Album Notes & Community Reviews
Exploding out of a Los Angeles pub residency, the seven-piece ensemble revitalized the Celtic punk subgenre with this fiery studio debut. Frontman Dave King's gravelly, deeply earnest songwriting is backed by an incredibly energetic collision of blistering electric guitars, traditional tin whistles, fiddles, and accordions.
