Oi! bands...

too punk to drunk
I was chatting with an an ex-pat Pom friend of mine the other week about Oi! music. I mean my first impression of Oi! is that it's basically some sort of neo-Nazi post-punk..But it's more than that, rather the speed-and-booze blare of agro-working-class men. I guess Oi! was very much the post-Sex-Pistols punk type thing, just curious to know how it fit in to the whole 'post punk' canon? And who are the most fun, non-Nazi Oi! bands?...Another thing interesting about Oi! bands is their blary, raucous guitar sound, obviously working off Steve Jones crunchy raunch sound, I'm surprised no nu-Uk bands have riffed on this in recent times..?
