Hello
Steve and all!
I know PTVP, Unconform and so on. They are not
clear anarchists, some of
them contact with anarchists and with
us. There is a very good
hardcore/punk/ska-zine "Knifes and
forks"(St Petersburg, the editor is
member of CWI), red
skin/antifacist/oi band "095", connecting with us very
closely in
Moscow now. There is a one problem for this concert - money
for
it(stage, electricity and so on - about 300
dollars).
There's know any punk bands near RKRP - they have a big
problem with youth.
But there is a scene of nazi punk/oi
connected with B&H in Britan.
There is big
hardcore/antifacist scene in Moscow and St Peterburg and
we(CWI)
have some connections with them(there are few members recrouted
this
year from hardcore crew). It will be good to know about
Trot.
hardcore/punk/ska bunds in Europe and USA, it'll be useful
in our work.
Comradely Ilya.

in Russia

>Hi
comrades,
>
>Earlier, Ilya informed me that on September
2nd there will be the second
>joint rally in Moscow of the
Movement for a Workers Party and the Movement
>for Civil
Rights - against the Chechen war and for workers rights. He
said
>that this time he expects it to be quite large and
hopefully with a number
of
>Moscow punk/HardCore bands
playing at the rally.
>
>Then just a few minutes ago, my
inbox received a post from Heli (of
Finland -
>see below)
regarding a Vyborg punk band, called PTVP, in the Finnish
news.
It
>reported them as antiPutin, anti-FSB and also
anti-Chechen war in their
>music. As there are some red-brown
stalinists who say, in words these exact
>things, I did a
google.com search and found a few other bits of info
on
this
>band (see below too). The PTVP are genuinely
left/anarchist and
progressive.
>
>Ilya, or anyone
else in the know - are there any articles in English
about
>the left/anarchist punk scene, as it seems bigger and
quite separate from
the
>smaller but growing nazi punk -
heavy metal scene, which is so admired in
the
>publications
of the RKRP? ISWoR will get a report out of yet another
very
>ugly side of the RKRP shortly.
>
>If any
comrades are willing to do any research on this scene- it would
be
>great if we could get involved in linking up with western
progressive
>punk-hardcore bands with Russian ones on a
progressive pro-worker,
>anti-Chechen war basis. The
possibilities are tremendous as the
>anti-capitalist movement
grows amongst youth in general, including exchange
>tours that
have a political aspect to them. The English language website
of
>Russian Hardcore is > http://www.markt-for-livet.com/RussHC.html
< If
some
>comrades are interested I would be happy to
collaborate with a team of
people
>in this work - having
collaborated with political bands in London in the
>past.
Contact me!

>Also - if anyone wants to help with costs
for publicity, transport, etc,
for
>the important September
2nd rally in Mosocw, contact Ilya Budraitsis NOW!
