i never said, nor do i think i am a know-it-all i just know that Oi is a subgenre of punk, and don't understand at all why you think it isn't i don't have a problem with you, vegi apparently you have a problem with me, though. yes, skrewdriver is punk. but they suck. they're neo-nazis that sound like the ramones
i don't wanna argue about genre classification but i wouldn't call oi punk skrewdriver is 110% better than the ramones, the ramones suck they may be racist but they had a couple of good songs YouTube - skrewdriver antisocial this for example, not racist and a decent song i'm not saying that skrewdriver are they shit but they aren't entirely garbage. they were primarily a oi band that got over swept with racism. the vast majority of people that listened to oi were working class (often unskilled) and we're sick of guest workers coming to their country, undercutting them on wages and thus outcompeting them for jobs. i'm not condoning racism but its not as if they were racist just to be racist. by the way, wikipedia, seriously don't use that shit, full of uncited bullshit ______________ one of my fav ep's , [Broken External Image]:http://www.7inchpunk.com/wp-content/aof_400.jpg side a YouTube - Articles Of Faith - Bad Attitude http://www.7inchpunk.com/sounds/aof/04-articles_of_faith-what_we_want_is_free-fdm.mp3 side b is on 7inchpunk.com if you want it i'm a 7 inch punk if you know what i mean
I use wikipedia because its the biggest source of information on the internet. Btw that sentence is cited. I respect you vegi, you got good taste in music, and know what's up.

Clean sheets mean a lot to a guy who sleeps on the floor Well, I wanted your love, and a shelf in your dresser drawer you tucked me in, to stop my tossing and turning But I turned back the covers and saw those sheets are dirty Even though you'll never come clean you know it's true Those sheets are dirty And so are you The warmth of a bed to a guy who sleeps on the floor Was enough to perpetuate all the lies I heard before Now I want to hold you, Gotta hold my pillow instead Cause my pillow will never lie or be with a stranger in my bed Where's the love I was looking for It's out the door I'm afraid to see you anymore so it's back on the floor Cause those sheets are dirty Woke up this morning alone on the floor Thinking about those clean sheets and the way it was before When I looked in the mirror, I saw your face and thought of the past But now I know how dirty you are, I took my fist and smashed the glass Those sheets are dirty Those sheets are dirty Those sheets are dirty http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhZN9ylURK0
