Maybe i should go to school again or make a french course as well...Maraboots is such a great band, but i don´t understand what they are singing about. First time i heard of them, was on the split with the german legends Stomper 98. And their sound really compares with them, especially the saxophone parts.

My favorite song? Everyone(ok if you really wanna know...Heros de la Oi is outstanding). Songs i don´t like? No one. Maraboots is beyond any doubt the best french Oi-Band in the last 10 years. Hope to hear from them again and again and again.....

Very short review, but it´s easier to write more about bad releases than good ones. "Dans La Nuit" is a must have Vinyl! Nothing more to say

Split - Maraboots/Stomper 98(2012) - Review

Tracklist:

Side A:

01. Maraboots - Neuski
02. Maraboots - Crepuscule

Side B

03. Stomper 98 - Ihr da Oben (Komintern Sect cover)
04. Stomper 98 - Realität (Camera Silens cover)

Maraboots and Stomper 98 are really similar in their sound. Both bands use a saxophone in their songs, and i have to say on this Split the victory on points goes to France.

The guys from Paris got the A-side and these 2 Songs are really great. Sounds like old frenchbands named Camera Silens,Komintern Sect and some Snix. Unfortunately  i don´t speak any word in french so i cannot tell you what the songs are about. But sometimes the music says enough, Maraboots is French Oi at it´s best.

The B-Side belongs to the german Oi-Legends Stomper 98. Their 2 songs are coverversions of 2 oiclassics from france translated to german. I knew these one´s before so it´s nothing special for me. And i don´t know if it´s necessary to put two already released songs on a split. Of course they are good, but in my opinion there should be at least one new song on a split EP.

UVPR is a great label, first of all. And this release is a must buy for lovers of french oi music. The B-Side is like a bonus for me, not really needed but ok.
