Re: Oi

I see where your coming from metallideth, thats a fair point. I was expecting them to be in the Conflict/Varukers mold when I first saw 'em, but they're definitely a lot slower and as evillin says, sing-a-long choruses which make them more oi-like in my mind. But hey, good band enough said.

Its just labels really, and when you look at Oi bands like Cock Sparrer & The Business especially, the range of different styles they have is quite big, The Business verge on hardcore Exploited-like tunes and also melodic slow stuff on their Suburban Rebels album then ended up sounding a bit like Iron Maiden with some of their hit & miss late 80s stuff. Though I'm sure Quorthorn would have loved it .
