Squawkbox is a passionate musician. He loves playing with sound. Listening to, creating, and manipulating sound is his life. The results of his compositions have been called "unnervingly cacophonous" but his Decepticon commanders came up with a way to put them to good use. Squawkbox has been assigned the function of "Battlefield Dissonance" and set free to distract and disorient the Autobots with his latest works. Squawkbox is thrilled to have both a captive audience and access to all the terrible sounds of a battlefield for future use.
