Galloping Coroners: Galloping Coroners (native Hungarian name: , also as VHK, in German Rasende Leichenbeschauer) was a Hungarian underground rock band active from 1975-2001, and reestablished in 2009.  VHK established a unique "shaman punk" or "psychedelic hardcore” sound, and is regarded as one of the most important alternative bands from the East-European block in the 80s.  Permanent restrictions by the Hungarian authorities made it hard for VHK to tour worldwide as Western bands could, but still their ecstatic concerts earned surprising success in Western-Europe.  Though VHK won't become a worldwide music brand, Maximum Rock’N Roll (USA) described the band as "equal in spirit and grit to faves like Sonic Youth or Big Black but with an identity all its own”.  VHK have been praised as a highly important band by Iggy Pop, Henry Rollins, Jello Biafra (Dead Kennedys) and Einstürzende Neubauten.
