The Ejected - Alien Abduction
The Ejected were the Riot City Records band from Dagenham who's flame flickered for a couple of years or so during the early 80's before seemingly being snuffed out. They briefly returned in 1999 to record tracks for the Captain Oi! Best Of album before reforming properly in 2014. A single (Dead Man Walking) and album (Back From The Dead) followed, they even made it onto this very blog with this modern day classic : http://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.co.uk/2016/06/the-ejected-cops-are-coming.html.
With the current oi scene being the strongest it's been for years, it's a good time for them to release a new album. Out earlier this month on Randale Records that album is titled Game Of Survival and it's definitely not a case of a band trading on former glories. You can get it here : http://www.randaleshop.de/product_info.php?products_id=13156
The line up of The Ejected in 2017 still has original vocalist Jim Brooks and he's ably supported by Jonny Romain (guitar/vocals), Paul Berry (bass/vocals) and Toby Thacker (drums). New line up, same catchy and humerous sing alongs. There's also Jim Brooks' Ejected artwork, an example of which you'll see at the top of this page.
I'll play the title track from Game Of Survival on Tuesday's Just Some Punk Songs show (https://www.facebook.com/events/525634891105645/) whilst today going with the first video from the album. This is Alien Abduction.....

The Ejected - Cops Are Coming
The Ejected are from Dagenham (London) and were one of the many great 80's bands to sign for Riot City Records. They released a couple of albums (A Touch Of Class, The Spirit Of Rebellion) and several 7"'s before calling it a day (and morphing into pop/reggae band The New Hawaiians).
They got back together briefly in 1999 but a more permanent reformation occurred in 2014 and this new lease of life for the band has brought about a new album, on Randale Records, called Back From The Dead.
As you can tell from the video posted below, the new material has definitely been worth the wait. This is Cops Are Coming.....
