This is the history, the etymology of slavery and liberty! Little boys with big big fans, Cooling off the sweat of the big, white man! They eyed their bodies from their seats Bored colonialists like dogs on heat Saying “चुप लागेर तेरो पंखा हप्का! (chuppalagera punkha hapka); चुप लागेर तेरो चाक हल्ला! (chuppalagera tero chak halla!)” [shut up + shake that fan; shut up + shake your ass] Punk is the word they used to define The delinquent youth who refused to stay in line Fanning the flames of discontent Punk spread across the continents Sell your body! Sell your roots! The kids on the street! The destitutes! Reclaim the word! Reclaim the truth! The punkawallah was a prostitute! The liberated punkawallahs!

Manche chinnu parcha! Woahhhhh! You have to know people...!

To your soul To your soul Cry Cry Cry You leave in the morning with everything you own in a little black case Alone on a platform, the wind and the rain on a sad and lonely face Mother will never understand why you had to leave But the answers you seek will never be found at home The love that you need will never be found at home Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away Pushed around and kicked around, always a lonely boy You were the one that they'd talk about around town as they put you down And as hard as they would try they'd hurt to make you cry But you never cried to them, just to your soul No, you never cried to them, just to your soul Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (crying to your soul) Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (crying to your soul) Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (crying to your soul) Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away Cry, boy, cry Cry, boy, cry Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry You leave in the morning with everything you own in a little black case Alone on a platform, the wind and the rain on a sad and lonely face Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away

What's all this I hear about the New World Order? Where facebook will destroy all the social borders My age, my race, my gender will computerizs as data That will activate me as a revolutionary failure We're fighting for survival in this 3rd world border No health, no education, just chaos + disorder It's not the happy kind, there's government behind Should I run to the West to get the best or should I stay here with my comrades now? You do what you gotta do with your life! Make something new, make a sacrifice! Even though your social life deteriorates in front of you Find new ground and communicate with those who can create with you A mutual understanding, coexistence and collaborating Just co-opt and disrupt the New World Order!

म एस्तै छु, म फरक हुन सकेन म एस्तै छु, मेरो मन घुमाउन सकेन मेरो जिन्दगी छ फरक, मेरो सोचाई पनि मेरो साथीहरु कस्तो फरक छ पनि म एस्तै छु, तर तभन्दा सफा छु! त एस्तै छस्, नकारात्मक कुरा सोचेर त एस्तै छस्, मेरो खुट्टा पनि नतान न त खोलाभित्र डुबिन्दा मलाई तान्छस् पनि त माथि हाइमा पुग्दा मलाई तान्छस् पनि मलाई चाहिंदैन तेरो नेगेटिभिटी! म एस्तै छु! मलाई चाहिंदैन! Ma estai chu, ma farak hunu sakena This is how I am, I can't change Ma estai chu, mero man ghumaunu sakena This is how I am, can't change my mind Mero jindagi cha farak, mero sochai pani My life is different, and so is my thinking Mero saathi haru kasto farak cha pani My friends are also different Ma estai chu, tara tha bhanda safa chu! This is how I am, but my conscience is clear! Ta estai chas, nakaarathmuk kura sochera It's how you are, with negative thoughts Ta estai chas, mero khutta pani na thana Its how you are, don't pull me down Ta khola bhitra doobinda malai thanchas pani, When you're drowning in a river, you want to pull me in too Ta maathi high ma pugda malai thanchas pani When you're high, you want me there too Malai chahindaina, tero negativity! I don't need your negativity! Ma estai chu! Malai chahindaina! This is how I am! I don't need it!

about

Since the pandemic the band have stopped practicing together as some members are shielding. We thought it would be great to rework the audio from an old session and decided to release the remastered audio with six unreleased songs.

This session was part of a rehearsal in Kathmandu by the band in November 2018 prior to their tour to Orange Festival in Dambuk, Arunachal Pradesh, India. The videos from that session were put up on our YouTube channel.
