Here we go! The fifth episode of the Unite Asia Podcast!
This time we invited an important figure from the Indonesian hardcore scene – Aca of legendary hardcore band Straight Answer (formed in 1996). Aca takes us back to the day he first heard of punk rock through the Sex Pistols. In this interview, he also talks about an emergency brain surgery he had 4 years ago which resulted in part of his skull being removed. That’s why when you see him perform now on stage – he has to wear a helmet.
We also have a new Unite Asia “Picks of the Week” and “Reader’s Picks of the Week” sections along with our regular “News” section.

I don’t know why, your every hello feels like every goodbye A fleeting glimpse of beauty like ephemeral rainbows in the sky Or like how I miss my pillow...
