Every major holiday has a soundtrack. Christmas, obviously, has its carols. Valentine’s Day can be summarized through a mix CD containing the Three Wise Men of Love: Marvin Gaye, Al Green and Barry White. Halloween has the “Monster Mash”. St. Patrick’s Day belongs to Flogging Molly, the LA-based Irish-punk band whose fourth studio album Float only further solidifies them as the quint
The age old adage that punk is dead has never been truer... and in the case for Flogging Molly, thank God. When Flogging Molly blitzed onto the punk scene with Side One Dummy in 2000, they helped breathe life into the dying genre. Sly comparisons were made to their likeness to The Bouncing Souls, The Dropkick Murphys, or even a distant one to The Pogues, but as the years progressed so did the c...
Some may find it impossible to have a St. Patrick's Day hangover on February 10th. However, if a Flogging Molly show is involved, somehow is all makes perfect sense.Flogging Molly's Green 17 tour rolled through Detroit on a fridged Saturday evening that showcased some material from the band's upcoming album, Float, due out March 4th. This was the first time I have seen the band live and from ...
Sunday was a hard and lovely day. The day started with me struggling out of bed at 8:30 to get a bottle of water and collapse back on the couch for some more sleep. The night before was spent celebrating a friend's 30th birthday, and I was appropriately hung over. The hangover was bad enough, but the temperature had plummetted into single digits overnight. I had a double-date with "Flogging...
Laura was amazing, as we can tell from the song, and she's gone. but he loved her. the song speaks to me of lots of things. it's kind of bittersweet. possibly their best song. in my opinion.

It's because tonight I''m drinking rum from an antique silver chalise. i couldent go on with the redneck charade for too long. sadly I find myself livin in the suberbs in a decidedly yuppie neighbourhood. My punk'/ revolutionary self writhes most uncomforatbly at this turn of fortune. but I must pirate on in secrate. For I am lothe to find my...
Most of the kiddies are already on their way or already in LA prepping for a weekend filled with *music, madness & mayhem !!!* I am still at work - getting all my ducks (*qack qack* - as Chase would say) in a row & printing out a ton of google maps for all the places we will go come Friday ;)I am beyond excited, but there's still so much to be done !!! Gotta finish packing (I have organized p...
I promise to avoid cliches, alcohol stories, and Irish jokes on this St. Patrick's day. To avoid making this post a cultural catastrophe, I'll try to focus on the music. You may or may not know this, but fact remains that I am a sucker for good punk-celtic fusion. This phenomenon has no explanation, no reason, no end. It just is so, and has been since the first time my ears were exposed to it. ...
We have all been there, you see your favorite band is touring, but not coming anywhere close to where you live. It seems this problem may have just been solved, god bless the internet.
