Indian punk band DIY DISRUPTION’s latest single, “Who Killed Ra(h)ul??”, is a blistering punk rock anthem that tackles the rising harassment and violence faced by students and activists standing up to oppressive forces. As Kerala’s only active punk rock band, DIY Disruption channels defiance, rage, and resilience into this track, which serves as a tribute to the valiant youth who refuse to be silenced in the face of fascist intimidation.
The song tells the story of a student who bravely fights against authoritarianism but is ultimately crushed under the weight of harassment and repression. Despite this, “Who Killed Ra(h)ul??” is not a song of defeat—it’s a song of resistance. It reflects the enduring courage of marginalized people whose spirit and legacy live on even after they are no more.
With raw, gritty guitars, powerful vocals, and explosive energy, DIY Disruption stays true to punk rock’s roots while bringing their own perspective as a queer-fronted band from South India. Their music seeks to challenge the status quo, spark conversation, and inspire a new generation of dissenters and disruptors.
DIY Disruption’s sound and ethos are a reminder that punk remains a vital force for social and political commentary—and “Who Killed Ra(h)ul??” is the latest battle cry in that ongoing fight.
