ACAB
ACAB were a '90s Oi! band from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I say were because, although they're still around, they seem to have gone in a more indie rock (?) direction nowadays. Like their name (taken from a 4 Skins song), they're nothing really too original or remarkable... just good, strong, stalwart, anthemic Oi!, although they can sometimes veer towards the more metal. Nevertheless, to their credit, they were definitely doing what nobody was doing in the region (I should know) and helped to build the streetpunk/oi! movement not only in Malaysia but in other parts of South East Asia.
Hometown pride.
Here are a couple of tracks from one of their full lengths Eastern Oi!. Not sure about where exactly this fits in their discography as I managed to buy this as a double CD bootleg (with another full length, Skinhead 4 Life at a flea market in Johor Bahru 5 or 6 years ago.
