Condemned 84 are an English Oi! band. According to their website, the band was formed in 1980 as Criminal Tendencies, changing their name in 1983 to Condemned, and in 1984 to Condemned 84.[1]
In 1986 one of their concerts turned into a riot. Earlier in the event there had been performances by several other Oi! bands, including The Business and Vicious Rumours, which drew a number of skinheads. Following the concert, some attendees attacked vendors, caterers and security staff. The concert itself had not been organized by Condemned 84.[2]
They are often confused with their contemporaries Combat 84 due to the similar band names and both bands having released albums on the same label, Rock-O-Rama.
