The Sybians is a reggae project from Amsterdam. After their first single in 2025, they now come up with their debut full-length album, offering thirteen
In my opinion, Komintern Sect ranks among the foundational pillars of French Oi! punk—right alongside bands like Camera Silens, R.A.S., Reich Orgasm, and Snix. Their legacy was firmly established as early as 1983, thanks in part to their appearance on the now-legendary Chaos En France compilation (Chaos Productions), which introduced...
This record is an absolute beast! The five-piece Canadian band The Enforcers released it on Lionheart Records in a limited run of just 206 copies – and I’d say they’re one of the best new bands to emerge in recent years. Rock Against Society is raw, powerful, and bursting with...
The third release from the Munich-based hardcore bootboy band Choke Combat. After their demo on No Fuss Tapes and a debut LP on Try And Stop Me Records, they now return with a four-track EP, once again released under the TASM label. Choke Combat are now a four-piece, and stylistically...
Lion’s Law are slowly becoming veterans of the scene. After thirteen years of existence, they belong among the most active touring bands, well-known for the raw energy of their live performances. Putting aside Si Le Ciel Vient À Tomber—an album featuring French-language versions of older songs—this is the band’s fifth...
The year has barely started and the first 2026 release that landed in my hands comes from V.A.M.17, a band from Magdeburg, Germany. This is their very first official release. They originally put the recording out on streaming platforms last year, but now it has finally seen a proper vinyl...
The release of the vinyl version of this recording took a full 25 years, as it originally came out only on CD via GMM Records in 1999. This Oi!/streetpunk band from Kansas managed to release four 7″ records during their existence between 1997 and 1999, and this full-length album represents...
Béton Armé is a band from Montreal that has been active on the scene since 2018. Over the years, they have released several EPs and splits with bands such as Ultra Razzia, Force Majeure, Ad Vitam, and Violent Way, which already makes it clear where their roots lie. The foundation...
Badterms are probably best described on this EP as bovver rock. A rock’n’roll sound, a clear affinity for Oi!, and the unmistakable spirit of 1980s rock — that’s exactly what comes to mind while listening to this record. The EP was released by Lionheart Records in a strictly limited edition:...
Klasse Kriminale undoubtedly belong among the true legends of streetpunk. The band was formed back in 1985 in the Italian city of Savona, in the Liguria region, and in 2025 they celebrated an impressive 40 years of existence. Four decades of continuous activity on the punk scene is an achievement...
Spotty Herbert first caught my attention as a proper old-school printed zine. Its third issue was released together with a vinyl compilation made up exclusively of Oi! bands from the USA, which is already a good reason to pay attention. The compilation features 15 songs in total, with the...
