ACAB is a punk rock group from Malaysia .

The group is committed to the skinhead movement. Accordingly, musically and lyrically, they are based on the part of the British punk rock bands of the second generation, which the music journalist Gary Bushell subsumed under the catchphrase "Oi!" There are also some influences from reggae and ska .

In their texts, ACAB deal with typical skinhead topics such as big cities, football, violence, weekends, alcohol and life as a skinhead, but also take a socially critical position, for example against racism or the poverty gap.
