Who the fuck are they?
Loyalty are a 3 piece Oi band from Oxfordshire,England.The band were formed by bassist/vocalist Steve gale in january 1999.They recorded 2 demos with the old line up and since december 2000 the line up has been the same: Steve-Bass/vocals, Griff-Drums & Spike-Guitar.Their first gig was in march this year at Rotherham with Huddersfield band 'Scum'.Since then they have played in Belgium with Retaliator-At the famous De Kastelein skinhead pub-and have also supported Condemned 84 and Resistance 77 in High wycombe(see reviews page)The band have played 2 smaller gigs in Didcot and Norwich,and have since taken a short break from gigs to concentrate on their debut single.The single is due out towards the end of the year,and no doubt they will be back gigging to promote it.I have only see Loyalty the once, but from that appearance i can say that they are a very promising oufit.If you like your oi fast and furious and 'in your face' style,then check out Loyalty!
