The Rebel Riot

The Rebel Riot: Myanmar's Punk Voice Against Oppression


The Rebel Riot isn't just a band in Myanmar (also known as Burma) – it's a movement. Born from the ashes of the 2007 uprising against the military junta, their music is a raw, angry cry for freedom. Inspired by the defiance of global punk icons like the Sex Pistols, The Rebel Riot emerged as thousands protested for democracy. Their city, Yangon, became a stage for their rebellion. As the junta responded with violence, the band's music became a rallying point. Songs like "One Day" became anthems, their lyrics a call to fight for a future free from oppression. Today, Myanmar remains under military rule following a 2021 coup. Yet, The Rebel Riot's music continues to inspire. Their fight isn't just for themselves; it's a soundtrack for a generation demanding change. They are a powerful reminder that even in the face of oppression, the human spirit can't be silenced. Abbruch Records together with other labels and communities raise money for The Rebel Riot crew by selling solidarity records and T-shirts.
