Exactly, the singer of the DRINK-AND-SING-COMMUNITY (short TSG) is indeed the singer of OXO 86.
OXO 86 has been around for quite a while now. The band has a certain level of recognition, although I can't really grasp it, but tastes vary.
Since 2013, TSG has been active and has now released this album through the Ruhrpott label Sunny Bastards. I can well imagine that the guys and gals at Sunny Bastards like this record. It's basically all about football, in all its facets, whether it's away games, solidarity in the stands, solidarity outside the stands, and the tough life of fourth-division village teams.
The Ruhrpott is basically THE traditional football region in Germany. Whether Dortmund, Schalke, Mönchengladbach, Duisburg, Bochum, Oberhausen, or Essen. Here, football is as deeply rooted as the coal mine and hard work.
Making an entire album about football is quite bold, as it can quickly become boring. Many releases have been forgotten quickly.
And this release, despite the quality of individual songs, cannot hide its lengths. Eleven songs solely about football may appeal to die-hard football fans. Perhaps also to fans of OXO 86, but for someone who doesn't stand in the stands every weekend with a jersey and scarf, this album simply offers too little.
