Hooligan (from Dublin) with scene veterans from Angelic Upstairs, Cockney Rejects and UK Subs started in 2009 and released their songs worldwide only on limited (sold out) 7" EP's. Now for the first time on vinyl here's the collector's retrospective long-player with all their hits!
Their sound is a brilliant mix of Street-punk, 77 Punk, Dub/Reggae and influenced from their main bands and classics like The Clash ("Calling Joe Strummer" is one of the best tribute songs)!, Addicts, Pistols up to Cockney Rejects or Undertones and many more. No wonder, 'cause these guys spent their youth in that great time together with the bands and the cover-artwork contains a picture of singer Dave in that decade.
"First offence" contains 12 songs that you shouldn't miss, if you're into that sound!
1. CRIMINAL DAMAGE
2. STREET PUNK HERO
3. CALLING JOE STRUMMER
4. PUNK ROCK 'N' ROLL
