Oy_the_Great Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Even I somehow think there's an ocean of difference between punkrock fans and you: I have to say Flogging Molly and the Dropkick Murphys (and some other good bands like the Real McKenzies, Anti-Flag, the Mad Caddies, Bad Religion, the Clash, the Pogues) are good Irish-alike bands. The genre is a mixture between punkrock and folk with traditional instruments like the bagpipes, the accordeon and flutes. They don't sing in Irish though, just English. If you want true irish music, I'd advice Enya, Sinead O'Connor and the Dubliners. If you would have thought of using google or wikipedia, you'd stumble on this list that contains all famous (and there's quite a lot of them) Irish singers/bands.

Bubsa Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 You could always try some of Flogging Molly's stuff as well, although they're not actually Irish. This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azvareth Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Thin Lizzy? A lot of their songs were based on old irish folk music. Edit: There's also The Dubliners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
