Barney and the Rubbles

'I like Beans, I like sauce,

I Like sexual intercourse'

Barney Rubble, poet, philospher and comedian. His band the Rubbles were a collection of ICF/Skin/Mods famous for songs such as Up against the 'Wall ('Do em all, Kill Millwall!'). Rubble was also responsible for catchphrases such as 'well suspect' and 'gotta ave it'. The track 'Bootboys' on Oi the Album comes the closest to Oi meets PIL.

Serious Drinking

Steel Comb

An active newer Scottish band - if you like the classic lo-fi, midtemp, melodic uk oi sound then this right is up your alley - they could easily have been some lost band from Oi! Records. They have at least one 7" out and have some songs on at least 2 compilations. They've had numerous lineup changes, so check out all of their material for variations on their sound and different versions of songs, including different singers. In case you're an american scratching your head as to what the fucks up with their name - sharpened steel combs were handy concealed weapons when running around being a violent little bastard.
