this is not a Combat 84 cover and is probably the best song on their first tape.













missing songs "Clockwork Testament", "Backlash", "Vicious Rumours" & "1916" from split with Oi Polloi (& later redone as split with the Strike instead).

1987 Demo

Skin Up

These are from their '84 demo. There are 2 other songs on the demo that are missing from youtube. This band also has rehearsal recordings. This is the kinda shit only people like me wanna listen to. Can't get enough.

Cockney Rejects

Besides bands before them like Sham 69 and Cock Sparrer, this is THE fucking band. As you probably already know, Gary Bushell supposedly coined the music as "oi" from the Oi! shouted at the beginning of the Rejects' classic song, "oi oi oi". I will fill in other songs later, not like you need any help finding Rejects material...
 






on the fence about including their other albums...

Criminal Damage

updated to include both demos

On Parole

There is one song missing on this page from their only tangible release, their '82 Demo, besides getting a track from it (Condemned) on the 2nd "A Country Fit For Heroes" compilation and a limited unofficial release of the same song onto 7" just this year. Apparently they had a 2nd demo that was lost to time...

ABH

They were not an RAC band, but they made the mistake(for lack of a better word?) of participating on the "This is White Noise" comp. ep in support of their patriotic views.

Skin Deep (1)

This is their 2 demos and "Football Violence" ep, their only proper release. the last 2 songs are a different Skin Deep.

Skin Deep (2)

One of two Skin Deeps, this one going the ska/soul pop route with a few rare oi songs, and the other was strictly oi.




live video with their sound transitioning from oi to ska/soul (pre-saxophone...)


this band turned into a ska/soul pop group. which they may have been from the beginning but made 2 great oi numbers. the next one is sort of a blend between their sounds. The video shows what they are really known for

Vicious Hamsters

they have more songs out there somewhere... looking for the demo!

the Business

This was their first full length recordings, originally meant to be called "Loud, Proud & Punk", but the recordings went missing and resurfaced later under the "Smash the Discos" title.


1st single


First released full length, essentially the "Loud, Proud & Punk" (smash the discos) full length, re-recorded. This video has their second 7" attached to it - "Smash the Discos" - not to be confused with their original full length recordings which later resurfaced with the same title.


3rd single


Their 2nd proper studio full length. If you don't count the "live" album previous to it, which apparently was recorded in the studio with crowd noises dubbed in later?!. This video has their 4th ep attached to it - "Get Out Of My House" - the title track being a cover of 70's hard rock band, Hustler. Hear the original HERE.
