Happy St. Paddy’s Day you lot! Time to celebrate with some Celtic punk from the finest band in the genre!
Fronted by authentic Dubliner Dave King, Flogging Molly combines the furious energy of punk rock with the traditional instrumentation and upbeat sound of Irish folk music into a blistering combo that’ll leave you wanting to dance, drink and fight all at the same time. Being fronted by a real Irishman instead of other bands in the genre like the very Bostonian Dropkick Murphys, Flogging Molly has a real bitter, sarcastic core to their lyrics that suits Irish humour and culture very well instead of just focusing on working class pride or drinking.
‘Drunken Lullabies’ is an absolute tune, and might be familiar to anyone who played the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater games, but you know what? Who cares about any of that? It’s fun, it’s upbeat and it’s Irish as all hell, so stick this on, go out and get absolutely leathered, and enjoy the hell out of today!
