Pressure 28

Pressure 28 is one of them bands with far-right sympathies, but claims the banner of “apolitical” or, as many within the grey zone themselves would say “fuck politics”. Besides the Blood&Honour acronym “28”, Pressure 28 themselves claims that its completely unrelated and that they adapted the name of a scooter club with the very same name.

Expect for just playing with the “light” racist type, Pressure 28 have also played gigs with full on Neonazis such as the likes of Endstufe, Antonellas Klasse Kriminale etc. They are also well involved with gigs organised by veteran Neonazi music promoter Jade Griffiths and her “Unstoppable Hate Distribution”, as well as Blood&Honour promoter Vicky Pearson.

Also worth noting, Pressure 28’s singer, Kevin Gough, have spent time in jail after being convicted of distributing material to incite racial hatred. Also, back in 2013 UK Subs pulled out from a gig featuring Pressure 28, due to the undeniable Neonazi connections. Even though UK Subs at first didn’t care much about Pressure 28’s far-right connections, they eventually had to pull out when it became to obvious. You can find read more on that here.
