Siekiera is a Polish punk band that emerged in the early 1980s. They were known for their highly energetic and politically charged songs, which often spoke out against the oppressive communist regime in Poland at the time. The band's most famous album, "Nowa Aleksandria," is considered a seminal work in Polish punk rock, and influenced numerous other artists in the genre. Despite facing censorship and persecution from the authorities, Siekiera continued to produce music throughout the 1980s, and remain an enduring symbol of rebellion and resistance in Polish culture.
