This book explores the album 'K lmale maale' (To The Cold Land, 1989) by J.M.K.E. - the most legendary punk rock band in Estonia, concentrating on the meaning of the album in different sociocultural contexts from its release until today. In 35 years, the album has not lost its relevance: It was nominated for best pop music album of Estonia in 2014 and is listened to by all generations of punks, including the 1980s youth but also today's teenagers. The story of J.M.K.E. illustrates the subcultural organization not only in Estonia but in the Soviet Union in general, where pop music was more or less censored for 50 years, and the possibilities for subcultures to exist in such an environment. Broadly, it presents the influential role of pop culture in the transition from a totalitarian society to a liberal economy and from subcultural to post-subcultural society.
