If you are like me, you get tired of the same ol' music that a lot of the mainstream performers are pumping out nowadays. Well, let me suggest a change of pace. A rather amusing change at times.
If you haven't listened to them, find some way to listen to some before buying a CDÂ anything (surely you can find someone that might have some samples - hint hint...).
Two of my most listened to groups right now are Dropkick Murphys and Flogging Molly. These two bands have a bit of a style difference, but both are "Irish Punk/Alternative". Dropkick Murphys tends to be more Irish Punk than anything else. Flogging Molly is more what might be called "traditional" due to the instrument mix, and they are more rock/alternative. But as I mentioned, they are "Irish". So most of the songs are about drinking, which is always fun to listen to! But it is just a nice change to the mainstream U.S. stuff that is the same artist after artist with different lyrics.
So if any of you would like to give them a try, let me know and I might be able to link up a couple of the songs. A few good ones are "Finnegan's Wake" by Dropkick Murphys and "Salty Dog" or "Rebels of the Sacred Heart" by Flogging Molly.
