Customer Reviews
one more good release...
Once again dropkick murphys do deliver the goods...good tunes, well played and recorded, 4 stars fully deserved!!!
I got the limited edition for the extra-dvd, but I have to say I was a bit disappointed as it's nothing special.
The extra tracks are ok: special mention for a good cover of Jailbreak (Thin Lizzy).
Irish / American Rock at its Best
This by far one of the best rock bands in the uS right now. To bad they do not get their deserved dues. A true Party Band if ever there was
This CD is full of Rock & roll mixed with traditional Irish folk songs done with a different twist.
The best Among the songs is (F)Lannigan's Ball with guest vocals from Ronnie Drew and SpiderStacy of the Irish group The Pogue's. They also do a cover from another Irish band 'Thin Lizzy's' Jailbreak.
Also included in this Limited Edition set is DVD with the State of Massachusetts and the behind the scenes of the Murphy's.
If you want to listen togreat rock and something to party to, this is the CD!!!
Really Grows on You
Typical modern Dropkick Murphys sound and songs, that just grow on you so well the more you listen. Some real standouts that become instant classics such as State of Massachusetts, Echoes on "A" Street, and of course Flannigans Ball.
