Slavic Deficiency in Metal, Rock and Punk

As I was going over the list of the ethnicities that dominate rock, metal, and punk music, I found that there were very few people of eastern european decent (except the Polish). I don't know if it's because the culture doesn't value music, or if there aren't that many people with that ethnic background that is the cause for this. And this is mostly for well-known people in the mentioned genres.

Young Widows CD Review

Artist:Young Widows
Title: Old Wounds
Label: Temporary Residence

Review:
Once in a while there is a time when most music that is out on the shelves is sounding all the same. It only takes a few great bands to break through this sound-alike sea. That’s where Young Widows come in. On their release Old Wounds, Young Widows prove that there is still good distorted rock music coming from the non-metal/hard rock camp. Their sound is very dissident and textured. Tracks such as Mr. No Harm, 21st Century Invention have a dissident and foreboding mood that makes the listener feel creepy and uneasy. While tracks such as Lucky Hardheaded, Delay Your Pressure, Feelers express real angst and anger. If this is a sign of things to come, then Young Widows are on the right track.
