Proper made up with this , our second single . Girl with the crop and the white bulldog is a true story , an Oi song wrapped around a stomping UK82 riff with an additional vocal from Ska legend Monty Neysmith of Symarip/Pyramids . The second track is our usual UK82/Oi style and titled I fucking hate this . It’s available to download on all platforms and CD’s are available through Subcultz.com

Really sad to hear that my mate Dougie Kane passed away yesterday morning . His love ,friendship and enthusiasm for the common ground we shared was infectious . He was so helpful and supportive of me and Criminal damage Doug was the first person to make me believe in myself as a frontman . We talked about split records , tours and sharing stages with the same wide eyed enthusiasm of a couple of kids and we wore each other’s band shirts , i loved his band , and these things meant the world to me . I’ve met lots of people through music , football but every once in a while you meet someone like Doug and you just know they’ll always have a part in your life , it’s just so sad he’s gone . Rest easy brother , long live life x
After months and months of hard work and rehearsals , two gigs in a week !! . Despite being in the van and on the road at 3am , the 1,000 mile round trip to Dunoon was fine . We payed Friday along with the Cockney Rejects our brothers and sisters Face Up and Tear Up . Decent sized crowd , great welcome and brilliant to see so many Criminal Damage shirts being worn in the crowd . The reaction and enthusiasm after our set and at the aftershow was just phenomenal , unbelievable . As winning hearts and minds goes a massive , massive success . So grateful to Iain Kilgallon for putting this festival on and inviting us to play . Next up , The Great Skinhead reunion , can’t fucking wait 🙌🎶🚢🏴☔️🚚🧨🍺. #uk82punk#the _great_skinhead_reunion #punksandskins#oioiskinheads#punkonthepeninsula#skinheadtattoo#streetpunk#rise .up_oi #face _upuk tear_up_oi #skinheadclassics#punk _and_oi_worldwide
