Ukrainian Oi! punks Cios charge forward with their new album Caveman Traditions (Печерні традиції), released July 4, 2025. Out now via a coalition of underground labels including PASIDARYK PATS (Lithuania) and Abbruch (Germany), the record is a blistering, no-frills document of defiance, crafted under the weight of war and resistance.
Caveman Traditions features 10 tracks delivered in both Ukrainian and English—shifting between local roots and global punk solidarity. Songs like “new establishment,” “War for War’s Sake,” and “Totalitarian Regime” tear through corruption, violence, and authoritarianism with blunt force. Each track is raw, fast, and deeply intentional—recorded without producers to preserve the band’s urgent DIY spirit.
Pressed on limited yellow-marbled vinyl (310 copies) and available digitally, this release is more than a record—it’s a snapshot of survival through sound. Direct, furious, and unfiltered, Caveman Traditions channels classic Street Punk energy into something uniquely modern and regionally vital.
Cios aren’t just playing punk—they’re living it. And in Caveman Traditions, they’ve delivered a powerful statement for the global scene.
