DROPKICK MURPHYS "signed and sealed in blood"
Irish/Boston group...
not sure how many albums they have now,probably somewhere up near ten maybe??
their music is rooted deep in irish trad.folk with a twist of punk, and yes heavy punk riffs
and fiddles/banjo's actually work well together...and this album stays true to that
tried and true method IMO,
a good album that scores
1.9 from me for my first new album of 2013...
from the album:
"the season's upon us"

"the boys are back"

"BTO....Bachman,Turner,Overweight
They were big in the 70s....for five minutes,on a Saturday,after lunch..." - Me 2014.

"going out in style" is their best album IMO, so i'd get that one first if i were you, pretty sure when i posted it a year or so ago in 'what are you listening to" it scored around 2.5ish
yeh, i love that xmasy one also, best track on the album IMO

I can't view the second link in this country apparently! I saw the Christmas one before and didn't think to share it. I really like it. I love the Boston Irish punks bands. They're so much fun.

Counting EP's and live discs, this makes 14 albums by my count, not including "greatest hits" sets. The live at Fenway DVD is killer! Saw them at Dublin Ohio Irish Fest in the past... oh, and The Warped Tour. Good Lads! Union supporters!
