good irish rock

[laxrat22]

i'm looking for some good irish rock bands. flogging molly is one of my favorites and i want to find some bands like them, and don't say dropkick murphys

[dpolehh21]

off kilter is pretty good, its rock mixed withv bagpipes. no im not joking, their music isnt easy to find though.

[AttackMan17]

U2 all the way.

[lax4life6]

the tossers

[Kegger]

The Young Dubliners are a good rock band with a slight Irish sound although I am not sure if they are from Ireland or have Irish heritage. The Pouges are a very good band with an Irish sound although their lineup is different from when it started they are still an exceedingly awesome band. We can not forget Van Morrison he is not really a band but he rocks and he is from Ireland.

The Pogues.

The Rovers. They MAY be called The Irish Rovers. Can't really remember.

What exactly classifies as irish rock? Band members being from Ireland? Or is it a genre?

STOP SUGGESTING THE DROPKICK MURPHY'S HE SPECIFICALLY DIDN'T ASK FOR THEM.

That being said: www.allmusic.com search your favorite artists.

i must say flogging molly is amazing :clap:

i would also like to find some stuff like it

off topic: a friend of mine went to the dropkick murpheys concert a few weeks ago, he said it was pretty much just one giant fist fight... in other words amazing

i'm with you about flogging molly, they totally rock. unfortunately, they'res not a whole lot of good irish rock out there. i would go with the pogues or the young dubliners. if you're interested in slightly more traditional irish music, i would recommend either the dubliners (one of my favorite bands of all time) or the clancy brothers. it's not exactly "rock" so to speak, but some darn good drinking songs

like rock mixed with traditional irish folk music. bagpipes, fiddles, acordians, etc. i'm a sucker for a song with a mean fiddle

[HRLAXER]

haha you put good and irish rock in the same sentence. good irish drinking songs is diffrent. im not a fan of all the ra ra and grungy sounding guitars but the bagpipes are way sweet!!

[superlaxman2]

riverdance!!! I got their new album this week!!!JK

[xSURFERx]

flogging molly and the tossers are the only ones i listen too

[Mad-Max]

I have to go with everybody that's said Off Kilter, I saw them perform last year, and I really liked it.
