Oi Polloi's first studio recording was a demo entitled Destroi the System, which is believed to have been released in 1984 or 1985. After the now defunct music weekly Sounds gave their previous home-recorded demo a favourable review, demand increased for gigs further afield. A second studio demo, Green Anarchoi followed before the release of the first vinyl offering, Resist the Atomic Menace. The line-up of the group has starred an impressive fifty members since their formation, making up the countless incarnations of the band. The band is currently based in Scotland.

G.L.F. Lyrics

Oi Polloi

Slavishly conform
To the system's norms
And if you know what's best
Don't stand out from the rest

Sheeplike mentality
Oppressing you and me
Braindead fools
Taunted you at school
But gingerheads are good in bed
And carrot tops know how to rock
Conformist system we must smash
Hear our rockin' readhead thrash

The abuse and ridicule of those
Of different physical appearance is symptomatic
Of a sick system bent on enforcing
Conformity and suppressing the individual

NO!

Ginger Liberation
For kids of all nations
Open your eyes wide
Strike a blow for redhead pride

GINGE LIB NOW!
