Protest music against the Marcos dictatorship

The different forms and trends of protest music against the Marcos dictatorship mostly first became prominent during the period now known as the First Quarter Storm,[1] and continued until Ferdinand Marcos was deposed during the 1986 People Power revolution;[2] some of the trends continued beyond this period either in commemoration of the struggle against the Marcos dictatorship,[3] or in opposition to the political return of the Marcos family to a prominent place in Philippine politics.[4][5][6]
