Forty years after the release of his classic Oi! The Album, Garry Bushell teamed up with Pirates Press Records to present a ruby anniversary edition: Oi! 40 Years Untamed. This hard-hitting collection features exclusive, unheard songs from Oi! pioneers, and original tracks from younger, up-and coming bands from around the world.

Oi! was a form of raw working class punk that developed in England as a reaction against the dilution of punk’s original ethics and energy. As early as 1977, street punks were disillusioned with rip-off Kings Road boutiques and the fact that many punk heroes were living a lie. The Cockney Rejects and the Angelic Upstarts were the start of something new, raw and authentic. Bushell called it “Oi!” This New Punk percolated in backstreets, on football terraces and on building sites, in classrooms, pubs, tattoo parlours and police cells. Its songs were about workers’ rights, football hooliganism, police oppression and unemployment with a side order of beer and pilchards. Consequently the Oi! sound was harder, the choruses bigger, the anger more real. Oi! was of the streets, from the streets and for the streets....which is why it has touched a nerve all over the globe, inspiring scenes everywhere from Europe to Indonesia, via Australia, Japan, Russia, Canada, Switzerland and the USA. Its message remains the same: The kids, united, will never be defeated.
