August 14, 2026: SQUAT Show Ep. 28 - PAAK BALIK!
PAAK BALIK // BITE BACK! is about what happens when people refuse to stay quiet. This episode moves through the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and the diaspora, where punk, metal, screamo, and hardcore serve as ways to push back against power and against being treated as disposable. Some tracks are blunt and militant. Others carry language and loss in their teeth. Together, they sound like communities biting back.
