The Corps is beast! There was a time that this band from Down Under didn’t impress me much, but ever since the “Oi! Ain’t Dead” 4-way split on Rebellion Records came out last year I can’t stop listening to these maniacs. So after hearing that split buying “Know The Code” was pretty much a no-brainer for me.

 

The Corps aren’t your typical Oi! band though the sound is heavy, the vocals are mean as fuck and the pissed-off lyrics make you think twice before you even think about fuckin’ around with these guys! Musicly The Corps still take that 80’s British Oi! sound from bands such as Condemned 84 and Close Shave, mix it with that hardrockin’ sound of their fellow countrymen Rose Tattoo, give it their own twist and manage to deliver a sound that’s quite unique, even with this fourth full-length!

“Know The Code” holds 9 tracks of Australian fury and with songs such as “Talk Is Over”, “Bad Men”, “Know The Code”, “Draw The Line” and “Angry Young Man” this is without a doubt their most brutal, aggressive and powerful record to date! A definite must-have for anyone who’s into angry and violent music!!!

 

"Know The Code" is out for a few months now, and you would be a fool not to pick this gem up. The Australian scene is rising up again and Marching Orders belong to the top of this scene, or any scene for that matter. Superb!
