Never Forget The Cause



Never Forget The Cause is a punk rock/electronic/indie music collective from Quezon City in the Philippines that advances the DIY ethos of the early anarcho-punk movement.

Their recordings serve as a musical manifesto to a movement that believes that music need not be boxed as a commodity that can be sold, because we believe that no one has a natural right to make a claim of ownership to an idea, as all minds are free and so are the ideas that flourish from them.

We question the status quo of those who seek to put an iron hold on the music industry, by launching a crusade that is geared up on advancing corporate 'pop' music by subverting the underground music scene's aesthetics in order to create a more media savvy and blander version of such underground forms of music.

The band also is an advocate, the Open Source approach to design, development, and distribution of music.

Also they adhere to the free culture movement that promotes the freedom to distribute and modify creative works, using the Internet as well as other media.

They object to overly restrictive copyright laws, and intellectual property. Instead we promote the Creative Commons and Copyleft forms of licensing.

They seek to liberate the airwaves, from bland pop music as well as to confront the corporate music industry's spectacle of hype at its own irrelevance.

Ideas are free and so is music.

Viva Free Music!
