4 skins - Riot in The Ghetto (Unreleased radio & studio sessions) - LP
In stock
This album contains hits that were once dismissed by critics as mere missteps — critics who condemned Oi! as some sort of fleeting subcultural trend that favored football and violence over actual melody. But these damn good songs truly deserved far more recognition. And 4 Skins prove it — the compilation The Unreleased Radio & Studio Sessions captures that raw energy in its purest form.
From brutal police crackdowns to political injustice — the relentless and uncompromising socio-political messages that echoed from the streets and resonated with every lost “clockwork” skinhead of the era are present in every single track.
After the atmospheric blast of One Law for Them, featured among the live recordings and the fierce tracks from the “Bumper Sessions,” you’ll find the rough-edged centerpiece Evil and the previously unreleased ska-inflected gallop Seems to Me, a track that only reinforces the fact that Oi! has always been about much more than just boots and aggro.
