There’s another name on the scene that fans of classic Oi! definitely shouldn’t overlook. The King’s Cannons came together on the streets of New Orleans in 2025 and have recently released their self-titled debut album. Across eight raw tracks, the band delivers razor-sharp guitars, catchy singalongs, and genuine street-level energy.
The band keeps things direct and doesn’t waste time with unnecessary frills. Their sound draws heavily from classic British Oi!, street punk, and rock ‚n‘ roll, resulting in a record that feels both familiar and authentic. From the opening track to the closing number, the album holds together perfectly, offering everything you’d expect from a solid Oi! release—hard-hitting riffs, vocals you’ll be shouting along with in no time, and the atmosphere of pubs, clubs, and the streets that inspired it.
Released digitally on Bandcamp, the self-titled album marks a confident introduction to the scene. If you’ve got a soft spot for uncompromising, honest Oi! that sounds like the glory days of the genre, this is a record you definitely need to check out.
