Boikot is a Spanish punk rock band known for its raw energy, activist messages, and potent social and political lyrics that resonate with both national and international audiences. Formed in the late 1980s in Madrid, Boikot has become a staple of the Spanish punk scene, delivering a powerful blend of rock, ska, and punk with a uniquely Iberian twist. The band's music is characterized by its rebellious spirit and a willingness to tackle issues ranging from political corruption to social injustice, making them a voice for the disenfranchised.
Over the years, Boikot has built a robust discography, and their enduring commitment to social causes is reflected in their recent releases. "Balkan Acoustic" showcases their adaptability and range, stripping down their sound without losing the potent message that defines their music. Singles like "Skalashnikov (Balkan Acoustic)" and "Resistiré" see the band exploring acoustic textures while maintaining their hard-hitting lyricism. With tracks such as "Alma Guerrera, Ni una Menos," Boikot makes a strong statement on gender violence, and songs like "Hablarán las Calles" continue to demonstrate their place at the forefront of protest music in Spain. Their engagement with contemporary politics is evident in "Se Puede (Canción de Campaña de Unidas Podemos)," which served as a campaign song for the Spanish political party Unidas Podemos. Through their music, Boikot continues to inspire listeners to think critically and to fight for a better world.
