IRAN IS A COUNTRY IN WHICH MUSIC IS LIMITED TO A GREAT EXTENT. THE 1979 REVOLUTION was BAD SITUATION FOR ART AND MUSIC SOCIETY. SINCE THE FIRST YEARS AFTER THE REVOLUTION, ALL TE MUSIC ACTIVITIES WERE BANNED. POP MUSIC HAS BEEN REGARDED AGAINST LAW, AND THEN ROCK MUSIC WAS TREATED THE SAME. THE ONLY FORM OF MUSIC WHICH COULD BE MADE AND HEARD WAS TRADITIONAL MUSIC, AND REVOLUTIONARY SONGS. THE MINISTRY OF CULTURE AND ISLAMIC GUIDANCE USED TO FILTER ANY FORM OF MUSIC. THIS SITUATION LASTED TILL THE BEGINNING OF the 90’S. THE ONLY ROCK BAND IN THAT TIME WAS NAMED “KOUCH”, WHICH USED TO PRODUCE AND PUBLISH ITS MUSIC IN THE COUNTRY STYLE, IN US. IN IRAN THERE WERE A FEW BANDS WHICH MADE UNDERGROUND MUSIC, BUT THERE WAS NOT STILL GOOD SITUATION FOR ROCK MUSIC.
