January 9, 2013 – Los Angeles, CA – London’s working class Oi! band BOOZE & GLORY has announced details about their forthcoming full-length album today. The band will release As Bold As
Brass on January 28th via Sailor’s Grave Records, which can be pre-ordered now at http://bit.ly/SGRstore
BOOZE & GLORY suffer no curiosity towards anything but their tried and true brand of hook-laden, red-brick sidewalk stompin', Skinhead Oi! Rock 'N'
Roll. They have no interest in detouring into awkward metal riffs, compromising mainstream tendencies or any other fraudulent leanings. BOOZE & GLORY
stick to who they are, what they know, and what they love — working class Oi!
They herald their love of their favorite football team, West Ham United. They recant the tales of pub sessions with good friends and cold booze and
the struggles of being a drinking man on a workingman's wage. And they tell the stories of friends gone wrong and life gone astray. Influenced by
their English forefathers such as The Cockney Rejects, The Business and the 4-Skins, BOOZE & GLORY are poised to charge forward hard and far as the
primary contemporary carriers of the British Oi! torch.

Love these guys! Can do no wrong in my opinion, every release to date has been great. Hoping they do some US dates this year. BDx13 - 1-16-2014 at 10:11 PM
If they might want other dates, let me know. I book nothing but know a few people related to venues and booking here.
Of course, you can always try to get them on the Bishop's Green shows!!!BDx13 - 2-5-2014 at 08:08 AM
Thanks for picking up the record, guys, we appreciate it. Dennis, did you buy just digital or did you order the album that came with the DL?
Offering digital with the vinyl is new for us, so I'm hoping it worked OK
8/10. "I like my rock and roll to have a little bit of street edge and a chorus that I can scream along with at the top of my lungs to the point
where the next day I’m so hoarse that you can barely understand a word that I’m saying. http://upstarter.com/reviews/punk-reviews/booze-glory-as-bol...
Ordered the vinyl and shirt combo. Got the email with a link for DL the morning it came out. This album is so good! I can't stop singing Down And Out.

Glad you're digging it, Dennis. Also happy to hear the digital DL w/ vinyl purchase worked out.
SO many of these songs stay stuck in my head. "waiting for tomorrow" and "julie" are probably my favorites.BDx13 - 2-10-2014 at 08:00 AM
We'll stick together is probably my favorite song, so catchy! I don't think they have put out a bad song to begin with. BDx13 - 2-10-2014 at 11:10 PM
4.5 Oi's out of 5. They are a power house of a band. Clean, polished production fit their big sing-a-long choruses and dual guitar attack perfectly.
The harmonies that Booze & Glory serve up make them stand out from the pack and stick in your head when the album is done. http://oiofamerica.blogspot.com/2014/02/booze-glory-as-bold-...
“As Bold As Brass” is as authentic of a classic Oi! album as you can get. A modern day Oi! album that is sure to become a classic. “As Bold As Brass”
pays homage to its roots, but it does so with a modern edge. http://www.readjunk.com/reviews/albumreviews/booze-glory-as-...
