by The Pox Men

supported by

Dónal Daly An awesome blend of folk and rock that conjures the psychedelic weirdness of the Donegal hills in places. In Bog Surfer the lads have a riff Jack White would kill for. Highly recommended. Favorite track: Bog Surfer.

about

"Like a drunken waltz through the ballrooms of No Romance,this is unbelievable fare from start to finish, and if Post-Punk met Thin Lizzy and the Horslips, at a Pogues gig on acid this would be the result! It's astonishing and compelling listening, it's like listening to twisted old ballads played by a drunken Fall, with a demented scarecrow singing! It's sinister, scathing, and rebel rousing stuff with a satirical, comical edge! Never heard of these Donegal lads before, but now I will seek them out! This makes Celtic punk sound like the brotherhood of man, ugly, twisted and beautiful in all parts! 10/10"(Album review by Deklan Dachau/ Paranoid Visions)

"What's not to like? Sweet and Tender, and I'm glad St.patrick didn't banish the snakes!" (Barry Devlin, Horslips)
