The Angelic Upstarts are one of my all time favourite punk bands. My brother had a copy of "Angel Dust" when we were kids that I listened to the grooves out of. When I found out they were coming to town I worked every angle I knew trying to get an interview. Even on the day of I still wasn't sure that the interview would happen. The Prowlers and AFA brought the upstarts here at the end of May this year and the promoter (Ewan) had told me when to show up to the club and wait around. he was a huge help in introducing us to Mensi and Mensi agreed to a sit down that was recorded. I was super nervous about meeting this singer that I have so much respect for and have held onto many of his lyrics so it was a dream to be able to ask him about songs that I had only ever wondered about. For the show I live mixed in songs from the Upstarts back catalogue that get asked about in the interview. Hope you enjoy this retrospective look at these fascist fighting oi boys from the north who dared to stand up to Thatcher and her tory vendetta to break the miners.

Tonight's show started out with the piecing together of the studio 3 session of Skunx. Skunx are a local oi trio that reminds me a lot of Blitz in terms of guitar sound. The singer sings in English, Portuguese as in the Dose Brutal cover and Spanish in their new song "Delincuente Adolescente", which is great to hear. Below is the how we heard the interview and session mixed together also including a couple of songs on their bandcamp page.

Gio, the singer from Skunx, is a fan of futebol and music from South America. Given that Argentina played in the final, the first two bands are from the country tha is the runner up in the tournament. But this set also has bands from the host country (Brazil) and some bands from other countries in the tournament (Uruguay) and Venezualan.

COMANDO SUICIDA - Y ya o ve (Pure Impact / Crowbar)
ALERTA ROJA - Situacion Limite (Pinhead)
DOSE BRUTAL - Vadia (Radykaos)
CARBONARIO - Operario Brasileiro
LOS INVASORES - Dr. Demetrio
LA SEGURIDAD NACIONAL - Oi Tudo (ST2 Music)
OHLO SECO - Nada (ST2 Music)

The last two bands appear come from the audio for a documentary titled "Botinada - The origin of Punk in Brazil. Gio shared a link to an upload of the documentary with some English subtitles. 



We had a set for Germany, but we ran out of time but the recent Stage Bottles single represented the international spirit of the tournament. Urban Blight covered Upright Citizens in Studio 3 so here it is again. Beav was just in town this weekend.

STAGE BOTTLES - One World One Crew
URBAN BLIGHT - Bombs of Peace (CIUT)

Tonight's demo feature is a band from France that I read about in the June issue of MRR. In the Skunx interview Gio tolsd a story about the Hired Goons likening the Skunx sound to French oi. We just happened to read about a new french oi band so we thought it dovetailed the show nicely. Here is a review from the June issue of MRR. The demo can be downloaded at http://syndrome81.bandcamp.com/.
