Rudimentary Peni did it better and earlier. This sounds like a ripoff of those guys.
Does Yas Forums like Oi punk?

A decent amount. The production is usually horrible even by punk standards and a lot of the bands are very obvious trend hoppers trying to appeal to whatever happened to be popular with white working class kids at the time. Hence why so many of them started making butt metal in the 90s;

In the short time of Légion 88's existence, the band would produce some raw, unrestrained, furious and scuzzy music France's underground had ever laid ears on. If you want to hear Oi! and Hardcore done just a little bit differently, then "Légion 88: 1984-1987" is the definitive CD for you, compiling virtually everything these Odin-runed skinheads ever put to record, including some tracks from the scuzzy, chaotic live album and the primitive demo. Hell, there's even a bit of Blitz-style Post-Punk in there too, especially in the occasional 'atmospheric' guitar lines and militaristic heavy beats topped off with the addition of harsh and vicious vocals.
Nothing more than raw, roughshod, confident Punk striding boldly and fiercely. Some of this stuff is straight-up creepy-crawly 80s Goth with a shaven head--listen to "Violence Nocturne" and tell me that riff doesn't sound like it could come from some prime Deathrock. In the same way that there's some kind of spiritual parallel between Landser and Absurd, I'd bet anything Peste Noire took some cues from all these old French RAC bands. That baroque sense of melody, the silly hooligan ethos, the dungeon atmosphere and fetishism for all things Medieval and rustic in general, etc.

>A decent amount
Define decent amount. Name bands, you dip.
I would not have made the Rudimentary Peni comparison for New Glory, although it would apply a little more to Légion 88.
Full disclosure: I listen to quite a bit of Anarcho and Crust Punk. Likewise, I have more than a few favorites there, although I listen to them much less these days

fucking hell whoever made this is a LEGEND

Imagine LARPing as a 57 year old who's nostalgic for some 1980s cringe

So you hear to similarities between those guys and early Rudimentary Peni?
The one you posted might be a bit faster tempo wise but it has a similar sound imo. They probably listened to R.P. and why wouldn't they?
Not that fond of crust punk to be honest, i prefer the anarcho punk stuff. personally i usually go for rabid hardcore.

First thing's first, I absolutely love the illustration for this LP. Unlike crude photographs or amateurish scribblings decking the covers of most RAC records, "Sangre de Conquistadores" lives up to its title, featuring the Death Knights of Krynn cleverly edited with our heroes bearing arms while riding horseback upon demon-eyed stallions. The back's graphic design isn't shabby either, and the band certainly looks quite menacing. Unlike the brittle production values of their compatriots north of the Pyrenees, everything here sounds perfect. The guitar's fierce tone drives much of the album, and bass plays more than an auxiliary role. Nothing on the drum kit is too loud or too soft. Most charming is our vocalist, who brings a surly, whiskey timbre that wouldn't sound a world away from what I imagine a Spanish Lemmy would possibly sound like.
The songs here are consistently midpaced rockers with lyrics covering history to modern western cultural issues. Much like other RAC bands, División 250 includes a couple of acoustic ballads, including the closing track dedicated to the unit which the band derived their name; curiously, they decided to put that track first on the CD reissue. Paying tribute to James I of Aragon in Catalan, "Mai deixarem que tornen" features the bass playing a very prominent role, giving the song a distinct groove guiding the song from start to finish.
