DISCIPLINE have mixed Oi with streetpunk and played the sound of the streets when that sound barely existed. DISCIPLINE have shaped it. Now in 2008, they may sound almost old-fashioned with their heavily English-influenced Oi – Punk. Perhaps DISCIPLINE are now old school and part of history, but the band proves with this album that history can still live on.
The Dutch band presents 30 songs on two CDs in “Old Pride, New Glory“.
The first CD contains 12 new songs. 12 cover versions of Motörhead, Agnostic Front, Ramones, Cro Mags, 4 Skins, and even one by Billy Idol. The selection of songs is magnificent. If one didn’t know they were cover versions, one might think that DISCIPLINE wrote the songs themselves. They fit so perfectly. The vocals are rough and from the streets, the arrangements are in the best old school – Oi manner. For that alone, the band deserves great praise.
The second CD contains 18 bonus tracks. All cover versions from the last 10 years of the band’s history. Cover versions from Oi heroes Cock Sparrer and The Business can be found just as much as those from The Misfits, Rose Tattoo, or Social Distortion.
There are no failures on this second CD either. Beautiful old school Oi, sometimes rough, sometimes brash, but always just as it should be. That’s exactly why DISCIPLINE is so well-known. Unfortunately, the band is only playing a few selected festivals this year, but perhaps they will manage to be on the road for a few more days next year. Excitement is guaranteed for the band.
