As a tribute to Kentex Workers and all workers subjected to precarious work. The General Strike's 1st single, Pugon.
Justice for Kentex Workers!


PUGON
I
Rehas sa bintana
kandado sa pinto
hindi kriminal
ngunit daig pa ang bilanggo

II
Sila`y manggagawa
sadyang piniit
sa hirap at gutomdusa at sakit
hanggang isang araw malagim ang sinapit

REFRAIN:
Naghahanapbuhay
sa hanapbuhay
sila namatay

CHORUS:
Nagliyab itong kahon
kinulong at binaon
naabo sila doon
sa pabrikang naging pugon

Recorded, mixed & mastered @ JNJ Studios

Pugon

The band wanted to play blues, or at least tried. The result was not completely what they had in mind but still a step in the right direction. Regardless if it be blues or any other sound. The idea stemmed from a singular desire to make music about the plight of common folk and revolution. The General Strike is an attempt to inject Filipino music with more soul; a blues based, "red" centered and fist in the air kind of jam.
