Got fascinated watching early Depeche mode ,sioux,the smiths and other shows from the 90's, they seemed so wild,so vivid and not caring at all. And all these bands were supposed to sound "soft", compared to most of the current western shows I've watched from bands that intend to look tough, evil and brutal but their performances are just "disconnected" and extremely boring.

I'll be always grateful to vk artists for allowing me to discover the post punk scene while introducing some of their most memorable artists and works.
I have the same opinion of yours, and also feel the same way respect the vk scene nowadays. Original VK (even when it wasn't called that way) imported the same "ethos" of post punk; thus the classics acts still sound fresh and genuine despite having 20 or 30+ years old, and in the other hand, newer acts can only become more and more industrialized, to the point of looking ridiculous when looking for the attention of kogal and young girls obssesed with anime and game characters. So VK as a canal of true artistic expression, with its charge of social inconformism, like post punk was, is pretty much dead.
