This and that - 2016



Tracklist:

A1 One Beer, Two Shots
A2 Dead End Street

B1 Outlaw
B2 Can You Hear Me?

Rock & Roll Streetpunk from Italy, inspired by bands like Rose Tattoo, Street Dogs and Hudson Falcons. That´s it......ok wanna read more? Well Dead End Street started as a side project from members of Colonna Infame and Payback in 2011. This is their debut Ep and you can hear that they are veterans.Catchy melodies,screaming guitars and a strong voice, what do you want more?

Difficult to find words for it, the 10 minutes are over before they started. Well in my opinion the best song on this one is "Outlaw". 2 minutes of kickass streetpunk with a great guitar part and the great voice of bandleader Damiano.

Short review i know but hey....this one is really great, and i hope they are allready working on a lp. The EP was released on Aggrobeat and is limited to 340 copies. So go and get it.

I was just out.....get some cigarettes


Well yes you´re right. After 2 1/2 years it´s time for a sign of life. Many things have changed...new job..time is back for stuff like my sweet little blog. Time to start this one again with some new ideas.

This one will be a newsblog in the future...Concertdates,Reviews,upcoming albums from alls over the skinheadworld and a nice special with my Youtube channel >------- Skinpride Worlwide on Youtube
On that one, i will be upload some rarities,demos and music from new bands without any contract.

And to clear things up before....there will be no more uploads any more on this blog...unless it´s material from a band who wants to be on this blog. So let´s start it. And maybe if there´s anybody out there who has time and passion to help me with this thing...write me.

Cheers & Oi

The Morons - Who Let The Morons In(2013) - Review



Tracklist:

1 Who Let The Morons In?
2 Subcultures Need No Trendcunts
3 My Boss
4 Leckt Mich Am Arsch
5 Links Reden, Rechts Leben
6 Wieder Bereit

Mal wieder eine neue Band aus dem Süden der Republik. The Morons kommen aus dem wunderschönen Würzburg, wo ich auf meinen Fussballfahrten nach Frankfurt, Anfang des Jahrtausends, den ein oder anderen netten(vor allem besoffenen) Abend verbracht habe.

Die Combo gibts jetzt nen gutes Jahr und "Who Let The Morons In" ist quasi ihr erstes ersnstzunehmendes Machwerk. Auf die Ohren gibt es traditionellen rauen Oisound ohne grosse Experimente. Errinern mich musikalisch son bisschen an alte Oirecken wie zb. Smegma oder Bierpatrioten. Die 6 Songs auf diesem Silberling sind jeweils zur Hälfte in englisch und deutsch gehalten und haben ne ziemlich klare Mittelfinger Attitüde. Ob Bullen,Studenten oder die hetzende Linksfraktion , jeder bekommt sein Fett weg. "Links Reden, rechts leben" ist ein klares Statement gegen alle Redskins und Szenepolizisten die einen mit ihren ganzen Lügen und Halbwahrheiten auf ihre dunkle Seite ziehen wollen. Wie sagte einst ein hässlicher Mensch mit rasiertem Tiger auf dem Hinterkopf? Nicht mit mir, Freunde der Sonne. Ansonsten gibts die typischen Skinheadlyrics. Working Class,Party,Konzerte und der allseits beliebte Suff.

Kurzweiliges Debüt ohne grosse Überraschungen. Ich bin gespannt was da in Zukunft noch so kommt und vll sollte ich nach vielen Jahren doch mal wieder in den Süden aufbrechen, scheinbar gibts in Würzburg doch noch was zu erleben.  Die Scheibe könnt ihr direkt bei Der Band über die Facebook Page erwerben

4. Dolly D - Ein Bisschen Punkrock (3:04)

14. Dolly D - Ohne Dich (2:22)
15. Dolly D - Wach Auf (3:24)
16. Dolly D - In Der Kneipe (4:08)

20 Jahre - so lange haben es die Partyhaie aus Dresden schon miteinander ausgehalten. Meine Wenigkeit ist ein grosser Fan ihrer Dynamo Songs, trotz ewiger Liebe zu meiner Eintracht aus Frankfurt. Auf "Zeit Zu Spielen" konzentrieren sich die Jungs allerdings auf andere Themen. Passend zum Bandjubiläum gibt es ein knackiges Punkrockalbum auf die Ohren, bei dem die ein oder andere Perle zu entdecken ist.

Fangen wir mal direkt mit dem Song "Ein Bisschen Punkrock" an. Ein absolut hitverdächtiger Song, mit einem Statement das man sich zu Herzen nehmen sollte. "Trends sind vergänglich,Punkrock lebenslänglich". So siehts nämlich aus verehrte Knackwürste. Direkt im Anschluss folgt "Back On The Streets", der ne klare Message rüberbringt. Den alten Zeiten hinterhertrauern is nur bedingt geil, wird Zeit den Arsch wieder auf die Strasse zu hieven. Ein Geburtstagsständchen an sich selbst darf natürlich auch nicht fehlen. Zum Glück fällt das dann auch ohne grosse Melancholie, dafür mit viel Kampfgeist auf. 20 Jahre sind noch lange nicht das Ende! Mein persönliches Highlight folgt dann kurz vor Ultimo mit "Wach Auf"  ein Song voller Verzweiflung,Selbsthass und innerer Leere.

Tja liebe Leute, endlich mal wieder ein Punkrockalbum aus Deutschland, das ich mir ohne Qualen noch einige Male anhören werde. Von mir wird definitiv noch mal die TÜV-Plakete für die nächsten Jahre verliehen. Und was Dynamo angeht, ich drück die Daumen Jungs.

Brutti e Ignoranti - Finche c´e´ Birra c´e´ Speranza(2013) - Review


Tracklist:

1. Non ce n' e uno sano
2. Ora!
3. Carro di buoi
4. Coglione
5. Alcooltest
6. Catnen
7. Vaffancule
8. Falsi Amici
9. Savant
10. Torno a casa
11. Non passa mai
12. Spille E toppe
13. Finche c' e' Birra c' e' Speranza
14. Birra Whiskey & Vino

Damn i got the same problem with this one...don´t understand any word. The only thing i know is that this guys can play.  14 songs in just about a half an hour, catchy fast and full of great refrains. Another good point, they just play skinheadmusic without any red banner shit like many new bands from italy.

Google translator helps a little bit so i think most of the songs are about the scene, drinking and just having a good time. Vaffancule and also Coglione which means lick my ass and asshole is a statement, these guys chose the direct way to make a stand against their enemies. "Torno a casa" leaves a little bit of western feeling in my heart....maybe i should watch The Good, The Bad and The Ugly again.  My favorite song is "Non Passa Mai", full of passion, melody and a great ska part.

Brutti E Ignoranti is the faint hope that italy is not that left-flooded like i felt in the last years. So come on skinheads from Rome,Milan, Torino and so on, fuck off politics and get back to your roots. The album was released on Rebellion Records(DigipackCD and LP)

Maraboots - Dans La Nuit(2013) - Review



Tracklist:

1. Dans La Nuit (3:56)
2. Heros De La Oi (3:29)
3. Ton Choix (4:54)
4. Soldat Perdu (2:28)
5. Plus Rien (3:09)
6. Shlag Station (4:06)

Maybe i should go to school again or make a french course as well...Maraboots is such a great band, but i don´t understand what they are singing about. First time i heard of them, was on the split with the german legends Stomper 98. And their sound really compares with them, especially the saxophone parts.

My favorite song? Everyone(ok if you really wanna know...Heros de la Oi is outstanding). Songs i don´t like? No one. Maraboots is beyond any doubt the best french Oi-Band in the last 10 years. Hope to hear from them again and again and again.....

Very short review, but it´s easier to write more about bad releases than good ones. "Dans La Nuit" is a must have Vinyl! Nothing more to say

Bronco Army - Young Warriors EP(2012) - Review



Tracklist:

A1 - Young Warriors
A2 - Are You With Us
B1 - Anthems Of The Streets
B2 - The Shape Of Things To Come

Templars,45 Adapters and Sydney Ducks, these are the bands i was thinking of, when i started with this EP.
Bronco Army comes directly from the streets of Sao Paulo, and their sound is really rough and low-fi.

The first song is about becoming a skinhead, with some female vocals in the background.  "Are you with us" is an announcement to the whole scene, take it serious or get the fuck out of it. The B-Side starts with a song about the music THEY!!! love(come on guys...Kill Baby Kill...i hope Dieter burns in hell). The last one is a cover from the 1968 movie "Wild In The Streets" which i´ve never heard of before.

Sry guys but this one is not my cup of tea. Don´t like the sound and the Kill Baby Kill thing...EP was released on Stratum Records.

Badlands - World Of Pain EP(2013) - Review


Tracklist:

A-Side Open Road
B-Side Way Of The World

Fuck yes!!! After long years of waiting and the first teaser with two acoustic songs on the EP Capital of Spirit they are back. Badlands ladies and gentleman, with one of the best singers(not just in the Punk/Oi scene) i´ve ever heard.So much melody, so much passion....if we we were in Whatsapp i could paint some heart smilies.....ok enough.

Unfortunately it´s just a 2 Song EP, but better 2 fantastic songs than nothing. On the first side, we have "Open Road", a song about corruption in government and the greed in the business which destroys everything so we have to go our own way. It´s maybe a rocky road but the right one. "Way Of The World" is a very melancholic song about the world be live in today. Painful, dark and full of hate, not the best future for our kids. Viktor´s voice is just perfect for songs like this one.

Ok as a Badlands fan i just have to say......Buy or die!!!! The EP was released on Rebellion Records in different colors

Kids of the Streets - Burn It Down(2013) - Review


Tracklist:

01. This is a Riot [03:15]
02. Headshot [02:58]
03. A Good Day [01:55]
04. Burn it Down [02:49]
05. Tales of the Honour [04:36]
06. Bastards [04:41]
07. Boris [03:42]
08. Mountain River [03:42]
09. Kids of the Streets [05:01]
10. Paradise & Hell [02:37]
11. One of Us [03:08]
12. We'll Stay Alive [04:04]

To be a antiracist skinheadband in russia is not the easiest way to live. Kids Of The Streets from Moskau is 100% proud of that. Fighting against the big naziscene in their homecountry is their mission. And they shout it out loud and agressive. So put up your volume mates.

The music is a little bit of  Street Dogs, Cock Sparrer and a good piece of  Rockn Roll. Sounds like a band from the streets of Boston, the feeling is supported by the singer....of course his english is better than mine hehe.

The 12 songs vary in their sound and speed, on one side we have typical streetpunk songs, like "Headshot" or the smasher "A Good day" on the other we got the folkballad "Tales of the Honour" and the folkpunksong "Boris".  Nothing bores me more than songs which sound all the same. So big plus for the russian guys. The lyrics are....well what do you expect from a antiracist skinheadband? Ok so nothing more to say.

Last words for this one? Hmm good album but not the best i heard the last years from russia. They should work on their lyrics for the next one, the music is already on a good level. Release was on Aggrobeat in 2013(digipack)

Ten Beers After - Bootboy Rock´n Roll(2012) - Review



Tracklist:

1 Fight Back
2 This Battle
3 Together We Are Strong
4 Kaθe Kypiakh
5 One Is Never Enough
6 Bootboy Rock'N'Roll
7 C'Mon Lads
8 Ayteε Oi Mepeε
9 The Flame
10 Raise Your Glasses

Well when you talk about the european skinheadscene, greece is not one of the first countries you think about. Maybe you know Bootstroke or Soberphobia, but thats it.

Ten Beers After comes from Athens and was founded in 2011. Their style is a mixture of Punk,Oi and catchy melodies. Unfortunately 8 of their 10 songs are in english, i like bands singing in their native language as well!! 

The Songs have typical lyrics, nothing new but nice played old school stuff about drinking, solidarity and the daily problems of the scene. I got two favorites on this one, "Bootboy Rockn Roll" is a very melodic song about the good times having with your friends. Break out of the daily routine, live for now till the morning comes!!! "Aytee Oi Mepee" is one of the songs on the album in greek and sounds just great, with the singalongs, the drum-part and of course the language.

Hope to hear more from this guys in the future,maybe with some more songs in greek. The release was on Rebellion Records in 2012 and limited to 250 copies.
