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
Lost Legion from Chicago are, for me, one of the most essential contemporary bands around. This is their 7″, featuring four songs. The material on this EP was recorded earlier and was originally supposed to be released in 2022. According to what I was able to find, the release was...
Street Code are a band from Toronto, Canada, and according to what I managed to dig up, they rose from the ashes of Rough Cuts and Overpower. I mainly registered Rough Cuts as a straight-up Oi! band, not least thanks to their split EP with the British legends Red...
Klaxon are an Oi! band from Rhode Island on the East Coast of the USA. This LP is made up of material written between 2023 and 2025. Originally, the band released these tracks one by one as singles on Bandcamp, and this year their release was taken over by the...
Yeah! This Australian wrecking machine from Sydney made a strong impression on me years ago when I had the chance to see them live. An excellent show, and I absolutely love the albums Nail It Shout and Know The Code. When the news broke that Rebellion Records had dug an...
Razortooth are new blood on the Scottish scene. I was curious to hear how a new band from Scotland would sound, as historically I mainly know On File (all three of their records are great), and in recent years I also noticed Cuttin‘ Edge from Glasgow. They released a solid...
This is the second release from this young band out of Springfield, Illinois. On a seven-inch vinyl format it delivers five songs in total, which I absolutely love. The 7″ is still my favorite vinyl format of all. No Guard operate within a fairly wide range of influences, with a...
Boston Hardcore – all day, every day! A burst of fresh blood on the U.S. hardcore scene, kicking hard in every direction. This is the kind of hardcore I’m into – tempo shifts, builds from groovy, head-nodding parts into crushing blasts of sound, and a fast, clipped vocal right up...
Battle Ruins are a phenomenon. Their self-titled 7″ EP from 2010 was the first release that introduced them to the world under the Rock ‚N‘ Roll Disgrace Records label. Now, in 2024, this classic gets a repress – this time on 12″ vinyl in a deluxe gatefold sleeve, courtesy of...
This mini LP was released in 2023 as a collaboration between Try And Stop Me Records and Mister Face Records. Intimidation is a four-piece band hailing from New Jersey and western Massachusetts, USA. They seem to come from the same tribe as bands like Violent Way, Restraining Order, Klaxon, The...
I’d been looking forward to this record ever since the first mentions of it appeared. I discovered the Canadian project First Attack on Bandcamp, where two songs were initially released. What immediately caught my attention was the involvement of vocalist and guitarist Greg Huff, known from bands like Glory Stompers,...
Contra is the second full-length album from Chicago’s Fuerza Bruta. This crew delivers top-notch Oi! punk that, in my opinion, ranks among the best the global scene has to offer. The record kicks off with a dark, choral intro that sets an occult tone — one that runs through the...
Šminky padlejch královen (Makeup of Fallen Queens) was released in 2021 on Cecek Records. It’s the eighth studio release from this Prague-based band—counting their split album with kindred spirits Supertesla. Nežfaleš has been around long enough to develop a distinctive and unmistakable voice. At the same time, their music reflects...
