      oxymoron are one of [and maybe THE best in my opinion] the greatest oi punk bands in the genre. i frequently find myself wishing i had been born 5 years earlier and could've seen them in the 90s. bad co project are good, but just not the same.

      Regardless of being right wing I like to listen to leftist bands like e.g. the Oppressed, Angelic Upstarts or The Clash, Crass, or Conflict....I think they play good music and f..cking great punk rock...I also listen to bands like Skrewdriver both punk stuff and nazi stuff...also Kill Baby Kill, Skullhead, No Remorse...or even Landser...
      MUSIC NEVER DEFINED MY POLITICAL VIEWS...I listen to all punk music...from leftists like Clash, Crass, Conflict, Oppressed, Angelic Upstarts, Los Fastidios, Belarusian Mister X (very SHARP band), through the classics like Cockney Rejects, Cock Sparrer, Sham 69, 4 Skins, The Exploited, G.B.H., Chelsea, The Boys, Generation X, Cyanide, 999, Combat 84, Condemned 84, Infa Riot, etc. and finishing with the bands like Skrewdriver, Skullhead, No Remorse...etc.

Notable also were Time Bomb 77, The Despised, Man's Ruin, Terminus City, The Breakaways, and Bloody Sods.

    Swingin' Utters "Streets of San Francisco" is an all time classic.
    Noi!se and Grade 2 are some of my current favs.
    The Oi/skinhead scenes are really producing some great bands world wide right now.

      Don't forget the classic Brazen Heads EP
      "Here's to Swimmy with bull legged women"
      Also, most the bands listed in this video are just not good musicians. Like come on, we all listened to bad bands at some point, but this was a mega list of just bad bands that literally all sound the same.
      And I'm sorry, but Cock Sparrer just sounds like Pip farting into a snare drum.

The 2 largest communist regimes (Russia and china) were each individually responsible for more death and suffering then the Nazis, I think Mao exterminated like 45 million people or something. Or do Asians not count as much as white Jews?

And you could spend a week talking about all the Bank Holiday riots. All political, but about class, not race. And I do think it is worth noting the civil war that was fought coast to coast against the nazis. If you were active during that time, it was a big deal.

    Actually saw swinging utters with stiff little fingers some years ago and they were fucking amazing (both bands).
    I mainly listen to hip hop now but sometimes I listen to punk/oi and some of the older 77 style bands lile The Boys SLF and the lurkers to change it up and it reminds me of my teenage years in highschool back in the late 90s early 2000s.
