I cannot disagree at all with Styx being on the list.


I always remember seeing a Styx Behind the Music (or something like that) and Tommy Shaw complaining about Dennis DeYoung wanted to do a long version of Dr. Roboto at the Texas Jam. "Really, it's like 99 degrees and these kids are dying in the heat!. They just wanna Rock!" "and he wants to do experimental opera!"

Well, years before priests used to censor movies, looking for a woman’s bare leg or inappropriate kisses to have them - literally - cut. What should have known a priest about all that?

Yea, I know...

Yeah, I was curious about that too. The best explanation I could come up with is:

"Brothers; Comrades: I can't explain Sex or Eroticism, but I certainly recognize it when I see and hear it."

And Depeche Mode for punk, violence. Sex, I could've understood...

Well, at least the Pet Shop Boys were ALSO left of this list as well. Probably the soviet-era spy state were fans of "You Were Always On My Mind".

Also, re: Black Sabbath & Iron Maiden: wtf is "religious obscurantism"?!

"A list of western bands banned in 1985 Soviet Union"

Our favorite fellows somehow missed this list, yet Styx & Julio Iglasias make it? WTF?
