The Skarhead video got age restricted by Youtube
January 14th 2010
Yesterday, January 13th, the new Skarhead video got flagged by the YouTube community. It seems that the "booties" are to explicit for anyone younger then 18 years old.
So in order to view the video you now need to sign in and tell them you're 18 and over (and if you're not just say you are).
You can also view the video without any age verification anywhere someone used the HTML codes and embedded the video on their page(s).
Looking at what else is available on Youtube for anyone to see we find this decision very disapointing. Sadly enough Youtube LLC & the Google corporation don't have any costumer support and therefor independent companies or independent artists can't even fight such restrictions.
The worldwide premiere of the new Skarhead video
January 12th 2010
Today we proudly give you Skarhead with "P.S.P.", the second video from the album "Drugs, Music & Sex".

“Oi! is about uniting punks, skins and everyone”. growler Millwall Roi told Sounds in their first interview ever.
"You'll Never Take Us" is set for release on May 8th 2009 in Europe and on June 23rd in the USA. The Last Resort will perform at all relevant European festivals after which they'll head out to the US again. The current line-up consists of Jonesy on drums, former Anti-Nowhere League members JJ Kaos on bass and Beef on guitar of course alongside of Roi.
“You’ll Never Take Us” is THE album the entire Oi! scene has been waiting for.
It’s all go for The Last Resort...Oi! Oi!

Discipline, the undefeated kings of European Street Rock!!
In 1999 Discipline and I Scream Records joined forces to start a collaboration that would propel Discipline into becoming one of the biggest European Street Rock bands of the last decade, even outselling some of their own musical heroes. Since, the bands has released 4 studio albums, numerous EP's, a live split with Agnostic Front, the 2008 cover album "Old Pride, New Glory" and a first compilation of tracks released, in 2003, in collaboration with Captain Oi! Records.
Today 10 years after the first release for I Scream Records we're are very proud to announce the release of the Discipline Anthology album. A double CD, with 28 of some of Discipline's best tracks released, for the US market only. A musical recap from the undefeated kings of European street-rock for the price of 1 CD.
This summer they're finally also back on tour in the USA, playing the BnB Bowl (formerly known as the Superbowl Of Hardcore) on May 30th in Brooklyn, NY after which they'll embark on an East Coast Tour with Stigma and special guests.
"Little needs to be said when it comes to one of the most important and influentual street rock bands of this century! Discipline sets the standard with their genuine and melodic sound! Making the tough get tougher but this is the real kick in the ass needed for today's generation! A real Hooligan's Heaven!" - Roger Miret (Agnostic Front)
''DISCIPLINE are like modern day vikings . They will rock your world and leave a path of destruction in their wake !'' - Al Barr (Dropkick Murphys/The Bruisers)

Skarhead and I Scream Records ink worldwide deal
We are very excited to announce the signing of Skarhead for the release of their long awaited new record "Drugs, Music and Sex".
Skarhead was founded in 1995 by Lord Ezec and released the EP "Drugs, Money, Sex" that same year.
In 1999 their follow up album, "Kings At Crime" took the worldwide hardcore scene by storm and instantaneously became one of the all time classic hardcore records.
Today 10 years after the release of "Kings At Crime" Lord Ezec is back as frontman of the worlds most infamous hardcore bands.
"Drugs, Music and Sex" is recorded and mixed by Dean Baltulonis (Sick Of It All, Madball, Agnostic Front) and produced by Lord Ezec. The album features guest appearances by some of hardcore's greatest such as Freddy Cricien, CIV, Jorge Rosado, Jamey Jasta, Armand & Craig from Sick Of It All, Vinnie Stigma and more.
The album is currently being mixed and set for release late Summer 2009.
"I have chosen I Scream Records for the release of "Drugs, Music & Sex" because it is a true street flavored hardcore label. To me I Scream is the epitomy of hardcore music and no one gets more hardcore then Skarhead!!! So get ready for true N.Y.H.C. music made by the best in the business. A record that will make you bug the fuck out. Skarhead Rules!!!" - Lord Ezec.
Laurens says: "It's an honor to have Skarhead join our roster. The 30 something year old guys and girls out there who deny driving down the highway at full speed with "Kings At Crime" blasting during the nineties are just lying. "Drugs, Music and Sex" will take you right back there. TCOB!!!"

Hoods founded in Sacramento, CA, in 1995 by Mike Hoods have grown into a Hardcore institution. Their music is a call to arms for all of those who have grown tired watching Hardcore be exploited and bastardized. Mike Hood has used his years of experience to craft one of the most brutal and honest West Coast Hardcore bands ever.
Hoods have released several albums on a number of independents and now the long-awaited new album "Pit Beast" is set for release in May 2009.
“14 years and we’re still here. Still playing Hardcore, still having fun and bringing the mosh. I had no idea when I started Hoods if we would even last a year. With so many ups and many more downs we definitely made our mark. Not only for West Coast Hardcore but all over the world. I live, eat and breathe this music". Mike Hood
Laurens says: "We are excited to join forces with Hoods in the year I Scream Records is celebrating its 15th anniversary. They're one of the hardest working bands out there and a great addition to our roster"
Hoods are on tour in North America in April 2009 and will invade Europe in May 2009. Make sure to check 'em out at a venue near you.
