  • Tony wilson i hope your dead. are you still sucking black cock and taking it up the gary(glitter). Black youth stand in the night ETC ETC. The second line is WHITE YOUTH stand in the night. what the fucks wrong with you. Not only do your bit for the bastard do gooders but being stuck up your employers arsehole that far is not good for your health.

  • If u think ur a skinhead and your racist ur just a fucking poser.

  • Fuck the Paki's and foreign skum they have done no good only bad. Long live the skins.

  • @SuperMagpie09 Nice one oi! oi!

  • THAT JOURNALIST TONY WILSON [ NOT THE GREAT MR MANCHESTER] IS A FUCKING LIAR LIKE ALL THOSE UPPER CLASS JOURNOS.THEY ARE THE WORST RACISTS POSSIBLE,AND WORSE.THAT CUNT ONCE DRESSED UP AS TRAMP AND TOLD LIES ABOUT THEHOMELESS.

  • white power baldie

  • I left my video recorder on by mistake once and it recorded a late night documentary about the Southall riots, watching it back I was surprised to see a portion of the interview with the 4Skins in the pub setting up their gear that had been edited out of the interview and never shown, and like a mug I lent it to someone who "lost it". Lost the whole known interview and the extra bit from the documentary. Cheers Alf.

  • ero a londra in quei giorni!! purtroppo gli abitanti di southall se la sono presa con le persone sbagliate!! la disinformazione ha fatto da padrona! i porci del nf non avrebbero mai avuto il coraggio di entrare in southall!

  • medios de DESINFORMACION!

  • Aaaw,media bullshit,I dont even know why we watch this

  • Thanks to the person who put this on. I remember it first time around when it as on the news. Interesting.

  • what the fuck is this bullshit

    fuck boneheads

    fuck middle class yuppie scum

  • What fucking bollocks. "Oi ain't about, havin a fight, oi ain't about black v. white." Learn your fucking basic facts before you make your news programs

  • Oi bands are anti black!!?? LMAO. i worked with a fella who was at the southall riot and there was black skinheads at that gig!! oh yeah really racist anti black. MEDIA BOLLOCKS AS USAL.

  • @daveyRIR I had a long term girlfriend who was Asain and into OI, I also knew an Arabic Skin Oi fan (in London). What is also ignored is the dedications on the OI LP's, even before the media created their bogus outrage the dedications were to diverse people such as Nelson Mandela & the A.F.C, Che Ceuvara, Alf Garnet (who, for non British readers is a piss take charactor of bigotted working class British people).The Business play Crass tunes live, the list goes on.

    Media bollox is right.

  • "Dude", you're American. Hence, you don't have a fucking clue about the UK skinhead scene. There is no mention of "colour" or "pride" in Chaos. The BNP had zero street presence in the early 80s.

    "Early skinhead movement" in This Is England? What, you mean over 10 years after the first skins appeared? The film's set in the early 80s, you fucking trumpet.

  • "Hence", you're quite an egocentric prick. There isn't one thing I've posted that is untrue. I love the band but facts are facts and that's the way it is. I've spent quite a great deal of time in England over the past decade and I feel that I'm well informed on the skinhead culture that exists there. I've also spent my entire life in close association with numerous skins. So take your assumption and cram it up your elitist ass for all I care.

  • super documentary!

  • Comment removed

  • The BNP didn't even exist in the early 80s - it was the NF and BM. Tom McCourt was about as far away from fascist as could be, and Steve Pear was a rockabilly nut who happened to play guitar.

    I can't think of a single 4-Skins lyric that could be construed as fascist. "One Law For Them" is about the double standards applied by the police to working class riots and student riots - hence the Eton toffs on the cover. Pretty fucking obvious.

  • Check out the 2008 east coast oi fest "I Dont Wanna Die" and tell me they aint nationalistic.

    You also seem to have forgot about guitarist Paul Swain who went on to play for Skrewdriver!

  • ya and a former conflict drummer was in the band too.does that make them veggies??

    the whole oi thing was a time and a place.too many experts on here who werent even born then

  • whats the name of the song at 6:00 ???

  • Yes man, I´d like to know the same.

    I think they´re "Beggars" from Wales, but have no idea the name of the music

  • Blood on the streets, is Criminal Class

  • thanks for the post this is more of the stuff we need. these videos are quickly becoming a rarity.

  • you have nothing but oi videos your a sissy piece of shit

  • your are gonna put a 4skins video on here and fuckin censor people

  • The landlord must have been a right mug to think a C&W band ould be called 4Skins, or have support from C&W bands called the Business and Last Resort. lol.

    can anyone help me out

  • The Business - Blood On the Streets

    I'm not shure but I thing that that is the song @ 3:38

  • Comment removed

  • The bonehead on the cover of the OI lp came out of prison, and out of the closet. He died of A.I.D.S some time after, caught from being a rent boy.

  • That band in the Acklam Hall is Beggar?

  • ProperStuff, your the racist you tosser but you have to hide behind your pseudonym.. the trouble wasnt started by skinheads but by cowards outside who only had the balls to start once we were in the pub and completly surrounded (as anyone who went to the hambrough would know how easy it is to do that), when we steamed outside and fought back we were as usual blamed by the toilet press for starting it.take it from someone who was actually there and didnt just read it in the news. NOT RASCIST.

  • wtf? have it all wrong skinheads arent racist, its all the fuckin boneheads that are nazi cunts, and just cuz joy division was named after a german pub means they're neo nazi? BOLLOCKS!!

    OI OI!

    PUNKS AND SKINS!

  • whitch side are they on finnally(4skins)

    i hate those ambivalent band who just tell you

    to take action without telling for who and against who so fuck em

    for those interested look for recent Business

    video the singer proudly wear the 88 symbol on is chess funny people have made the line up thru the years

  • It's not an 88 you dolt. It's tribal garbage.

    Call Mickey a racist to his face and see how long you last.

  • the business arent rascist or neo nazi/fascist.

  • The 4Skins is a name that seems to refer to themselves as "uncircumcised gentiles". If you wanna say that's antisemitic, go ahead. There's nothing wrong with a little humor.

    Skin'ead is all about working class white British, and even Christian values. The Saint George's cross sums it up. It isn't necessarily racist. There are also black Jamaican immigrant skin'eads, but they conform to the skin'ead way of life.

  • It was unknown that he was NF scum, until after they released Strength Thru Oi.

  • I didn't thought tv manipulation were so common in UK. Poland, UK - tv is the same brainwashing shit.

  • They're not racist god damnit! They are Oi!

  • damn pakis

  • They're not racist god damnit

  • what about paul swain.....

  • You wouldn't be a SHARP if you were racist, and it wouldn't b Oi!

  • He left the 4-skins to go to the neo-Nazi band Skrewdriver.

    I'll admit, it's definitely hard to tell that 4-skins aren't racist with all their lyrics of violence, but I can assure you they're not.

  • skrewdriver are fuckin mint!

  • "it's definitely hard to tell that 4-skins aren't racist with all their lyrics of violence, but I can assure you they're not."

    Thank you mr. politically correct.

  • so there NOT nazis right?

  • Yes no Nazis!

    JUST unpolitical Oi!skins

    cheers n Oi!

  • Comment removed

  • fuckin bbc should piss off. oi rules!

  • This is so bias. Oi! was an easy scapegoat to cover up all the other bullshit going on. They should quote some reggae lyrics coz thats some serious black power music. White people couldn't get away with saying anything like what is said in reggae. Oi! forever

  • This "documentary" is just so fucking filled with ignorance it's ridicilous.

  • Aint these the ones who died in a car crash

  • @rentchart It was the Skrewdriver singer who died in the car crash. The 4Skins were not part of the same scene.

  • he quoted the criminal class song 'blood on the streets'

  • Thats halirous, didn't that guy on the front of that cover turn out to be gay?

  • yea on the cover of "strength thru oi!"

  • @nuzuk (Go to page 7 of the comments) The bloke on the cover of the OI LP not only turned out to be gay, he became a rent boy (male gay whore) after 'coming out' while in prison (religion is usual in those cases I thought lol), he eventually died from AIDS he had contracted while selling himself to fat, drunk businessmen. He even started talking in a camp manner. He did although express regret regarding his previous racist crimes (although Im not 100% sure about that last part as I am the rest).

  • Gangsta' Rap is anti-female, anti-white, anti-police, and pro-violence and the media and record companies embrace it. Friggin' hypocrites.

  • thats right.....and the the only reason we are anti white is bcos of the treatment we have received from individuals like you.....although i know u dont harm anyone...you just a silly white boy hiding behind a keyboard.

  • Since when did the 4 Skins associate themselves with the NF, lyrically or in press?

    This piece was pretty obviously skewed in order to blackball the band. "Pro violence, anti black, and anti police". Right, and so if you're anti police (more correctly, anti police brutality), you're automatically lumped in with the other two. Add Hunter Thompson and MLK Jr to that list then!

    And note: The newscaster never once quoted any 4 Skins song at length. That's because there's nothing racist therein.

  • lol hambrough taverns my grandads local pub

  • PORRADA NA ORELHA

    OI!

  • PORRADA NA ORELHA

    OI!

  • this pub is the prince of wales in mottingham rd se london. i was there. the boy in the union jack tee shirt was will dieghton, a well liked carrector who is now sadly dead

  • I believe that's Tom Robinson at the end.

  • Seems to me that these days, it's fine you beat up and name call white's for past descretions. My Boys have been taught Ju Jitsu from an early age and smash coons and coconuts until they realise that size ain't shit!!!

  • And as I recall, the fuckin' asians started it that night

  • The 4 skins tell the reporter thier not racist and 2 seconds later he says they hate blacks. That reporter is a fucking hand job. 4 skins rule. Going to see them at oi! fest in may.

  • What band is it that plays 06.00?

  • some anti fa band.

  • Fuck the NF...long live the 4 Skins

  • i was at south all and the pakies threw petrol bombs through the doors and attacked people on there own if u anti racist belive what the 4skins say then you would know the truth that the asians started it by listen to one law for them learn to open your eyes fools

  • so called "Oi-bands"?

    what a wanker

  • fucking posh middle class toe rag bastard reporter.

  • Last Resort, Blitz, and Combat 84 are all playing again. How bout 4 skins?

  • they will reales a new album this summer,(with gary as a leadsinger) but they are not thinking of playing live yet. but maybe, if we are lucky.

  • There playing eas coast oi fest.

  • yeah they are playing at PUNK & DISORDERLY FESTIVAL, in berlin (germany) 23 february to.

  • People are so misinformed about Southall. 4-Skins racist? fuckin bollocks. The Business and The Last Resort supported them. Dickheads!

  • it was 25 years ago, the world was a different place then.

    As I recall, South Hall destroyed the 4 Skins but was god sent marketting oppurtunity for bopth falvours.

  • EVERYBODY knows the 4 Skins weren't racist, DOI. They were part of the first wave of what was to be named 'Oi', which was more or less punk played by skinheads. Even their name is a double entendre (look it up) - how u gonna launch a race war with dick jokes?! Lighten up u silly people, haha..

  • 4-skins are not racist on nazi! so fuck you

  • 4 skins are for sure not right winged scum

  • You're an idiot. The 4-Skins as a band may not have been racist, but they were pretty damn right-wing (we all know how leftists love to refer to east Asians as Pakis). Also Paul Swain apparently was a racist. He went on to play for Skrewdriver on the 'Blood and Honour' LP.

    4-Skins rule though.

  • oi oi forever take note

  • fuck nazi!fuck media!fuck bastard!

    we don't to be like you!!

  • OI!!! 4 skins are fucking awesome!!! its our Oi! music....people are so stupid, the brittish movement is a nazi movement, no fuckin way, ENGLAND FOR ENGLANDERS and now they gotta share with people they conquered before, jsut gotta breed more to boost the white population!!! no need to fight, they want a race war, then fuck more... and get your strength through OI!!!

  • i fuckin' love oi. i think ANYTHING musically that causes any form of reaction is fuckin' ace because afterall this is supposed to be just music. whatever emotion it is. this includes ANY emotion. rock out with your cock out!

  • what the fuck!!

    FUCK NAZI!!FUCK MEDIA!!FUCK BASTARDS!!!

  • Oi! Fucking cunts! What a load of bullshit, media just have not the ability to speak the trooth. Fucking liars.

  • Skiheads and nazis are two diferent things

  • hello im from sweden, and my gf is going to London soon, and im wonder if she can buy: ACAB,4-Skins,Last Resort, The Bsiness or 100% British Oi! and Oi! this is england,CAN she buy any of those in a normal cd store there?, central london then..

  • u can order them from hmv or virgin for cds ike the bissiness.

  • i thought it was called 4 skins because of the 4 races. (latins, whites, asians, blacks)

    is that why??

  • Huh? Are you serious? Four races of what? What are Polynesians, Indians, Australian Aborigines and Semetics if they are not races?

  • There are no races

  • They were called 4-skins cuz there was 4 in the band, they were all skinheads and if it's not written, it sounds like foreskins!!

  • but they werent really all skin heads, were they, i mean howton tom was a mod/suedehead and pear was even a rocker!

  • what are skins? are they just nationalists? some one tell me the diff between skins and nazi's!

  • I fuken hate when people think that skins are nazis..retards don't know shit. Oi!

  • Oi Oi!

    Don't feel guilty about nufin!

    Fuck politics

    Fuck right wing

    Fuck left wing

    ACAB

  • I'm pretty sure they weren't NAZIs as one of them is Jewish. A pretty sure fire way to piss off your Jewish mates is to be a NAZI.

  • punx who wore swastikas weren't nazis,just provocation

  • I know but Oi bands with nazi flags flying and people doing straight arm salutes at them generally are nazis, or at least not against them

  • yes agree,but maybe not everybody knows about sid vicious wearing a swastika.I just said it to warn people who don't know that much about the english scene in the 80s

  • I don't like it if you don't know if a band is anti-racist or racist....

  • who cares, music is music.

  • SMACK ON MATE WHITE POWER.

  • nobhead

  • I'm anti you... anti someone who wants to see people who kill uss... I saw my friends come frieds come here, I am suppossed to take that and have terrorist attyemts on here becacause you think it's allritrgh? I'd have you fucking shot! All bloody terrorist shood be shoot!.

  • XD! That didn't mean anything!

  • "I don't feel guilty about nothin'". Right on.

  • If you want to no the truth about Oi then check Garry Bushell on Oi. Most of them cited some immigrant ancestry from Irish to Pakistani through Russian Jew. There were various black and asian Oi fans at the gig in Southall. Jewish skinhead Tony Stern from Epping claimed to know "loads of Jewish skins and no one gets any trouble, where are all the 'Nazi' skins now, that's what I wanna know."

  • i wish i could go back in time!!

    80's forever!

  • 4 skins was be an apolitic bend. Lisen the song 1969. In 1969 first music was be the ska, regge... And why the firs words in that song is "do you remember of 1969"?

  • That doesn't mean shit, Plenty of racists like foreign food, art, and music. It doesn't mean they aren't racist, hell even the 1969 skinheads went around bashing immigrants. I've seen videos of skinheads talking about how they like ska bands and nazi punk bands. just because they like ska doesn't mean they're anti racist, besides the songs says 1969 because that was when there was the most skins before the 80's

  • everyone was beating immigrants in 69, except for Beatniks.

  • non of the bands where racist... some of the BM ass-holes at the concert where and those are the ones who sturred up trobule. The Bassist- Tom was natorious for being part of the Cockney Rejects Firm who regularly beat the living shit out of nazis in the crowds of their gigs. Read Jeff Turner's book- it talks all about the riot and the Oi! scenes violent opposition to Racism.

  • People lie about the past to look good, Mickey Fitz now claims that he doesn't allow nazis at their gigs but I've seen pictures from that late 80's of them playing in front of a big swastika and every body around them straight arm saluting, including two security guys on the stage right next to mickey. There is no accurate book about oi, all of them are biased in one way or another.

  • and Fitz helped organize the "Oi! against Political extremeism, but still against the system" tour. And If you'd please- i'm not being smart- I'd like to see this pictures of fitz. Micky also wouldn't let C18 security work for him despite the fact that C18 wouldn't supposedly let any Oi! show happen without their Security there. He was the first to publicly decry all that shit in a scene that wasn't very open about it initialy.

  • So he claims, he's doing it because he wants to appeal to the left wing punk audience, because there are a lot more of them than there are skinheads. I'll put a link to the photo on your comments but I can't put links in general comments because you tube is against links(wankers)

  • haha- i know. I hate the links thing.

  • That was the stupidest thing i've ever read. Where did you see that picture? Business was and is a punkband with a skinhead (and they are all racist aren't they?) at the mike and if there where a "oi" band that was 100% non-racist it was (and is) them. You seem to belive what you want to belive and not facing the truth at all.. too bad for you.

  • not all skins a racist but any skins or punks who play in front of swazis and nazi banners are clearly not anti racist.

  • I saw the link you posted on punkace's profile,maybe your little talk was none of my business,but I also saw the pic and it really looks like everybody there is a nazi,racist or something like that,maybe that's why the business doesn't do anything,because beating up some racists is another thing then fucking up 100 people or so ;D

  • 4 skins is not a nazi bend. They are are just a skinhead bend. Skinhead can' t be nazi!!! Oi!!!

  • Yeah they can, paul swain from the 4 skins was in skrewdriver

  • before or AFTER he was in the 4-skins?

  • after but he was a prominent member of the nazi skinhead scene during his time in the band. A lot of bands try to lie about what happened in the 80's so I'm not sure of the specifics of paul's NF involvement but I have read that he was very deeply into it for almost all of the 80's. He is also said to have been friends with the ovaltinees, london branch, and the die hards during his time in the 4 skins.

  • I don't know about that- if he was in support of it I doubt... HIGHLY doubt he was public about it. Like I've said before- I've only read about Tom beating the crap out of boneheads at concerts.

  • paul swain was very openly racist and the others weren't really opposed to it either, Today people from those days lie about what happened because they are ashamed of the truth, there are also nazi who lie saying anti-nazi bands are their bands too, so the truth is hard to find but a ton of Racist bands claim they weren't now like ABH or Anti Social.

  • The drummer of ABH posted the video concrete jungle of them here on youtube,at least he says that he was the drummer and I asked him if ABH was a nazi band and he said the band broke up because of the politics,I don't know if he told me the truth

  • All I know is they were on the "this is white noize" comp with the die hards, skrewdriver, and brutal attack. Today they claim they weren't racist but so do indecent exposure despite the fact they have a song with the lines "england my england we are white forever" & "there ain't no black in the union jack and that's the way it'll say" It's changed on their LP but in their demos availible on soulseek it's all there

  • okay,then they suck :D

  • Indecent exsposure were not a Nazi band..patriotic, nationalist,right wing views but certainly not nazi. the band played with skrewdriver but also the business,desmond dekker,bad manners and king kurt which is never mentioned. you can have right wing views without being a nazi. feelings were running high in the early 80's you have to remember the band were all 18 years old and there was alot of shit going on then, so dont tell me we were nazi's i should know cos i was in the band.

  • i read in spirit of 69 that one of their drummers used to be in conflict.hardly ss membership there.i think they just didnt give a fook.warts and all.wont say sorry to you

  • He LEFT 4-skins to be in skredriver

    and after hodges left they had like 4 ska songs, so they're not...

  • The Pakis had started that riot. They had invaded and settled in Southall. Southall is a white neighborhood in a white city in a white country. If white folks, such as skinheads, wanted to go down there and see a gig, then so what? It's their own fucking city, neighborhood, country, and whatever else.

  • The Pakistanis where agitated by BM (Bowel movement as I like to call it)- when you're presented with people kicking in your windows and there's a large contingent of people who look like the blokes who did it- who are you going to think did it?

  • First of all, I probably know as much about the problems in England with the Pakis and other non-white dregs as you do. Secondly, Canada too has all this non-white shit to put up with and Canadians are fucking mad.

  • It was the NF not the british movement and why the fuck do you side with the pakis, they're the invaders throwing petrol bombs in windows of a tavern

  • And the people at the gig looked like the people who kick in their windows. I'm not for that sorta violence- but it was all retrobution. Chicken and the egg- which came first we'll never know. Anyway- it was only a few pakistanis who started it. The next thing most of em knew- there where people pushing around thier neighborhood looking pissed.

  • I just read an acount of Southall on an Oi! Forum. It turns out that the police regularly beat the shit out of asians in the community and killed an asian fella a month or two before the gig. Now- a few asians ended up in front of the pub after the gig started and Police arrived in a line in front of the pub- this attracted every angry asian in the area to throw shit at the police- not the skinheads. The skinheads where innocent 100%... if anyone 1 group is at fault- it was the police.

  • good video.
