Escuadron 88! stolen from Midgård Magazine

Hello Sebastian! Would you like to introduce yourself and the band Escuadron 88? Greetings. The band was created in 1996-1997, and it is the first WP skinhead band in our country. It kept on activity only a couple of years because several members were jailed between 1999 and 2001. In 2002, we tried to regroup the band without success. The NS scene remains very quiet until 2009 due to the strong persecution to the skinheads. In 2012 the band regroups with three new members; Ganda in the drums, Lucio playing the bass and Laika in guitar. Sebastian is the only member from the original formation. Escuadron 88 has participated in many concerts in Uruguay, Argentina and Brazil. The band’s albums are; a poor quality demo from 1998, a split with four songs in 2013, the same year the first album “Urban Warriors”, and in 2015 the EP “Resiste”. This year we will participate in a compilation album; “Independencia y Revolución”, with many RAC/WP bands from South America. How is everything going down in Uruguay these days? Has it only gone downhill since the lefts took over back in 2004? Yes, the reds had been in the government for more than 10 years now, and every year our country turns more and more decadent. They are destroying the occidental values in our society. The left wing brought their socialist laws like the legalization of marihuana, free unlimited abortion and homosexuality. Also criminality and drug abuse grown fast in the last 10 years. Uruguay is receiving a lot of immigrants too, mostly niggers from the Caribbean and peruvians. Traditionally, our society was formed by a huge working class of European descendents, mostly from Spain and Italy. Nowadays this is changing because of the low birth rate of white people and a growing population of blacks and mixed race. Regrettably, the left wing has been successful with this agenda… Uruguay does not have any conscription, but the army want to recruit gays? No conscription ever, and yes, must be some gay recruits. Uruguay has turned in a fucking paradise for faggots. They walk in the streets holding hands and kissing in front of the children, it’s disgusting. The gay lobby is very powerful in our country, there are homos in politics, economy and surely in the army too. Is it easy to be introduced to White Nationalism in Uruguay? Unfortunately people have no racial pride in Uruguay, so the white nationalism has never been popular at all. Most people hate white nationalist, and there are anti racist and antifa groups. We are living a “racial suicide” in Uruguay. The minorities can be proud of their race or condition, while we can’t say we are pride of being white without being called racist, accused of discrimination and even sent to prison. How were you introduced to White Nationalism? I’m proud of my European ancestors since I was a child, and I didn’t understand why was supposed to be ashamed of it. In school, teachers predicate multiculturalism and lie about our history. The white man created great civilizations and brought progress to every land he went. I HAVE NOTHING TO BE ASHAMED OF, I’M PROUD TO BE WHITE. Back in 1996 we formed the first WP skinhead group in Uruguay with some friends of mine. In these days we also edited a NS music fanzine called “Orgullo Skinhead” (Skinhead Pride) and collaborated with 14WordsPress and Katia Lane. We end up in prison in 1999 just for belong to a white pride supporter group. This didn’t discourage us and we tried to keep fighting for our ideas, but between 2001 and 2004 several street fights leave almost every uruguayan skinheads in jail. This taught us to work in a different way. Nowadays most of us have kids, and for me raising my daughters is the most important thing in my life because I have always lived by the 14 words. The struggle for a future for our race and our children continues, and someway Escuadron 88 is a way of keep fighting. Are you involved with an organization? To belong a white pride organization in our country is illega. How is it to be open with your political opinion in your country? Saying you disagree with the so called “democracy” makes you a proscript, and you will eventually get jailed. So, national socialist or fascist opinions are pursued. As I said in the previous question; forming an organization with these “politically incorrect” opinions it’s illegal. And how did you get hooked up making music? There wasn’t any RAC from Uruguay before us, we were the firsts to bring this music to our country. As everyone at first, I used to listen to Oi! And hardcore bands. Then I knew some RAC bands that blowed my mind. The first WP/RAC bands I listened to were Skrewdriver, Division 250, Klan and Estirpe Imperial. Would you like to introduce your new minialbum "Resiste!"? “Resiste” was recorded in April 2015 and it has 4 songs. “Indignados” (Outraged) it’s a song about our refuse for this decadent world, and our pride for our race will never die because we will never surrender. “Occidente” (Western) comes next, as the name says, it’s a song about defending our true values and western european culture. The third track “Ruta 88” (Route 88) is dedicated to Ganda (our drums player) and all motorcyclists that are proud of their race. The last song “Resiste” (Resist) is about standing in a world in ruins, resisting. Better times are coming comrades, our flag will fly again! Does Uruguay have any historical, or alive persons that have influenced white nationalists? No, as I said, the White nationalism in our country it’s something new (since 1996) and we are not influenced by any historical character because, in our opinion, no one openly defended white pride before. The music scene in you country. Is it big? Or are you a part of a bigger scene together with other South American bands? No, in our country the scene is small, we are few skinheads and true NS. Lately we struggle not only with the antifa scum, but also with white trash dressed like a skinhead and using our symbols, who have a lifestyle that totally disagree with the national socialist principles. Fortunately, we created a skinhead front with our brothers and sisters from Argentina and Sao Paulo (Brazil). The skinhead front organizes concerts, events and soon a shop with CDs and T-shirts. How is it with live gigs for Escuadron 88? We love concerts, is what we like most. Here in Uruguay we had organized just a few concerts, with a small amount of people, we played just for our friends. But in the last years we participate in a concert in Brazil with 60 people approximately, with other bands like Zurzir (Brazil) and Pelea de Ratas (Chile). The two biggest concerts we played in were in Buenos Aires with 100 people and our brothers' bands from Argentina Fides, Gladius and Nos Hicimos Respetar. People had told us we sound much better in live concerts than in our albums. In my opinion this is just because we are not a studio band, we are a band with strong feelings for the love of our race, and hate for the NWO who want to destroy it. That’s why our sound is powerful and aggressive. Which bands do you prefer listening to? I had listened to RAC for 20 years, it’s hard to say, but if I have to choose I prefer the 90’s bands like División 250, Klan, Ultrasur, Brigada NS, Max Resist, Bully Boys, Nordic Thunder, Aggravated Assault, Chaos 88, Natural Born Killers, AdL 122, Sud XT, Peggior Amico, Celtic Warrior, No Remorse, Konkwista 88, Kolovrat, etc. I also listen to new bands like Bronson, our brothers Fides Skins from Argentina, Bloodshed 88, and several spanish bands. Also like viking rock bands from Sweden; Ultima Thule, Hel, Pluton Svea of course, and Steelcaped Strenght (in my opinion the best). What is the future plans for Escuadron 88? Next month we plan to record two new songs for the Skinhead Front’s compilation called “Independencia y Revolución” together with Gladius, Fides y NHR, Pelea de Ratas, and Infractores from Brazil. We also are invited to a concert in December. Next year we are going to play in some other recitals and take a free time to compose new songs. Thank you for the interview. Last words out to Sweden is all yours. Thanks to you Andreas for giving us this space in Midgård Magazine and made us able to reach Sweden and many other european countries, thank you very much. We also want to invite the readers to download our music and watch our videos in youtube because we are running out of CDs copies right now. We hope to play in Spain and Italy in a couple of years. A salute to all skinheads from Sweden and Europe, never forget what we are fighting for, the 14 words!! WPWW
