BELARUSIAN ROCK MUSICIANS REPORTEDLY BARRED FROM RADIO



Several radio stations in Minsk told BelaPAN on 2 August that they have been "unofficially ordered" not to include compositions by several popular rock groups on their playlists under any pretext. The blacklisted artists include the rock bands Neuro Dubel, N.R.M., Palats, and Drum Ecstasy, as well as singer Zmitser Vaytsyushkevich. Neuro Dubel front man Alyaksandr Kulinkovich linked the ban to his band's performance during the 21 July opposition rally to mark Belarusian President Alyaksandr Lukashenka's decade in power, which ended in the arrest of dozens of people.
