Over The Hill is a band from Montreal that caught my attention with their album „Over The Hill“ released on UVPRV. A bunch of guys living in the subculture, but whose lives have been shaken by parenthood and midlife crisis. It’s a story I know all too well — just...
This is our tenth published band interview, and it is also the first time we have decided to focus on a domestic Czech formation. I chose Lidské Zdroje because their story and their work are genuinely relevant, interesting, and unpretentious in contemporary punk. Their lyrics and attitude are the very...
Kong Kong: Oi Punk with King Kong DNA and swedish charm. Prepare for a journey to Gorilla City, a world where the DIY ethic reigns and three-chord anthems feature keyboards, saxophone, and organ! The Swedish band Kong Kong isn’t just any group of ugly middle-aged guys—they are gorillas with punk...
Hats & Caps from Helsinki play honest Oi! punk with the spirit of the ’80s. They’ve released an EP, a split, and one full-length album — and their second LP is already on the way. We talked to vocalist Wille about his journey into the Oi! scene, the bands that...
Fléau – brutal oi!/street punk/hardcore from Lyon – started out as a covid project, but with their first EP from March 2021 (Fléau) they gained international attention. In 2025, they released their second self-titled EP (s/t), which includes new songs as well as tracks from their debut and a cover....
I first came across Badterms when Ramon GD was preparing the cover for their second record. I tried their work and discovered great rock’n’Oi!. This band from Boston makes great music, loves subculture and has something to say about music and life in our tribe. Plus, they’re going on a...
Lately, our zine has been focusing quite a bit on Canadian bands. It wasn’t really a plan — it just sort of happened naturally. There are simply a lot of interesting projects coming out of Canada right now. One of them is The Buzzers, whose latest record you can find...
Recently, the new record by Tear Up from Watford was released, and it sold out within a few days. No wonder – it’s great. Since it caught my attention as well, we asked the band’s frontman Jamie for an interview. You can catch the band live at upcoming shows in...
Oi! on the East Coast of the USA has its own heroes and history. At the same time, new projects are emerging, and one of the most notable is definitely Shaved For Battle. Stylistically, it’s pure Oi! without compromise and without hardcore influences, carrying a proud stance. We spoke with...
Canadian Oi! scene has its legends and its fresh blood — and Reckless Upstarts stand somewhere in between. A band that’s earned its name the hard way: through honest work, relentless gigging, and staying true to what Oi! has always meant — music, attitude, and community. Hailing from Windsor, a...
Being a punk in Belarus probably never was easy. Following the massive protests of 2020, brutally suppressed with violence, the members of the band PRORVA decided to leave their home in response to the overall situation and conditions in the country. Since then, they have been building their existence and...
Poor Impulse Control are a band from Massachusetts whose work could probably best be described as skinhead hardcore. They have released one LP from last year and an EP this year. They caught my attention mainly with their online single Fresh Cut Stomp, which is an uncompromising hit. Singer Steve...
