Condemned 84 is a British 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 on the Isle of Wight at the annual scooter rally one of their concerts deteriorated into a riot. Performances by several Oi! bands, including The Business and Vicious Rumours, drew a number of skinheads, and following the concert, some attendees attacked vendors, caterers and security staff.[2]

The band was part of the Rock Against Communism movement and released an EP in 2015 of these songs.[3]
