Oi Of Sex, The - Various Artists

Advantages: Punk, punk and more punk
Disadvantages: No Clash!?!

...I brought this ablum just as I was getting into 70's/80's punk but knew very few of the less mainstream bands (just bands like the clash and the sex pistols), so I bought it. I wasn't disapointed with most of the songs on this compalation but there are a few the weren't my thing.

To appreciate some of the tracks, you need to have a bit of a sense of humour, and to a casual listener, tracks may sound too similar to one another.
