wasnt it hank williams grandson??

Rebel Meets Rebel is 3/4 Pantera (i.e. everyone except Phil) and David Allan Coe, some country singer dude I never heard of before.

Hank Williams III is on one song, I believe, but he was more involved in Phil’s project Superjoint Ritual.

I’ve been looking to get into the Dropkick Murphys for a while now, which album would you recommend?

Headswim - Despite Yourself

Sing Loud, Sing Proud! has to be my favourite - the perfect blend of celtic tradition and punk power :-)
Blackout is also great, a more polished sound. The Gang’s All Here is great too, but rougher sounding and not much in the way of traditional instruments used.
I’d avoid Do or Die at first - a great album, but a different singer, so won’t give you the best idea of what they usually sound like.

I like Headswim too, by the way. Good stuff. Have you ever listened to Dan’s new band Black Car?

Thanks for the info on Dropkick Murphys, i remember hearing Skinhead on the MBTA and loving it but for some reason I never got any of their albums, strange for me as I usually buy a full back catalogue of a band based on 1 song!
I’ve heard a bit of Black Car but didnt really think much of it, its very acoustic and folky. I preferred Headswim when they plugged the amps in and played rock music although I do like ‘Despite Yourself’ even though it is very morbid in places, understandable I suppose considering the circumstances at the time.

I’ll let you know what I think of the Dropkick Murphys when I get an album.

Alkaline Trio / Hot Water Music Split

Awesome, I’m sure you’ll love it. One of my favourite punk albums by any band.

I’m now listening to:
Tindersticks - First Album

Prodigy - Their Law… Best of.

RINGO STARR - Y Not

Million Dead - Harmony No Harmony
Pantera - Vulgar Display of Power (revisiting some stuff from my relative youth)

Having a bit of a Downathon at the moment.

Down II is still my favourite.

love it!

Whacked on some Rebel Meets Rebel.

Cowboys smoke more dope than rock and rollers.

FACT.

Queens of the Stone Age - Lullabies to Paralyze or whatever it’s called.

Never really given it a proper listen before, but stuck it on as I read it had Billy Gibbons on one track, which I hadn’t even noticed before! Thoroughly enjoyed it, but I just can’t warm to Homme’s vocals. There’s nothing wrong with them, per se, just hard to warm to him.

Sherlock Holmes OST

THE BLACK HEART PROCESSION - Six

Bombshell Rocks - Street Art Gallery

Crippled Black Phoenix - A Love of Shared Disasters

The Smashing Pumpkins - Machina & Machina II
