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...
The Hostile Ones are a band from Helsinki, and this is their latest release, put out on a ten-inch vinyl. I first came across mentions of their activity in 2022, so unless the band had been secretly creating something underground before that, this is a fairly new project. They sing...
The Enforcers from Canada have already appeared here – back then in a review of their debut album. That one was excellent, and the band continues in the very same spirit. Their second release, or rather a mini-album from this tough Canadian bootboy gang, came out as a joint effort...
Castillo from Los Angeles are one of the leading names of the dominant wave of Oi! currently storming clubs across the U.S.. The driving force behind the project is Alex Zambrano, who has been involved in a number of Oi!/streetpunk/hardcore bands – most notably Combat Force, Criminal Outfit, and Repeat...
Big Dog is an Oi! band from Buffalo featuring members of Violent Way, with a massive guy named Graham on vocals. The guys from Violent Way deliver heavy and aggressive Oi!, while Graham tops it off with his rough voice. The result is four fierce tracks with a perfect sound...
Brut is a project by Brod Ashmol from Australia, who has been involved in bands like Marching Orders, Stranglehold, Razorcut, The Truth, and The Hard Targets. If I understood correctly, Brut is actually a one-man project, but I’m not entirely sure – the booklet didn’t reveal much, so in that...
Over the Hill is a Canadian band from Montreal, made up of guys who have been around the scene for quite a few years. If you’re curious about which bands the members played in before, check out the interview we did with them earlier this year on our website –...
