Why did such a large Pagan Black Metal scene develop in Poland?

[Profanity]

Anyone know.

Why ask why? Maybe it was faith?

I don't know why, but there sure are some great Polish black metal bands, like Graveland and Gontyna Kry. Maybe there were certain conditions that caused these nationalistic, almost Nazi-like beliefs in the musicians? You can also ask, why did also it happen in Norway several years earlier? Maybe the Polish scene somehow was influenced by the Norwegan scene?

I don't know much about Polish metal, but I do know that Poland unfortunately has a pretty big neo-Nazi problem. It could have to do with communism, since fascism is pretty much the antithesis of communism. Same with eastern Germany, which of course borders on Poland - the last time I was in Germany, my friends and I had a run-in with nazis on a train between Prague and Berlin. Scary. And of course I'm not saying that all Poles or Germans are nazis, so please don't take offense.

Because most Polish black metal bands are basically neo-Nazis.
