Templars

Biaus Seignors Freres

TKO

You’ve never been punched in the head until you’ve been punched in the head at a Templars show. Seeing the Templars, being surrounded by fat, bald guys wearing jeans too tight to need the red suspenders they have holding them up, and realizing that, at least for the night, these aggro skinheads have really good taste in music, is weird. But the Templars have a way of playing gritty Oi! like you’ve never heard it. This album is a collection of Templars songs from ‘94 and ‘95, released for the first time now, I guess so that they can prove that they were Oi! when Oi! wasn’t cool. It’s good stuff, though. It hits you like a punch in the head.
