Myanmar's military seized power, imprisoned its democratically-elected leaders and imposed a year-long state of emergency on 1 February 2021, claiming "election fraud" from November's polls but without any evidence. The first public display of dissent towards the junta was the day after when people throughout the country banged pots and pans at 8pm, a form of protest known by the Spanish word cacelorazo. It is the sound of solidarity against the regime.
This song made by a collection of Yangon-based punks who wanted to share in this unity by bringing people together from across the Yangon punk community to write and record our own raucous din.
All proceeds for this song will be donated to support Myanmar's civil disobedience movement.
