I faught at land, I faught at sea,
At hame I faught my Auntie, O;
But I met the devil an’ Dundee,
On the Braes o’ Killiecrankie, O.
An ye had been, &c.

Going Out In Style: Fenway Park Bonus Edition CD coming March 13th

by Mustard Finnegan on January 25th, 2012 at 5:29 pm
Posted In: New Releases, News

Lifted from http://www.dropkickmurphys.com/news/

Dropkick Murphys will release the Going Out In Style: Fenway Park Bonus Edition CD — an expanded version of last year’s Going Out In Style — on the band-owned Born & Bred Records March 13 (one week later than previously announced).

The Fenway Park Bonus Edition includes the Live From Fenway bonus disc, recorded on September 8 and 9 in front of 20,000 Dropkick Murphys fans at the band’s sold out headlining dates at Boston’s legendary ballpark.

Also included in the package is a download of the filmed concert at Fenway Park as well as the complete story of Cornelius Larkin by the band’s friend and best-selling author Michael Patrick MacDonald (All Souls, Easter Rising). The Cornelius Larkin story is an expansion of MacDonald’s Cornelius Larkin obituary that appears in the original Going Out In Style liner notes.

Bill Grogan’s Goat: Second Wind

by Mustard Finnegan on January 25th, 2012 at 1:56 pm
Posted In: CD Review

Looks can be deceptive. Looking at the band picture on the back side of the Second Wind sleeve (the 2nd album no less), Bill Grogan’s Goat (apologies to the band) look like a middle-aged folk rock band permanently stuck playing the Sunday opening spot of some poorly attended, Irish festive in some middle of nowhere, mid-Western state – the track list (all standards) doesn’t take away from the assumption. The music? We’ll its all that but just louder, faster and dirtier and more Motor City guitar riffs then you could ever imagine Irish folk to be. Iggy and The Stooges meets The Clancy’s Brothers and its good and at times skull crushing amazing – the version of Danny Boy is my song of the year so far – post grunge, industrial with a riff and tone that would make Tony Iommi proud. Kick out the jams Paddy Rockers.

Blood or Whiskey for Blackpool’s Rebellion

by Mustard Finnegan on January 19th, 2012 at 11:25 am
Posted In: Live, News

Ireland’s Blood or Whiskey have been added to the 2012 Rebellion festival in Blackpool, England. Joining BoW are fellow Celt’s The Real McKenzies. The band are currently back in rehearsals, gearing up for their fourth studio album. Its nice to see Blood or Whiskey back in the saddle again after the recent serious illness of front man Dug’s and record label legal crap.

Murder The Stout: 6 Track EP

by Mustard Finnegan on January 17th, 2012 at 6:34 pm
Posted In: CD Review

I remember reviewing a Murder The Stout album a few years back – rock solid Scottish and Irish ballad standards. In subsequent years, Hugh Morrison the Scottish born, Texas based vocalist and accordion player has cropped up on various Street Dogs tracks adding a Celtic touch to their street punk as will as becoming a touring member of the group. Well here the Street Dogs return the favor with Street Dog Johnny Rioux listed as a full band member and Street Dog Mike McColgan’s Boston accent going toe to toe with Morrison’s Scottish.  The music still remains rooted in the Scottish/Irish ballad tradition but now with just a touch more punk’n'roll. Murder The Street Dog’s anyone?

The Real McKenzies, new album out Feb 14th, Westward Sails

by Mustard Finnegan on January 13th, 2012 at 9:35 am
Posted In: News

Westward Sails, the new album from Canadian Scot’s the Real McKenzies is out Feb 14th on the Fat Wreck Chords label.

From the Fat Wreck Chords web site:

The Real McKenzies’ first new studio album in 4 years, Westwinds, will be hitting the shelves on March 27, 2012! Grab your kilts and whisky because these lads have already booked an extensive 2012 tour. Check out the cover art below and stay tuned for a new mp3 soon! Read what Gord McKenzie had to say about the record:

“We were holed up in Nanton, Alberta, Canada recording for over a month with award-winning producer and new friend, Steve Loree at Crabapple Downs. Our main idea for Westwinds was to create an all-electric album for our fans (to follow the all-acoustic record, Shine Not Burn). The goal was to release a great collection of songs that would not only make all of us McKenzies proud, but to also make that point that we’re not going anywhere anytime soon.”

The Ramshackle Army Join Dropkick Murphys on US Tour

by Mustard Finnegan on January 9th, 2012 at 11:07 pm
Posted In: Live, News

And the countdown to Paddy’s Day starts……..

Press release from The Ramshackle Army

Melbourne Celtic Punk band The Ramshackle Army is proud to announce that it will be embarking on its first American tour, playing the prestigious Celtic festival Shamrock Fest 2012 and joining Dropkick Murphys on their St Patricks Day Tour. For The Ramshackle Army, a band who began playing shows a short 18 months ago, this is the first significant step towards international recognition.

Dropkick Murphys are no stranger to the Australian punk scene regularly playing to huge sell out crowds countrywide. In October 2011, Dropkick Murphys toured with fellow US act Lucero, asking The Ramshackle Army to support on the tour’s final show in Melbourne, subsequently inviting them to embark on the North East Coast leg of the St Patrick’s Day Tour. The entire tour will be supported by Frank Turner & the Sleeping Souls, and will culminate in two massive shows on St Patrick’s Day.

Shamrock Fest has fast become one of the largest Celtic music themed festivals in the US, taking place the week after St Patricks Day. Showcasing 50 acts across 10 stages, in front of 30,000 people the music plays out beside pub games, “best male/female legs in a kilt” contest and all things Celtic.

“We’re honoured and grateful for such an amazing opportunity,” says vocalist Gaz Byrne. “We understand what this could mean not only to our band, but also to other great Celtic and punk bands coming out of Australia.” “This is going to be one hell of a ride.”

The Ramshackle Army tour dates:
9th March 2012 – House Of Blues – Atlantic City, NJ
10th March 2012 – Mohegan Sun – Uncasville, CT
11th March 2012 – Paramount Theatre – Huntington, NY
17th March 2012 – Tsongas Arena – Lowell, MA
24th March 2012 – RFT Stadium – Washington, DC (Shamrock Fest 2012)

The Best of 2011

by Mustard Finnegan on December 31st, 2011 at 11:27 am
Posted In: News

2010 was a big year for Celtic Punk with highly anticipated new releases by the big boys for the genre – Flogging Molly and the Dropkick Murphys as well as by other old favorites and a multiple of new bands. Like all lists, the Shite’n'Onions best of 2011 is an opinion of course and as they say about opinions, they are just like assholes, everyone has one. We try not to be assholes but its a top 10 so every release can’t be on it – that would defeat the purpose of a list. That said, since we’ve been at this lark 10 years we think our opinion is worth something. Finally, if you sent a CD for review and it wasn’t – sorry, we’ll try and get it done as soon as we can and hopefully we spun some tracks on the podcast anyway.

1 – Joint) The Mahones: The Black Irish

This choice was so frigging obvious, I’ve had an advance copy since December 2010 and The Black Irish set the standard for all challengers and none were able to dethrone. 20 years in the game and The Mahones are still giving it all they’ve got.

1 – Joint) The Radiators From Space: Trouble Pilgrim (US edition)

This is Philip Chevron of The Pogues legendary punk outfit. We loved the original release so much here that Shite’n'Onions spent a shite all of Mustard Finnegans retirement funds to release it ourselves and if that not a endorsement I don’t know what is. And (shameless plug) you can buy it right here.

 

2) Jack Flash: Jack Flash

Balls to the wall, aggressive, Aussie folk punk with a middle finger raised to their colonial overlords. A full review soon.

3) Sir Reg: A Sign Of The Times

I wish Flogging Molly made music like this these days. Keeping it from the top? Sir Reg need to add their own stamp a little more.

4) Horslips: Live At The O2

The Celtic rock originators and masters return and sound as fresh and as relevant as they were 35 years ago.

5) Bastards On Parade: Tales From The Death Shore

In your face, no punches pulled Celtic punk from Galicia (they say its part of Spain)

The next 7 in no particular order (who said you needed to keep a top 10 list to 10 anyway…..its still my feckin list)

IceWagon Flu: Off The Wagon 2

A collection of traditional Irish folk standards given the quirky Flu twist – totally original and totally infectious.

The Go Set: Another Round In Melbourne Town

What I would give to see these guys live……this is as close as l will get I guess

The Skels: Heading For The Kjnackers Yard

Only took ‘em 8 years but it was worth the wait…..almost

Sharks Come Cruisin: A Past We Forget That We Need To Know

Pirate folk punk from Rhode Island, their second release. How did I miss the first.

The Bloody Irish Boys: Auld St. Partick

Took ‘em a while but any doubts about this band are dispelled

The Langers Ball: Drunk, Sick, Tired

Their enthusiasm is infectious

Jack Flash is a Toowoomba born and based folk/punk six-piece with a unique brand of catchy, dancing tunes, lyrical genius and fancy flair. Originating in the spring of 2006 they developed a style which brings traditional Australian folk sounds and themes to a punk audience.

Jack Flash is influenced by such acts as Flogging Molly, Dropkick Murphy’s, Red Gum, The Pogues and The Bushwhackers Band. Drawing on a rich background of Australian, Celtic and American tunes, the Jack Flash boys have forged their own sound and deliver a fresh contribution to the Folk/Punk genre.

In the past four years the band has performed extensively around South East Queensland, with regular forays into New South Wales and Victoria. Jack Flash have had the honour of sharing the stage with a multitude of highly acclaimed international and local acts, including Leftover Crack (USA), Pack (Switz.), KC & The Moonshine Band (Canada), Unpaid Debt, Zombie Ghost Train, The Go Set, Sydney City Trash, Steve Towson, Blowhard and The Quickening
