No Bollox Just Oi! (Romania)
Issue 2
Well issue two of 'No Bollox Just Oi!' is out already and first up I'd like to say they've done an awesome job by getting it out so quick.For those who enjoyed the first issue I can say that you won't be dissapointed with the second.Sixty-two jam packed glossy pages of Skinhead info, the majority of which is in English-ya gotta love that!
Quite a few bands get an interview-our very own Marching Orders,Deadline,Beerzone,The Guvnors,Forbidden Kings,Battlescarred,Cenzura,Evil Conduct,The Blood,Scum,Kalevalan Vikingit and Volxsturm.Once again,I enjoyed the international feel and its great to hear about whats going on in other countries(even if I'm geographically ignorant and don't know where they are).Its a wonderful example of how Skinhead has touched almost every nation.
One thing that stands out for me is the humourous and personable
interviewing technique used.Cezar,Cristina and Labush do a great job of
taking the questions one step further so that the reader gets more of a
feel for the people,scenes and motivations.Rather than just a boring
overview of the band.
Inside the pages you'll also find heaps of photos,gig,CD and zine
reviews,all dealt with in an honest,'no bollox' way.Theres also a new
section"Oi! The Counselling" which is good for a chuckle.If theres
anything bothering you,be sure to send ya woes to the No Bollox
counsellors for a warm,gentle,feelgood response!Haha.
Once again,it comes with a sampler CD of all the bands
interviewed,so you can listen along as you read the zine.Which,in my
eyes is doing a great service to said bands.
Probably my favourite thing about "No Bollox Just Oi!" is the
insight we get into these guys scene.They're obviously a friendly,
motivated bunch,making efforts to keep their scene alive by regular get
togethers,trips away and organised sporting events like the Foot Tennis
Championship.
Big two thumbs up guys!!!
