“I don’t wanna read the Koran, I want to read my NME”
» Blog Archive » Alien Kulture – R.A.R. Records – 1980.
Alien Kulture were a (largely) Asian punk band in the late 70s and early 80s. More info and a download of their single are over at the Kill Your Pet Puppy site. Well worth checking!
The band’s own website is at http://alienkulture.org/

Me too, but I’d still rather flip through some back copies from the 70s or 80s myself (of the NME, that is, not the Koran).
We just posted a new video on YouTube.
It is from a BBC TV Programme recorded in 1980. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adUf0PIvj1Y
More to come soon!
