Songs for the Rioters (Korean: 청년폭도맹진가; RR: Cheongnyeonpokdomaengjinga) is the debut studio album by South Korean punk rock band No Brain. The album was released on 7 July 2000.[1] The album was considered by many media as the best album in the history of Korean punk rock.[2][3][4]
No Brain was formed in 1996 at the live club Drug and they gained their popularity by performing at numerous live clubs in Hongdae in the late 1990s.[5] They created their own label Moonhwa Sagidan, and released an EP Youth 98 (청춘 98) in 1998.[6] They took a short break after the EP's release, as Cha Seung-woo joined the military, and produced their first studio album.[7][8]
