Here's some Celtic folk punk for ya.

 

Their live concerts look like a fat party

 

I have listened to a few Dropkick Murphys songs since  I heard  'Johnny I hardly knew ya'  whilst watching  SOA   and I'd never heard of them prior to that song which was the backdrop to the IRA bloke getting shot. 

Since then I have enjoyed a couple of their songs.

Although similar, this is not the Dropkick Murphys - the band's name is Flogging Molly.

 

In fact, your posting of the Dropkick Murphys song reminded me of this one.

Yes sorry I wasn't clear, I was meaning as in a  similar genre (sort of celtic punk) to Flogging Molly. The only reason I had heard of Flogging Molly was You tube lined up songs as recommended  and they came up.  Probably from searching Dropkicks Murphys previously. Also a band  The O reilly's and Paddy Hats came up,  a few of their videos were enjoyable. 

 

Not a genre I was very familiar with but I am enjoying exploring.

I stumbled across these guys a while ago. I thought to myself ,"well there you go you do like some new stuff after all." And then I read that they take flak for sounding like Led Zeppelin.

I'm not so into the live stretching it out thing anymore but they are a gatskop rock band.

My favourite song.

You've seen The Departed I presume.

I think it's because they're the short version.
