While Oi! had its roots in the working-class punk bands of England in the '70s and '80s, Krawallbrüder are keeping the sound alive in Germany. Formed in 1993, the group's only original member, Pascal, has kept the band alive and kicking, releasing a handful of albums and singles throughout the 2000s, all while taking a stance on social issues like child abuse and right-wing violence. ~ Greg Heaney
