The Blaggers first album was Oi. But later on they added other musical styles to their music.

Y recomend Nucleo Terco and Mencer Vermello, the ones sings in Spanish, the others in Galaecian.

[Искра]

Nucleo Terco are dirty Stalinists! :D

I recommend you Brigada Flores Magon, they are "on the line" :)

If you think Núcleo Terco are dirty Stalinist, wait to hear Mencer Vermello, or even worst Piolet :P

I wasn't aware of these bands. And they're all Spanish... why is that? Is 'anti-revisionism' particularly popular with young leftists there?

[DDR]

Nucleo Terco are Spanish, Mencer Vemello are Glaecian (a region in Spain, but thy dont sing in spanish, they do it in their native lenguaje, Galaecian) Piolet are from south america, idon't remember were.

Yeah, young people are very mad with the revisionist organizations, especially eith the Students Union (which is a sect of damn trotskists)

As for Non Servium, i conseder them Antifascist, and more Anarchist than Comunist. But they are simply one of the best Oi! bands from Spain.

[communard resolution]

Non-Servium are good.

Just had a quick listen to all three bands you mentioned on youtube. My problem is that they all sound exactly the same. But maybe that's the way Stalin would have liked it? ;)

[Mindtoaster]

Fucks sake, i just logged onto revleft to make this exact thread

[Mephisto]

The Commandantes are social democrats, who only adopted this revolutionary style for fun. In fact, the band originally formed for a perfomance on a event of "Die Falken", the social democratic children and youth organization.

Wow I didn't know that "The commandantes are social democrats, but I realy like one their song Der heimliche Aufmarsch

[Mephisto]

Yeah, they mostly covered songs interpreted by Ernst Busch, which was a famous singer of working class songs in the 20s and after the war in the German Democratic Republic.

But if you watch their video "Bandiera Rossa" on Youtube, you'll see that they are waving a flag of "Die Falken".
