The new disc from Boston's own Dropkick Murphys is an interesting set of tunes. Along with the rollicking fun tracks they are known for, they offer a distinctively serious side as well. Their arrangements featuring an amalgam of traditional Irish folk and hard-headed punk rock is both unique and derrivative of bands like the Pogues. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
The band's latest includes moving tributes to fallen hometown heroes, funeral dirges and folk tunes that tell a story, along with their usual alcohol-fueled brutality. Highly recommended!

Start where you are...
Use what you have...
Become the change that you want to see in the world.
Enough for Everyone's Need, Not for Everyone's Greed...
Live simply so that others may simply live.
Become the Media
Don't listen to the one-sided corporate-owned media. They are not in the business of finding the truth. They are only concerned about making money for themselves and their stock holders. If they do report the truth, it is only because it suits their business plan. A happy accident...
Become the media! Blog it, film it, record it...
You still have credibility... They don't.
