Booze & Glory

Booze & Glory formed in London in 2009 around vocalist Mark, guitarist Liam, bassist Bartez and drummer Mario. Mark, Bartez and Mario had grown up in Poland and were already known on the Polish Oi! scene before relocating to the UK, giving the band roots in both London street punk and Polish migrant punk.

The band's debut album, 'Always on the Wrong Side', came out in 2010 on 84 Records, followed by split EPs with Harington Saints and The Warriors and a second album, 'Trouble Free', in 2011. Their song 'London Skinhead Crew' became the band's best-known track, its video passing thirty-five million views on YouTube.

Bartez and Mario left in 2013 for family reasons and were replaced by Swedish drummer T. Cliché and bassist Bubbles. The band signed to Step-1 Music in 2014, releasing 'As Bold as Brass' that year, followed by 'Chapter IV' in 2017 and 'Hurricane' in 2019.

Lyrically the band sticks to British working-class subject matter, drinking, and pride in London and West Ham United, carrying an outspoken patriotism toward England. The band includes members of several nationalities and has taken a clear stand against the right-wing end of the skinhead scene, while staying otherwise apolitical.
