The General Strike - Pugon (2016) / Filipino blues rock

This song was played in the ending credits of the #HorrorMovie #Nocebo. The entire album slaps and it’s all about the experiences and suffering of workers and labourers. I’ll post the translation in a bit since there’s a word count limit on Mastodon.

1/🧵
@alternativenation
Making a living but instead dying in living
in this ablazing “box” while imprisoned and buried
They turned into ashes inside a factory that became a “furnace”
Making a living but instead dying in living
in this ablazed “box” while imprisoned and buried
They turned into ashes inside a factory that became a “Furnace”
Bars in the windows
A lock on the door
Not criminal
But worse than a prisoner

@alternativenation
They are workers
Deliberately caged
Amidst hardship and hunger, suffering and pain
Until one day, befell in tragedy
Making a living but instead dying in living
in this ablazed “box” while imprisoned and buried
They turned into ashes inside a factory that became a “Furnace”
