exhibition by the name of Punk, Ash and Holocaust taking place in the southwest Romanian town of Craiova_._ Turns out it was the birthplace of punk in Romania, and sheltered a thousand-strong punk community in the late 80s, which flourished through the 90s until globalisation got the better of us.
