Skinhead Oi is a raw, energetic subgenre of punk rock synonymous with the working-class skinhead subculture that first emerged in the UK in the late 1970s and early '80s. It blends elements of punk with the aggression and simplicity of streetpunk, while also drawing influences from early British rock and pub rock. The music is characterized by its straightforward guitar riffs, anthemic choruses, and sing-along verses, often featuring lyrics that tackle themes of working-class pride, social unity, and urban grit. While sometimes controversial due to past associations with political extremism, its unpolished sound and rebellious spirit continue to echo the genre's ethos of camaraderie, resisting commercialism, and giving a voice to the street-level experiences of its followers.
