Pretty good stuff, the vocals remind me a bit of the Main Street Saints and believe me, that's a good thing. Now there's a band that broke up way too
soon.

By the way, I have a brand new, still sealed copy of "No One Likes Us... We Don't Care" by Condemned 84 that I'm looking to sell. It's their newest
album and I ended up with 2 copies. If anyone is interested I'll sell it for $14 including shipping anywhere in North America. First to pm me gets
it.

Main Street Saints " everybody wants to go to heaven " is one of my favorite oi cds. You are definitely right that they broke up way to soon.
Are any of them doing anything else?

I'm not sure, I heard a rumor that the singer was starting a blues
band and that was part of the reason they split, but aside from that, I really haven't heard a thing.

Putting this in here once again. If no one is interested I'll just list it on ebay.

them.

For me, the one band that defines OI in this country is of course The Bruisers. Check out the compilations by Roger Miret and Onno Cromag, they have
alot of really good bands covering old Skin tunes, awesome stuff

actually the band that defines oi is Forced Reality (featuring the singer of 100 Demons)... they were the influence for the bruisers but there were
hundreds of bands before the bruisers came out... now when it comes to american oi the defining bands would be the bruisers, forced reality and stars
and stripes.. as far as the godfathers and still reigning champs are of the course THE BUSINESS!

I get so lost in these labels/genres/sub genres. Oi, hardcore, metalcore, street punk, emo, pop punk, skinhead. Everyone seems to have such varying
opinions on what the standards are, and which bands fall where. People have told me me DKM is skinhead, but they can't tell me exactly why. Some have
told me the Unseen are hardcore, others say street punk. They could be neither for all I know. In fact, I'm not sure anyone really does know. I've
decided to just stick to whether or not I like it, and let others worry about labels.

Many great Oi bands have been listed in this thread. But I think if I was gonna try to introduce someone to the Oi genre with the one album that they
would be most likely to enjoy, I'd go with "Love Thy Neighbor" by Discipline.
