History

After the Iranian Revolution, rock music became illegal.[3] After Iran-Iraq War, the youth needs some music to protest.[4] In the following years, groups such as Kiosk,[5] Ahoora[6] and O-Hum[7] provided important effects in this style. "Jurassic Park Coalition" is the best-known alternative rock Iranian released by Kiosk Group.[8] Alternative rock music is not yet recognized in Iran.[9] And still, the groups that work in this genre continue to operate underground.[10]
