I while back I fell into a Flogging Molly/Dropkick Murphys/Levellers sort of a mood. And I've got this song stuck in my head. I've listened to it something like a hundred times in the last week.

Flogging Molly - Factory Girls

Also a good song

Levellers - Dance before the storm

And my favorite Dropkick Murphy song is Captain Kelly's kitchenI

 

Which album do you like best? I bought their debut a few years back and liked it, especially tribulations, but not enough to look more into them.

 

Honestly, it's kind of a difficult choice. But in the end I have to go with This is Happening, with their debut as a second place and Sound of Silver a very near third.

Talking intros, I definitely prefer Dance Yrslf Clean, because I still really vividly remember how it felt to listen to it for the first time. I was listening to it with my focus elsewhere, because it started out as nothing special except for the beat, or so I thought at the time.
Then it ramped up three minutes in and I honestly fell in love.

And while Sound of Silver has the title track, Get Innocuous and All My Friends and the debut has Daft Punk and Losing My Edge - which, even though I don't really understand some of what it's talking about, is a pretty good slam of DJs and other bands - it can't compete with the triple goddamn whammy that is One Touch, I Can Change, and You Wanted A Hit. There's not a single song on TiH I'd ever skip no matter the mood I'm in, while New York I Love You (But You're Bringing Me Down) doesn't quite work for me and the debut doesn't quite have anything that reaches to the lofty heights of what Dance Yrslf Clean did for me. It's more dance-oriented, too, while the later albums kinda move away from that a little.

Like I said, if you're not hooked I get it, but if you like their debut I think you'd like all of their albums.
