| description | In 1976, punk took the United Kingdom by surprise, and for one brief moment, challenged some of the cultural and social assumptions of British society, shocking public opinion and causing an outbreak of moral panic in its wake. The same year, in Northern Ireland, 297 people lost their lives because of the conflict known as the ‘Troubles”. The Sex Pistols could sing about it, but for people living in Northern Ireland, “Anarchy in the UK” was more than just a song, it was what they experienced in their everyday lives. Yet, while the conflict raged on, hundreds of young Catholics and Protestants met up week after week in shared spaces to listen to or to make punk rock music. This article seeks to examine whether and how the Northern Ireland punk scene was affected by violence in a society which was itself beset by conflict. |
