Strong Island Boot Boys - Pitbull Breed 7" Review in Backstreet Battalion Zine
UNITED RIOT RECORDS/UNDER WATCHFUL EYES - EP -
United Riot Records has started with releasing forgotten demo records from US Oi! and HC bands like Frontline Soldiers, NY Hoods or Strong Island Boot Boys for example in EP format. This is five songs demo recorded back in 2005 under the name Guilty and this is also only thing recorded by the band because one of their members moved to Chile. Other band members are nowadays around the bands like Offensive Weapon, Fed Up! or Skin Disorder. Demo was recorded in three and one member (Al) recorded guitar and also drums. EP is opened by instrumental intro called S.I.B.B. Stomp and on side A are two more songs called Scared of No One and Guilty, on side B are songs called United Skins and Pitbull Breed. Music is typical school of US Oi! – brickwall Oi! with significant bass line and faster and slower parts so fans of bands such as Stormwatch, Battle Cry or Oxblood will surely like it. Most of all I like both songs on B side. EP was released in several colour combinations (but these were just for those who made pre-order so I have “just” the black one). Cover design is made by Muna and inside is just EP with no lyrics and on the back side are band photos. Likeable piece from United Riot Records which isn´t surely the last “lost” record released in that way.
