Description

The "skinhead" tag encompasses music associated with skinhead subculture, ranging from working-class Jamaican ska and reggae that originally defined the movement to street punk and Oi! music that became its sonic backbone. The sound emphasizes raw, aggressive energy with simple chord progressions and anthemic choruses celebrating working-class pride and unity. This tag reflects a diverse musical tradition that has been claimed by various ideological factions throughout its history.
