New full-length from Beton Arme from Montreal, Canada, released on La Vida Es Un Mus. Eleven fist-pumping OI punk tracks with a very driven and melodic backing. Athemic gang vocals that make you feel like you're right on the field supporting your favorite faction in a football match. While the lyrics are all in French, the familiar feelings of an album with intentions of smashing racism, supporting your community, and upping the punx stand as an international language. This is easily a staff pick and probably a top pick for the year.
